E is for Eat This

#AtoZChallenge 2022 Blogging from A to Z Challenge letter

Today's Eating the Alphabet A to Z Challenge post* is dedicated to the letter "E" and presented in haiku:


Eclair or Long John?
One is pastry, one donut
The donut is best




Golden ear of corn
You are summer on a cob
Just watch out for worms



Beans of ebony
Why must you fall from my fork?
You drop like goat poo



Edible or not?
You have sat in fridge some time
Test on husband first



Oh, edamame!
Food for us and feed for cows
We all would like mooooooooooore




*okay, so I didn't have time to make anything or buy anything, because I had to go to my dad's and take him to the doctor for a procedure, and of course, I hadn't pre-planned anything, so this is it

      Thanks, Mimi! My husband has grown wary of me handing him food and saying "see if this is okay"!

    Test on husband first. Good idea. Guinea pig ready. Believes wife knows best regarding food.

      If we had a dog, I guess I would try it before the husband, but since we don't.... :)
      The A to Z is so much fun, isn't it?

    I laughed at your line about testing the stuff that's been in your fridge for a while on the husband. Brilliant!

    Donut, pastry, I don't care--I love them all! I liked the line "Summer on a cob"--memories of summers past.

      Same, but still prefer the donut! Glad you liked the line. I felt pretty artsy with it, since I'm actually a terrible poet!

      That's a long john, and it was DELICIOUS! It was originally going to be part of my "D" post that fell through!

    There is a local bakery in my hometown well known for their Eclairs. I enjoy a bite or two but they are super sweet. Weekends In Maine

      Donuts are one of my favorite food groups, along with pizza, ice cream, and hamburgers :D
