#VerseLove, Prompt 21, Try to Write Cheesy, But If Not, Go with a Food Worthy of a Poem. Well, Okay, Then

I knew when I saw a prompt to tap good food, there's nowhere else I could go than Alice's Kentucky Cake (although someone said, you love your horseradish cheese, Crandall). On Day 21 of #VerseLove, I couldn't help but aim for the graduate school ritual of the chocolate chip ganache cake that has become an end-of-the-semester habit for workshop nights and writing.

I simply had to tap a rhythm for beating the cake and remember to get all the parts just right - enough so bakers could know enough about what they need to play with.

Ha! It's Saturday. I am looking forward to a couple of days of reading, editing, processing, and creating. The lawn is mowed, I'll clean the house, the laundry will get done, and I have the 21st poem of the month.

Here's to good eating, should it come your way. Bon Appetite! And if you can get some goodies into your stomach, that's a bonus, too.
