My grandpa recently turned 80 years old. My family and I knew we had to do something unique for him on this special occasion, so our entire household got together and created a cookbook full of the recipes we love that Grandpa makes. My grandpa is an outstanding cook, creating wonderful dishes that vary from Swordfish Dumplings to Pumpkin Cheesecake. For this week’s Food blog post theme, I decided I was going to write a poem about how much joy all of his recipes bring to my family.
Dishes clanking, family chatting,
You’re in the kitchen cooking, but there’s still time for laughing.
A variety of smells fills the air, but they come together somehow.
You shout, “Come to the table, dinner’s ready now!”
You serve each bowl with care while children eagerly wait.
We finally dig in; your cuisine always gets a “5 Star” rating.
Next, you bring out the very last course.
Again, you serve with care, never with force.
The chatting stops everyone easily finishing their plate.
Soon, the room erupts in “That was great!”
Your food not only brings love, joy, and cheer,
It brings family together, where all problems disappear.
