Okay, I'm starting this thread for the poetically inclined who would like to publish their poems about recipes or cookbook authors that just haven't worked out for them. Well, I guess you could publish happy poems about good recipes too. I'll start.
JKL's Dreena Burton Haiku:
Lemon Chickpea soup
"Why is Mommy mad at us?"
Dreena winter gone.
BBQ tofu is still what I favor
Little saucy cubes, no need to waver
NOM NOM NOM NOM
What? What's that you say?
"STEP AWAY, STEP AWAY!"
But so quick and so tasty, I'm not yet near done
It's just that you've had so many...
You just might become one!
I just learned that the reason so many people do not like cilantro is because they lack a certain enzyme or something. It makes it taste like soap to them! :P
Thanks for explaining why my best bud raves over something that I can best describe as tasting like soapy cat pee!
Do you suppose there's any correlation between people who don't like the taste of cilantro and people who have "horse pee" from eating asparagus?

I thought everyone had asparagus pee! I have since researched the subject, and found this:
"In 1980, Israeli researchers performed a similar experiment but asked the nonexcretors to smell the excretors’ urine. Shockingly, they found that everyone’s urine smells after eating asparagus; it’s just that some people can’t smell it. So they, too, divided the world into two camps: perceivers and nonperceivers." Hm! I think we should do an asparagus pee poll...
I think the week is up! :^

Yes, you are right. The entries must be in by dinnertime on Friday and then the panel of judges will decide.
are your children fond of poems full of childish humor? cause immaturity is one of my specialties. >:D
well, truth be told any scatalogical reference would probably clinch it
all those taste veg'
in my tummy, truth be told;
lots of poos for me!
Ah, ha, ha, ha.....it's about time we had a poo haiku!
How about a fart-ku?
chili, cheese, hot dogs
gastric distress on a bun
by-standers beware!
That would be vegan chili, vegan cheese and tofu dogs, of course!
I see I'm going to have to order extra prizes.
