Head over to Tabatha Yeatt's blog,
The Opposite of Indifference, for this week's
round-up of poetic goodness.
Thanks, Tabatha, for hosting this week!
When our good friends, the Grahams (part of our chosen family), come to visit, we eat our way through Pike Place Market. This poem captures a few favorites from members of our family both present and absent with a nod to Macaroni and Cheese Day and a link to a recipe.
A Family Stroll
through Pike Place Market
Hum bow at Mee Sum, Blake’s best treat
Macarons at the Le Panier, Lauren’s love
Piroshkys because
Walt wants them & is willing to wait
A stop by Three
Sisters Bakery for cookies for all
and sourdough bread
for Lance
Peaches and cherries and
green beans for later
And the final stop?
For Beecher’s mac & cheese, Sara’s favorite,
Heaven in a cardboard
container!

I LOVE this! The mini donuts are the only thing missing, and the crepe place...and...and...and. A single poem cannot contain th bounty of the market, but I love this one for highlighting favorites!
