Just Humor Me!

  Re: (...)
My book is done and at the printers. We had a bottle of champagne with our steak and (home grown) roasted potatoes, plus a bottle of Syrah. AND, it's a T.G.I.F.

We both know we shouldn't work this afternoon, so pardon all the threads I've pulled up. I'm going to go read my book now and try to stay away from the computer, where I get in trouble on days like this.

Oh! What a book!!
What to do with leftovers,
soon to be on "Nook"
A magical manipulation of do-overs.

A magician she is,
with a mystery box every night.
What can I do with this!?
Why, she makes it work, just right.

Chopped champions should consult
this lady, who is so prolific.
To them it would be no insult
to consider her book, it's terrific!!!

Daphne, the meter is not perfect, but the poem is for our girl, the chef terrific!! Congratulations, Jean (and Roy).

Just sent to the printers. Just a P.S. - I designed the cover, but it just wasn't good enough, and our Laura came to my rescue. She manipulated things and just made them pop. Thanks so much Laura!!!
