What was it
again my mind strays
Trying to figure
that mysterous ingredient
with which she cooked
That which touched my palate
and made the memory
a long yearning
To make it again
I still try to figure
whilst making the same recipe
a dream to make it right
What was it .......
there my mind goes astray again

Memories of childhood food always seem to taste better than our attempts at recreating it! LOL, at least to start. I think of the memories I made with my kids and how my humble efforts might play a role in their memories.
ReplyDeleteI have tried to recreate some of Mom's recipes, but they never quite taste the same.
