Today's prompt from the Daily Post:
What is your favorite sweet thing to eat? Bread pudding? Chocolate chip oatmeal cookies? A smooth and creamy piece of cheesecake? Tell us all about the anticipation and delight of eating your favorite dessert.
Today the Campus Ministry team was distributing free donuts
in the lobby of our Academic Center. Happy students were entering and exiting
with donuts in their hands and smiles on their faces. It doesn’t take
much! I too enjoyed a cinnamon twist
donut – my favorite!
A while back I wrote this poem about my preference for
sweets:
Picky Eater
Happy Easter - my favorite holiday
because of the Peeps -
squashy marshmallow chicks
bright yellow or magenta,
so much more tasty when stale.
My menu ran to
creamy sugar crusted Whitman’s floral mints
colored like pastel chalk,
shaped like fruit and flowers.
Also, cinnamon ,butter and sugar on toast,
cherry popsicles
I stubbed my big toe on the sidewalk as I ran
up the street to the popsicle truck.
Also, coconut slices colored like watermelons,
sugar donuts.
The grittiness is all.
