Bread, Butter, Bacon, Burgers, Brownies and Bananas

#A Nod To My MOTHER Who LOVED Her BLACKEYE PEAS. "So Do I", If Cooked GOOD..."YES PLEASE!" A GREAT "B" LETTER FOOD... BROCCOLI BOK CHOY BERRIES BEETS (THESE ARE THE TYPE OF "BEATS" I LIKE...SAID A NON BEET EATING ENTHUSIAST ONCE!) BRAN (I BARELY RARELY EVER MEET SOMEONE WHO HAS A LONGING FOR A "BOWL OF BRAN" I THINK IT'S JUST NOT A TYPICAL TOPIC OF RELISHING ROBUST FLAVORFUL DISCUSSION.) I'M ACTUALLY COMPELLED TO EXPRESS ABOUT THE OTHER "B,B,B,B,B & B" A.K.A. BREAD/BACON/BUTTER/BEEF/BROWNIES AND BANANAS... BREAD: "KETO" "GLUTEN FREE" "FLOURLESS" NO MATTER THE TYPE... NO MATTER THE HYPE... I LOVE "IT" AND IT LOVES ME BACK... LIKE, I'M GOING TO STICK LIKE GLUE TO YOU PADDING PACK, "SAY, HEY...IT'S JUST WHAT WE DO...EVEN DIETETIC "RYE" ON THE SLY, LOVES YOU...DON'T TELL "IT" I TOLD YOU! BACON: A CHILDHOOD FAVORITE, A TEEN FAVORITE, AN ADULT FAVORITE, A CANNOT LIE I'LL ALWAYS LOVE THIS TASTE FAVORITE ACCORDING TO MOST PACKAGES, NITRATE FREE PREFERABLY..."TWO WILL DO!" THE BACON FESTS MY CHILDHOOD BEST FRIEND AND I SHARED WOULD HAVE LAUGHED AT THAT UPROARIOUSLY... LIKE SERIOUSLY? "HA!" BUTTER: PLANT BASED "BETTER FOR YOU THIS LACED" MARGARINE NOT AN OPTION AT MY SPACE...WHAT'S A BETTER OPTION THAT WON'T SACRIFICE TASTE? SOMETHING YOGURT BASED...PERHAPS? "BUTTER" SUNFLOWER OR SWEET CREAM DO YOU DARE DEEM? LOL! BEEF: "DOES IT DO A BODY GOOD? " ALL I KNOW IS, THAT A PRIME PATTY TASTE SO DARN GOOD...«PREMIUM IDEALLY»CONSISTENCY: OCCASIONAL, I MEAN REALLY...IT CAN FEEL REALLY CHALLENGING EATING SALADS ONLY IN THE WINTER! IT'S 10° BELOW ZERO...CAN I GET A ROMAIN RAW RAW RAW EVERYTHING RAW SALAD, COLD AND CRISP? QUITE A MATCHING EMPHASIS! HOW BOUT' SOME HOT CORN"BREAD" A N D "BUTTER"... THAT MAY CREATE SOME "BELLY JELLY" BUT, I'LL FEEL JOLLY! (AROUND CHRISTMAS TIME WITH HOLLY!) "IT'S THE TRUTH, RUTH!" :-) BROWNIES: A PERFECT BROWNIE IS ABSOLUTE HEAVEN! THE PERFECT EARTH ANGEL HAS TO MAKE IT... NOT A "COOKIE CUTTER" PROCESS AND IT REQUIRES A VERY SPECIAL HAND TO DO A BROWNIE JUSTICE... ANYTHING OVER-SUGARY OR NOT MOIST BUT DRY AS DIRT... "HURTS MY SOUL" I'LL JUST DO WITHOUT, SADLY... NO DOUBT! I HAVE TASTED *PERFECTION* ONCE FORTUNATELY... BAR NONE! {SMILE} BANANA: I LOVE BANANAS! I'LL NEVER FORGET...I ATE ONE ONCE, AND THIS PARTICULAR ONE WAS THE BEST I'VE EVER TASTED! I BELIEVE IT WAS FROM ECUADOR OR PERU...IT COULD HAVE BEEN FROM "NEPTUNE" BECAUSE I NEVER FORGOT IT... I COULD WRITE AN ENTIRE SEGMENT ON "IT" AND DESCRIBE MY EXPERIENCE.. BIT BY BIT, LEGIT! I TRULY THINK THE UNIVERSE GIFTS US WITH "ONCE IN A LIFETIME" EXPERIENCES *THESE* GIFTS... UNFORGETTABLE UPLIFTS AND SHIFTS! SAME WITH SOUTHERN BANANA PUDDING! "A LADY FROM A SOUTH SIDE SHOP" EVERYONE ELSE CAN TAKE A SEAT "HER'S CANNOT BE BEAT!" I WILL THINK OF HER IN MY AFTERLIFE... "THAT GREAT!!!!!" aBcdefg... "B" FOODS REALLY STAND OUT TO ME! I APPRECIATE YOUR ENGAGEMENT WITH RELATING TO "THIS" IN ANY WAY... I LOVE WATERMELON AND WAFFLES... DO YOU? {SMILE} I'LL FEATURE "W" FOODS FOR NEAR FUTURE CONVEY AND I WON'T "WING" IT... TO "W"RITE WHAT EXCITES* FROM ME TO YOU... I'LL "B"RING IT! ON THE DOUBLE: "UU" "C'MON...I HAD TOO!" :-) Renee D Gross {GHPPR} August 27, 2023
