HAPPY NEW YEAR HAPPY NEW YEAR HAPPY NEW YEAR HAPPY NEW YEAR
HAPPY NEW YEAR HAPPY NEW YEAR HAPPY NEW YEAR HAPPY NEW YEAR
Yesterday... Had accumulated points at the grocery store worth 90 cents per gallon of gas expiring yesterday, so I HAD to go shopping to use them. And since I was there...
Happy OLD Year,
Happy OLD Year,
I couldn't let this go this year.
I wanted to end
The Old Year right
So Grocery-Shopping off I went.
Happy OLD Year,
Happy OLD Year,
I couldn't let this go this year.
"Loaded up the big store cart.
Went for all the stuff I love
Though at Winter prices, not that smart.
Happy OLD Year,
Happy OLD Year,
I couldn't let this go this year.
Didn't bring a list this week
Depended on inspiration
Got the bill, it made me weak.
Happy OLD Year,
Happy OLD Year,
I couldn't let this go this year.
But I'm happy now at home
Admiring my treasures.
Steak, hot sausage, cordan bleu.
Marinated artichoke hearts,
Even fancy oliveses.
Aparagus, fresh brussels sprouts.
Long seedless cucumber
Even went for cheddar cheese
(Not my favrit, but seemed right).
Grape tomatoes firm and sweet.
A bag of Navel oranges.
Had to have some apples too.
What's an apple without a pear.
Good ones, ripe. Those are rare.
Got to have a melon, too.
Dead of Winter, so I cared
To buy some soups of hen and beef.
Pop-top soup is all I dared.
Wanted a lobster but even fer me
There are limits to my budget.
Shrimp are very much the same.
Got butter for the melting,
Made my own coctail sauce,
Ketchup, horseradish, lemon juice.
Now I just have to eat this stuff
Sometime in the next 2 weeks.
Trying not to put on pounds...
Happy OLD Year,
Happy OD Year,
I couldn't let this go this year.
-----------------
Not exactly a poem, but I had a great time shopping and it registered the event. I'll discuss packing stuff away tomorrow.
But goodbye 2014...
