I'd rather have a root canal...
I'd rather have a root canal...
They say cooking is
Great fun, good for body 'nsoul.
But I would rather
Have a root canal.
Give me a pill anyday,
Or a private chef.
The thought of daily
Hearty meal preparation
Fills me with such dread.
Breakfast, lunch, dinner;
Always such a chore. Meat loaf,
Salad, or pancakes?
An hours d'oeuvre style meal
Is much more up my alley.
Fresh fruit and veggies,
Hummus in a bowl
With various types of bread,
Crunchy celery.
Remember Mermaids?
The manly star-shaped sandwich?
That was a great scene!
So, if you should come
By for dinner don't expect,
A warm, fancy meal.
Only Thanksgiving,
Makes me want to cook. Turkey,
cranberries, green beans,
Home-made apple pie.
Warm pumpkin pie with whipped cream.
How else to survive?
I've discovered recently, and perhaps I was merely in denial before, that I HATE to cook. I LOVE food, but I hate cooking; baking I enjoy, but not cooking!! I need a personal chef! Anyone else feel that way!?

Cute haiku! I have to kind of laugh because I always thought I hated cooking, but then I found I love it because I can adapt it however I want so that it tastes how I like it and maybe is even a little healthier, too. Come on over, and I'll cook you dinner.

Oh yes, I'd like a personal chef as well! Now that I have a little boy I always have to think about balanced meals, etc...it was easier when it was just me and the Sergeant! Of course, everyone eats better now..

I enjoyed your wonderful Haiku … once upon a time I shared the feelings reflected here … but these days I don’t care to bake or cook!
Hugs and blessings,

Hehe!
Personally, I love cooking. Not every single day, but about 5 days a week I really enjoy it. Baking? I could do that every single day. But my body does not need that
