Ode to "Our Best Bites"

Ode to "Our Best Bites"
by Ace and Sasha Beorchia

Oh our good friend, Our Best Bites!
We seek your wisdom from your internet sites.
Your recipes cook up like a charm,
And never have they done us harm.

A true friend you are, to our appetite,
We call on your assistance every other night.
The shish-ka-bobs turned out delightful,
And though newly-weds, no dinner has been frightful.

The baked potatoes with Alfredo sauce
Was definitely not a loss!
Every meal turns out delicious,
And most of them (all except the amazing cinnamon rolls) have been nutritious.

And so to you, we write this poem,
From the dining room of our lovely home.
Just to let you know we rely on your assistance,
To receive your guidance we would go a great distance.

One could nearly be certain that we own nearly every cook-book ever written. I don't just mean your average, Joe-Shmo, everyday published cook-book either. Chances are... we have every ward, stake, and family cook-book also. However, there is still a lost pearl waiting for a place on our closet's shelf... OUR BEST BITES! Sasha says "never have I felt so close to cooking like Betty Crocker, George Foreman, and Julia Childs, all thanks to Our Best Bites." In fact, this is the only item on her Christmas list.

Cooking for two has been sooo fun! We have loved spending time in the kitchen making Butternut Squash Soup, Grasshopper Pie, Baked Alfredo and Vegetables Potatoes, Lasagna, Home-made pasta, Cowboy Quesadillas, Grilled Vegetables and Chicken, and many other delicious recipes. And, as of right now, every thing has turned out amazing (thanks to Sasha's amazing cooking)! The only near death experience is when I sliced a thick chunk into my left-birdy finger. Let's just say that my cutting privileges were taken away for a little while.

So, to sum everything up, and coming from an Italian heritage... Food brings people together! And thanks to everyone who gave us fun nick-nacks to cook with! Maybe a future blog will have the title "Ode to Kitchen Nick-Nacks"!
