David Threadgold www.davidthreadgold.com - .3. Cooking the Books

Out came the books on cooking
Wrote by some famous cooks
With detail how to make a dish
Then showing how it looks

My wife sat there for hours
She read from soups to sweets
How to make the perfect roast
And where to score your meats

Then pages flicking wildly
The best she’s missing most
My dreams of gourmet dining
Are replaced with beans on toast
