Written for: Poetic Bloomings2 - For Your Consideration - Mother (In-Law)'s Cooking "Write a list poem: Nine reasons to eat your mother (in-law)'s cooking - My mom could tender a brisket every time. My sister and I have given up. - If you like your stuffed cabbage sweet and sour, Mom's tang rang out. - Crispy fried chicken? She learned from a southerner while Dad was stationed in Ft. Jackson. - Remember homemade french fries? Yup, she made them from scratch. - Love turkey with stuffing? You would moan in delight over Mom's two specialties–chestnut and cornbread. - Mom taught us how to bake original Toll House chocolate chip cookies. We would try to eat them before they cooled. - Years ago, I loved her chopped liver, hand ground in an old steel grinder. Secret ingredient: seltzer. - Though Dad called it rabbit food, Mom's salad ingredients differed. Sometimes you'd find chopped scallions, or radishes, or thin sliced red onion. - She would be so hurt if I didn't. https://poeticbloomings2.wordpress.com/
