Tofu or Not Tofu Haiku

Haiku FridayThanks to everyone
for the haiku suggestions
you gave yesterday.

Scrumptious bites tempt me.
Shall I gorge on them all or
savor them slowly?

I'll pick one today.
The rest I'll save and savor
as the weeks go on.

The Maven, newly
vegetarian, suggests
a tofu haiku.

(Maven delights me.
If you haven't read her blog,
your life is empty.)

Sickly, glowing pale,
Crumbling, spongy firm tofu.
My post-partum thighs.

  3. I'm so honoured! You're the bestest. Tonight, I shall eat tofu in your honour. If I were smart enough to write haikus I would compose one for you. But for now you'll have to settle for a 'you rock!' and an upcoming blog post featuring Mr Spoon, which I think you may giggle at a little :P

    *hugs* Have a good evening, MPJ!

    Tofu is never
    tasty when spongy, only
    eat stir-fried and baked.

    As for your thighs, may
    I recommend a simple marinade
    of Sunshine and lotion. =)
