Critique the brunch

October 6, 2009 by marian33031

If you attended the End of Summer Brunch, you most certainly encountered Ladybird, a friend of Robert’s who was assisting in the serving line and wherever else needed. Her bubbly personality and helpfulness were hard to miss. She had such a wonderful time that she wrote a poem about the brunch and sent it in (see below).

What did you like about brunch? What do you think could have been improved? Farmer Margie and Robert would like to know, so the next event at Possum Trot is an even better experience. Please post your thoughts in the comments below. If you prefer, you can send them to me at redlandrambles(at)gmail.com and I will forward them.

END OF SUMMER BRUNCH POEM
by ROBBIN “LADYBIRD” HINEZ

Under a hammock of exotic tropical fruit trees
Partners with Margie of the heaven of bees
An organic summer brunch fit for a king.
The humble chef is Robert of Possum Trot Nursery
Everyone is greeted with lemongrass tea and passion fruit punch drunk pleasantly.
Then they were seated at a long table set for ninety.
The centerpiece of basil and red ginger arranged beautifully,
The buffet was set so tastefully, smoked eggs and a scramble with pesto from the pepper tree
A goat cheese topping torched and assorted fruit salad of many varieties.
The muffins were freshly baked with yogurt sauce
Accompanying boiled jackfruit seed salted lightly
Everything was incredibly tasty. Taste the bignay antedesma wine if you please
Robert, we so appreciate your outstanding cretivity.
The flavors you introduced inspired under the hammock of tropical fruit trees.
