I try to watch my figure
cause if i dont ..who will?
use my treadmill and ride my bike
but I like eating at the pizzeria
linguini and cheese ravioli
meat balls and breadstick
I love Mexican food and guacamole
I love the corn tortilla
but most of all
I love Ben and Jerry's ice cream
especially their cherry Garcia.

Tempting sliced cherries
and yummy chocolate chips
I wish I could eat it every night,
each delectable bite
I try to eat healthy
I eat my raw veggie
but dipped in creamy onion dip
broccoli and carrots
and cauliflower too
im so good during the week
so proud of myself
i eat cantaloupe, and honeydew
forgeting about chocolate chips
but when the weekend comes
i also forget about my hips
I surrender to Ben and Jerry
if I could only give them up
and stop feeling like a guilty canary..

Yummy...now I am going to have to take care of the craving I've been having. This is so cute and well written. I think we can all relate to this one.

I love you, Ben and Jerry,
And your banana splits
With maraschino cherries
They always give me fits!
I hope to meet you one day
T'would be a dream come true
Cause every day is Sundae
Since the day that I met you!  

Don't worry, V. As long as breath flows through my body you will never have to worry about no one watching your figure

Pecan or caramel mix really pleases me
Mmmmmm! A chocolate covered strawberry
Two or maybe three

Rocky Mountain Road Oh I love you so
What flavour do you got, I’m on my way let’s go
To all ice cream and treats I could never ever say no

Creamy cold and delicious
I hold them oh so precious

But most of all a flavour that I really love the most
We’ve all tried it at some time they call it burnt toast

Just because it’s burnt don’t think it ain’t no good
Scrape a little off then it tastes as good as wood

Add a little jelly, peanut butter if you wish
Any topping will do and you’ve made a gourmet dish
Kipper Snaps are the best…you know that little fish!

If they were gone tomorrow, that’s something I would miss
And eating them all day long is surly eternal bliss
But what turns me on the most is to taste them in your kiss

……ha!

Hi Victoria!
Nice to taste you again sweet friend
