I couldn't resist!

I can explain ...

I was just home from Dublin

feeling weary and drained

my stomach was grumbling

all the way home on the train

I walked into Tescos

committing a cardinal sin

never when hungry

do you go food shopping!

I piled up the basket

with what I don't know

I got to the bread aisle

and started to glow

Christmas puddings and cakes

in shiny packaging

and there amongst them all

my ultimate sin

MINI MINCE PIES
dinga ling ling!

By the time I got home though

I was too tired to eat

So I put them aside

for a later day treat.

The treat came on Friday

when I finally got home

curled up on the sofa 

in front of the fire

oh how i love thee

mini mince pie :O)

Have a lovely weekend everyone x
