After Xmas I usually make a vow

To eat less food and diet somehow

But January comes and intentions I’m ditchin’

As on Mondays I head towards Judy’s kitchen

 

Sixteen ladies, all eager to taste

Some scrumptious food, there’ll be no waste

Beef in Guiness and an Asian curry

Will ours look the same? Ah So! Velly funny

 

We tried passion fruit pots and pistachio torte

Home made desserts, mmm, much better than bought

Jo makes the tea and just take a lookie

Each week we are treated to a different kind of cookie.

 

Roasted lamb rumps with redcurrant jelly

Cauliflower soup made with cheese that was smelly

Chopping and whizzing, slicing and dicing

Three courses of food,  all so enticing

 

Some dishes were easy but some were quite tricky

The coconut rice was meant to be sticky

I think I’ll have trouble handling filo pastry

But those spicy rolls were oh so tasty

 

So we don’t need Masterchef or Come Dine with me

We have our own stars here in Southend on Sea

Who cook us dishes  fit for a queen

I’m now looking forward to January 16.
