Haha, I bet he thought doing so would keep him
out f the doghouse, too. Hopefully, it did. Your
image was hilarious, but appropriate. Great job
with the syllable count per line. I could image a
romantic dinner with wine and fancy service. So, he
probably was ok.
Thanks for sharing, Jan

Too funny, Jan- he was determined... for about 3 minutes haha
He can barely toast a bagel, poor guy.
As always, I appreciate your review! Thank you!

I'm not sure what you meant by reservation, but it only looks like a peanut butter sandwich. Do we have to make a reservation, at a restaurant, for this on the menu order? Not sure what you meant but this is what I came up with.

Thank you! It?s just meant to be a joke, really. Loosely based on my husband who can't cook lol but he can make a reservation!

Good haiku and presentation entry for the 5/7/5 poem contest. Correct syllables and line count. It's one of my favorites. Good luck in the contest!

That's from an old joke but it works well in your short poem and with the image. It is what we used to do a lot but not as much anymore. Good writing! Best wishes.

You got the correct syllable count, and your poem was funny. You did a great job with the prompt. It sounds like the way I would cook. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

My wife and son are always urging me to cook dinner, but I don't enjoy cooking. The guy's response in this poem would be the same as mine. Indeed, I'm still chuckling. Rod
