Haiku Friday: Food for cold days

Some food is summer food. You know what I mean… and that is not what we are looking for. This is winter, darn it. It was -11 in Minnesota, and even here in Cambridge it is pretty nippy.

So, what is your favorite winter food? Let's haiku on that today. Here, I will go first:

My true love: Oatmeal.
I make it unhealthy! Milk,
Brown sugar, raisins.

Now it is your turn… just use the 5/7/5 syllable formula, and have some fun!

Comments:
Kielbasa stew!
Sausage, squash, zucchini, corn
tomatoes, onion.

Served with homemade
cornbread, mother's recipe
warmly fills tummies!
 
Three bean chili, yum.
Black, red, pinto, ground turkey
Onion and garlic.

Chili powders, (Duh!)
Cinnamon. And don't forget --
Drain and rinse the beans!
 
Food? I need warm drinks!
Hot chocolate, coffee, tea
Goes right to the core.
 
Just after broomball
Some white bread and a steaming
bowl of hot chili

After shoveling
Snow, never-ending sidewalk,
Steaming Spam hotdish.
 
In the winter chill
Tread gently in the kitchen…
Oh, no, Mr. Bill!

Cannot top your Dad's haiku
 
Butternut squash soup
Cream, oyster crackers and chives
Warms the heart and soul.
 
Winter comfort food:
Meatballs with mushroom gravy
On mashed potatoes.
 
Allspice lifted it
Ambrosial,boulders of beef
Swam with potatoes

Celery,carrots,
Onion boldly gilded the
Broth.Succulent clouds

Of Spatzli,treasure
To discover in the blessed
Bowl. It cooked all day.
