Cooking on the Rayburn

Cooking on the Rayburn

The heat, the smell
cooking slowly, cooking well

aroma filters to other rooms
daughter is waiting with a spoon

adding flavour, herbs and spices
nodding with approval

round the large dining table
we sit with our island ale

all waiting to be served
this tasty wholesome meal.

"Food for thought"

Food and ale hearty and warm.
From our island store these were born.

Daughter and hubby looking on.
Awaiting their dinner,it wont be long.

Good ingredients,fresh and fine.
Only thing missing!a bottle of wine!

Once again you've cooked up a winner.
For all the family a woundeful dinner.

Eagon Rone's good food guide.
Needs to take a walk inside.
Inside this cottage far away
On the isle of Uist may I say!

The food is good,the company grand.
As good as you'll find in an land.
So open the door and walk inside.
And place it in the good food guide.

Local fare for all to see.
With special ale and wine for thee.
So eat your fill,and thank the host.
Cos these friends here,are not here to boast.

They have a haven,theirs to keep.
A place to live,a place to sleep.
So wish them well as they go inside.
This is their home and it's filled with PRIDE.
