I’m Nuts About Nuts!
for Jama Rattigan
From Peanut to Pistachio,
Beneath my salty mustachio,
I chew a Cashew -- or two.
Coconut or sweet Brazil,
Pecan, Almond -- what a thrill.
Chestnut, Pine, Walnut -- all mine!
Macadamia and Hazel,
They all win my appraisal.
No ifs, ands, or buts -- I’m crazy over nuts!

So absolutely true, too! Fun to see a poem about Jama, Charles, a foodie to adore!
My mouth is watering. Love Jama's food poetry!
Can't think of a nicer nut than Jama to tribute in this way! ;)
Fabulous poem for a fabulous food aficionado! In our house, whenever someone says, "cashew" someone immediately follows up with "God bless you!" Love nut jokes and poems. Thanks for sharing. =)
Yum!
A perfect poem for Jama!
Perfectly delicious!

Thank you all for going nuts with me!
Bridget, I will now think of you and your family's clever "God bless you" tradition every time I hear the word "cashew!"
Very nutty indeed - love it!
delicious!
