Have an amusing thought about a restaurant you've visited? Love reading cookbooks and gastronomic magazines? Pick up a farm share every week? If any of these conditions apply, you should enter our food-themed limerick and haiku writing contest.
The jingles can be about anything you want, as long as some form of nourishment is mentioned.
Email your creations to food@sevendaysvt.com. Entries must be received by December 12. The cream of the crop will be printed on December 19.
Forgotten how the poems go? Here’s a sample:
(Limerick)
In Vermont we can’t grow citrus fruits
Cold weather slays all tender shoots
We live on potatoes
And dream of tomatoes
Thank goodness for edible roots.
(Haiku)
Runny golden yolks
Creamy hollandaise, croissant
Breakfast perfection
The prize for the Seven Days’ staff fave? Breakfast for two at Chef’s Corner!

Since 2014, Seven Days has allowed readers to comment on all stories posted on our website. While we’ve appreciated the suggestions and insights, the time has come to shut them down — at least temporarily.
While we champion free speech, facts are a matter of life and death during the coronavirus pandemic, and right now Seven Days is prioritizing the production of responsible journalism over moderating online debates between readers.
To criticize, correct or praise our reporting, please send us a letter to the editor. Or send us a tip. We’ll check it out and report the results.
Online comments may return when we have better tech tools for managing them. Thanks for reading.
