I'm stocking up on beans for the trip abroad,
your trip, my beans,
Beanz Meanz Heinz, not sugar-free.
For though baked-beans-on-toast gets very bad press
it's one of my favourites and knocks years off me
which very little else does these days
and takes me back to the '60s-
not to free love and burnt bras unfortunately-
but to that glorious crush on the geography teacher.
It was our weekly if not daily fare, the beans I mean,
and I'm looking forward to a week of nostalgia
when you take off to Mallorca
Even though I know
that within a hot second of Home Alone
I'll be phoning a friend.

That would be on my menu if I was cooking too. Or baked potato, coleslaw and cheese. Or sardines and sweetcorn. I don't have a wide repertoire. If you want to go out somewhere in Dublin when you're home alone, let me know!
