This series is a celebration of my favorite sweets in verse form, inspired by and adapted from Elizabeth Barrett-Browning's well-known Sonnet 43.
How do I love thee, Georgia Mud Fudge Blizzard?
Let me count the ways.
Thou beastly twenty-one ounce ice cream dessert,
evil incarnate filled with chewy brownie pieces:
I love thee to the depth of your whopping 1,450 calories
and breadth of your 83 grams of fat
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being smothered in rich cocoa fudge
and the ideal grace of pecans blended with soft-serve vanilla.
