Of brie and gouda, comte, let us sing!
Of marinated mozzarella balls!
Oh kalamata! Ascolano calls!
For French baguette our peals of joy shall ring!
Oh turkey stuffed with Cajun pepper bread!
Bring potch* and corn and roasted Brussel sprouts!
Pour wine and cider, winter ales and stouts!
Come one, come all, that none shall go unfed!
Rejoice! Key lime -- oh cranberry delight!
Corn muffins, macaroni and (good) cheese!
This tart with pear and frangipane will please!
Let cream puffs, coffee, tea round out the night!
Oh glorious day! Oh silent night of joys!
Upon the island of the misfit toys!
edited to add: *potch (not sure if this is how it's spelled) is mashed potatoes and rutabaga, which Aunt Beth brings every year
