A little diddy...

While preparing the relish tray for Thanksgiving, I began to reflect on Thanksgivings past and as I thought about what was missing from the tray, I came up with a little song.  Anyone who went to the Stewart's for Thanksgiving can identify with me.

Sung to the tune of "O Christmas Tree"

O Dilly Bean, O dilly bean.  Oh how we miss our dilly bean.

O Dilly Bean, O dilly bean, Oh how we miss your sour green.

You once were part of our great feast.

But now you're gone. No more. You've ceased.

O dilly bean, O dilly bean.   Oh how we loved our dilly beans.

Maybe I was just trying to entertain myself during the monotony of relish dish preparation!

Seriously the $30 that my mom paid for that jar of dilly beans at the family reunion was totally worth it!
