EoMEoTE #11: Huevos Rancheros

His name is Chopper, he cooks a breakfast
With yellow over-easy eggs, it looks so good the puppy begs.
He adds chorizo, and a tomato
For this September Eggs on Toast, a little hot sauce is the most.
He tosses cheese with flair. This dish is debonaire!
But he cuts the toast and goes for tortillas
So now is this fair?

When it’s Huevos, Huevos Rancheros!
You can bet it’s worth mucho dineros!
It’s Chopper’s Huevos, Huevos Rancheros
Mexican dishes are always delicious,
When there’s huevos….
Serve me some eggs…

I, um, really apologize for that. It came to me in the shower, and
I. Just. Couldn’t. Stop.

    mrs. d…it’s so bad, it’s good!

    And I know what you mean; I can’t even remember all the words to that song, but the tune pops in my head and refuses to leave…more often than I’m comfortable admitting!

    Thanks so much for joining in!

    My stomach lurched, and I’m really confused. Did it lurch in a hungry way or a ralphy way?

    Stephanie — I once stage managed a show with that song in it. It was stuck in my head for Weeks On End. No wonder it came to me for this one…

    Alanna — thanks! I had far too much fun with Photoshop this week.

    Cookiecrumb — Stare at the image: it’s hypnotic. Barry says eat…your…eggs….eat…your…eggs… no ralphing…eat…your…eggs…

    OMG, I was singing along and I didn’t even consciously know what song it was going to be! I hope I didn’t actually sing out loud. Oh nooooooooooo. Just hit with very bad thought. I am headed to bed and THAT SONG WANTS TO COME WITH ME. Helllllllp!

    P.S. That was fabulous. Even though I sorta hate you now. But just until I get rid of the song. I mean, after I go back up and sing along one more time. . .

    Oh nooooooo! I just got it. It’s Copacobana. It’s NEVER going to leave my head. Never. I think I just got it out of there last year from when my mother used to play it in the 70s! Didn’t you say there was a big bottle of wine on your kitchen counter?

    Hahahahahahahaha! It’s stuck in your head forever. My work here is DONE.
