Bean, Butter and more


Beans, Beans, Beans

Baked beans,
Butter beans,
Big fat lima beans,
Long thin string beans-
Those are just a few.

Green beans,
Black beans,
Big fat kidney beans,
Red hot chili beans,
Jumping beans too.

Pea beans,
Pinto beans,
Don't forget shelly beans.

Last of all,
Best of all,
I like jelly beans!



Egg-Thoughts

I do not like the way you slide,
I do not like your soft inside,
I do not like you many ways,
And I could do for many days,
Without a soft-boiled egg.




One potato, two potato,
Three potato, four;
I like mashed potato,
May I please have some more?



Mashed Potatoes

Mashed potatoes, mashed potatoes,
Piled up high,
Mashed potatoes, mashed potatoes,
Up to the sky.



Mashed potato clouds,
Mashed potato moon,
Scoop it all up with a giant spoon!



One, One Cinnamon Bun

One, one
Cinnamon bun

Two, two
Chicken stew

Three, three
Cakes and tea

Five, five
Honey in a hive

Seven, seven
Straight from heaven

Eight, eight
Clean our plate

Nine, nine
Look at mine

Ten, ten
Start over again!



Applesauce

Peel an apple,
cut it up,
cook it in a pot.
When you taste it
you will find
it's applesauce you've got.



Anna Banana

Anna Banana, jump into the stew:
Gravy and carrots are good for you.
Good for your teeth,
And your fingernails too,
So Anna Banana, jump into the stew!



Spaghetti

Spaghetti,
Spaghetti,
Heaped in a mound;
Spaghetti,
Spaghetti,
Winds, winds around.

Spaghetti,
Spaghetti,
Slips, dips, and trips;
Spaghetti,
Spaghetti,
Slithers and drips;

Spaghetti,
Spaghetti,
Slurps, sloops, and droops;
Spaghetti,
Spaghetti,
Comes in groups;

Spaghetti,
Spaghetti,
Twists, turns, and bends;
Spaghetti,
Spaghetti,
Never ever ends!



Oodles of Noodles

I love noodles. Give me oodles.
Make a mound up to the sun.
Noodles are my favorite foodles.
I eat noodles by the ton.



Cooking Stone Soup

We're cooking stone soup,
We're cooking stone soup,
Stir the pot,
It's getting hot,
We're cooking stone soup.

First, we add potatoes,
First, we add the potatoes,
Stir the pot,
It's getting hot,
We're cooking stone soup.
