There’s something about the entire process that’s dear to my heart

It reminds me of all the Sundays’ home from finish to the start

Saturday night I peel and soak the vegetables + the salt meat

While listening to ‘The Cabin Party’ it can’t be beat

Preheat the oven while having my morning brew

Put the chicken or roast cooking on low heat for an hour or two

Get the big boiler on as soon as you get home from Mass

Make sure the salt meat is simmering as I pour Screech and Coke in a glass

Add in turnip, carrots, potatoes and then cabbage on top

Put on some ‘Home Brew’ music and for a break I will stop

Set the table and add in puddings ‘Oh Me Nerves’

Make the gravy and bellow that dinner is ready to be served~
