FRIENDSHIP POEM
FRIENDSHIP POEM: “A penny for happy thoughts, Grains that grow and
nourish, Leavenings to lift us up, May friendship ever flourish.”These
lovely friendship loaves were inspired by the “Begger’s Rhyme” of unknown
origin…”Christmas is coming, the geese are getting fat, plase put a penny
in the old man’s hat, If you haven’t got a penny, a ha’penny will do, If
you haven’t got a ha’penny–God Bless You!” This special message to
accompany your gift breads (the Friendship Poem), is sure to spread the
feeling of warm frienship and good will.I have never tried this recipe. It
comes from my “Pillsbury Festive Holiday Recipes” cookbook, Classic #13.
