All kids love macaroni & cheese.

Ooey, gooey Macaroni & Cheese
yummy crummy Macaroni & Cheese.
Made with cheddar-what can be better?
Topped off with crushed chips-
had 'em licking their lips.

Just remember to always say please.

A perfect thing to make
when teacher isn't in the mood to bake.
Easy as can be
Macaroni & Cheese is a glorious recipe.

The best I ever had was at the "Bee's Knee's" (in Vermont)

The theme of the arts'n craft project
required just a little bit of logic
macaroni jewellery
minimized the unruly
