Now, Veggie Mom, being the ever-vigilant SIL, wants to commemorate Aunt Julie's Birthday today, with a little ditty she penned just for the Pop'rs Queen. Sorry I didn't bake a cake, Julie Eliz...but this Faux-Veggie Cake's good enough, isn't it?

Ode to Aunt Julie,

On the Occasion

of Her Big Day!

There once was an Auntie named Jules

who often chose to break the rules;

She quilted and baked

and gardened and raked,

as if trained at the finest of schools.

She had a SIL name of Vee

who wrote verse with profoundest of glee;

Vee wrote and she wrote

'til she had a whole boat-

load of limericks, most worthy, for free!

Vee picked up her good friend, named Jammin'

the times they had always were slammin'.

Although Jules had not met

Jay, Vee thought she could get

these two together, no scammin'!

So Vee got a birthday-type cake

from Google, don't make a mistake;

The cake featured carrots, beans, peas,

and strawberries, you see;

fruits and veggies won't cause bellyache.

You probably must realize by now

Jules' birthday is here, oh and how!

So the Vee and the Jay

will come over to play

with Aunt Julie, please take you a bow!

Jules requested a poem for today

like the one that Seuss got, but say, hey!

I just don't have all the brain

power, it is such a drain

to create silly verses all day.

So we are here partly to say

that Aunt Julie's the Girl of the Day.

She doesn't have Seuss

but could this be a deuce

of a present to celebrate her birthday?
