I was wondering if we could have a post with all the ditties, no chat, so we could search 'ditties' and they could be easily found?

Like the snowman soup one, the smelly feet one, the perfect man one!

I am useless at these but some of you peeps definatly have the knack!

    I will start it off!


    Heres a little pot of gold,
    A festive nibble too,
    I hope it makes all your dreams come true,
    Merry Christmas from me to you.


    Thanks to unknown original poster!

    I was told you've been real good this year, always glad to hear it.
    With freezing weather drawing near, you'll need to warm the spirit.
    So here's a little Snowman Soup complete with stirring stick. Add hot water, sip it slow, it's sure to do the trick!


    Thanks to rainmac ...I think!

    Pop one in your left shoe and one in your right
    Make sure you leave them there overnight
    In the morning there'll be a smell oh so sweet
    No more will you suffer from 'sweaty feet'

    Put these inside your trainers
    One left, the other right
    And smelly foot odours
    Will vanish overnight

    Here is a little poem i send to my friends with a teabag in a card throughout the year

    Although the miles divide us,
    It's easier to be,
    Together in our thinking,
    As we make a cup of tea,
    So lets both put the kettle on,
    And make ourselves a brew,
    And while you drink and think of me,
    I'll drink and think of you! x

    Thanks to Kandipandi

    Safe Keeping jar

    SShhhhhh!

    Don't spill the beans
    About this special place
    And no one will find
    Your secret hiding place

    ________________________

    Stash it !

    A jar of beans it looks to be
    But look real close and you will see
    A kitchen safe with a place inside
    For little things you want to hide
    Like sweets, secrets or even cash
    A nifty place to hide your stash !
    Mary

    I'm creative -you can't expect me to be neat too !

    Take a gingerbread man and repackage him so it looks posher, print out and attach the following poem

    THE PERFECT MAN
    They say good men are hard to find
    I know this to be true
    But I hunted far and wide
    And found one just for you!

    He is no good at DIY
    He cannot fix the car
    But his socks are never smelly
    And he doesn't stray too far

    He always listens patiently
    And won't pester you in bed
    If you get fed up with him
    You just bite of his head!

    I think this gift is fantastic and I know so many women who would love it, and it would make them laugh on christmas day!

    Enjoy a trip down memory lane
    For a moment becoming a child again
    Relive skinned knees, tag and conker fights
    As you enjoy this box of delights

    Thanks to seabee
