My Favorite Foods

I can eat my favorite breakfast alone... eggs cooked the way I've loved them all my life... but breakfast always tastes a little better when I eat...next to my wife. I can eat my favorite lunch alone... A Philly Cheesesteak that never ends... but lunch always tastes a little better when I'm eating it...with friends. I can eat my favorite dinner alone... A steak and potato cooked just for me... but dinner always tastes a little better when I eat...with my family. I can eat cake on my birthday alone... I can sing happy birthday...sing my name... but without people gathered ‘round me that cake wouldn't taste the same. Yes, I can eat food by myself and I know that I will thrive but when I eat with friends and family I know that I'm alive. I once thought my taste buds decided my favorite foods but perhaps that's just a myth... Perhaps what makes them my favorite foods.... is who I eat them with.
