Trondhjem's Pie & Ice Cream Social 2017

Trondhjem’s Pie & Ice Cream Social 2017

Could you go for a “famous” sloppy joe reload?
Then come on out to Trondhjem down the gravel road.
On September 17th, bring your appetite.
Arrive at 5 for your prime, pie-picking delight!

What flavors shall brighten your taste buds this year?
To rhubarb, raspberry or pumpkin would you steer?
How about chocolate, peanut butter or peach?
Do you wish you could have a sample of each?

Please peruse our silent auction and baked goods tables.
They are upstairs; head up as your time enables.
There will be crafts, woodwork, perhaps books of fiction,
Gift baskets, collectibles, so bid with conviction.

Be sure to stock up on an assortment of baked goods
Featuring treats made by our church neighborhood.
Will we see lefse, doughnuts, kolaches or bread?
Might you buy cookies, bars or apple crisp instead?

This year’s quilt raffle by WELCA fits a queen.
Deb’s quilt top, with all quilters, show skill that is seen.
Hayward’s Calico Hutch came in with the assist.
Tickets are $1 each, a price you can’t resist.

We hope you’re free to mark your calendars now
And also hope that your schedules will allow
You to come on September 17th at 5
To a hub where food, fun and fellowship thrive.

  1. This is your best Pie & Ice Cream poem ever, Lisa! How do you manage to come up with something new every year? I love it!

  2. Thanks for your sweet words, JoAnn! To answer your question, I re-read my previous poems each year and then I also keep them close at hand to try to prevent using the same verses. Perhaps one day I'll have enough Pie & Ice Cream Social poems that I can take one line from each and combine them to make a new poem. :-)
