(first off Bao is pronounced like bow, as in bow and arrow)
From the farmer’s market,
To your kitchen table
Vegetables take the lead
Bao will show what’s able
Hand picked them just for you
Fresh as all can be
Radish, carrots, beets,
Even sugar snap peas
Hmong grown with pride and love
Cabbage and Potatoes,
peppers, lettuce snd more
even cherry Tomatoes
Sit back and relax friend
She’s a sweet potato
Right from LaCrosse Local
Yes it’s Cooking with Bao

Thanks for the inspiration both to cook and to write this little ditty... it has music, and I love how singing it changed it up a bit from the original write.
Here's one I know I'll be cooking this year, and Bao will show me the way.
