Great Teacher

Written in response https://ragtagcommunity.wordpress.com/2023/04/20/ragtag-daily-prompt-thursday-imbricate/ Imbricate the plates, that’s what Steve’s chef told him, but the trouble was he didn’t understand a word. Did it mean just wash them in the dish washer, or by hand? He wasn’t sure, but couldn’t ask again. Whatever he needed to do, maybe it was best to remember what hisContinue reading “Great Teacher”

Surprise!

Written in response to https://fivedotoh.com/2023/04/18/fowc-with-fandango-age/ Dave didn’t want to think about his age, or that in a matter of days he would be sixty.
