As a young swan drifted on to theContinue reading “https://sammiscribbles.files.wordpress.com/2021/07/wk-222-glow.jpg”

Saturday Snippet – It Won’t Happen Again

Word prompts – together as one

Burnt Offerings Burnt offerings, Cliff Edge, and terrified – All these words go together nicely in one charred package. My first attempt with a microwave didn’t end well. Burnt offerings, and my doughnuts looked they had been terrified by a terrible dragon. I opened the door, and took them from this new fangled machine.
