Drifting through life

  pi pie in a pumpkin orange colour? For Charlotte's colour of the month. The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by Sean Jeating and can be found here This week's words/prompts are:   1.innocent  2.evil  3.face  4.expanding  5.born   and/or:   1.come  2.surprise  3.planet  4.minor  5.follow Here is my story: Russell and Theo watched as the men retreated to their vehicle, then Theo settled Sunny and both men crawled into sleeping bags resting on surplus Army cots. Next morning...

 Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections.  A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please.  Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. In memory of Elephant's Child, the meme is now continued by myself and a few others. Andrew is one.  Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look. Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally. I had to buy a new jar of pickles recently, this is my favourite brand and I almost always buy the baby ones because the bigger pickles are sold out when I get there. the label is nice too, with the cucumbers on the vine you'll never guess what I was making here, no, not soup... pasties! with premade puff pastry from a packet.
