Prompt: My Favorite Foods



Sitting at a patio table, my hair swishing in the breeze, I look out across the blue sea and watch the yellow orb sinking into the ocean. I take a bite of rich salmon melting in my mouth followed by a sweet potato fry seasoned with salty air. My favorite place to eat my favorite food is by the water.

I can conjure up an image of enjoying flaky white fish while feeling the energy of the roiling morning ocean waves a cup of coffee in hand. I can enjoy my favorite foods anytime and anyplace, but I cherish the moments when I enjoy fish by the sea. From past memories I can create visions of pleasure filling my imagination.

Ah! The dark chocolate that possibly wouldn’t sustain me but definitely one of my favorite foods. I can imagine living on different forms of chocolate for a lifetime, but then I see images of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and what happens when too much is just too much. I might float up and burst from too much chocolate.

Chocolate is delicious on its own or covering fruits and nuts. Dark chocolate covered pistachios could be called a meal, but maybe not. Frozen chocolate covered strawberries are a delight especially as the sun is high in the sky heating up the atmosphere. I am blessed to enjoy one of my favorite foods just about everyday.

Writing Prompt: The Most wonderful Time of the Year

Image
The most wonderful time of the year might be buying gifts, gathering with family, eating treats, singing Christmas songs, or going to candlelight services.  The most wonderful time of the year makes a lovely song, but for many December is not the most wonderful time of the year. For some, the glitter and glam of December brings the stress of job loss, low income, or holiday drama.  The most wonderful time of the year for me is every day that I quietly praise my God and celebrate Christ. When I can share my love with another person, it is the most wonderful day of the year. I will share some time with family on and around Christmas but it is not my favorite time of the year. Hearing a child describe her excitement over Christmas morning makes me smile. When children know they will get nice presents for Christmas, it is the most wonderful time of the year for them. I am blessed that I can share her joy. The most wonderful time for me is making things with my granddaughter. We ha...

Writing with Dice

Image
  Writing with Dice I got Writing Dice as a Christmas gift last year. I am having fun rolling the dice and writing to the word prompts. This is the color code and my 10-minute writing. Hat in hand the woman’s feet briskly hit the pavement as she walked through town. She saw the looks and heard a few whispers. She’s still alive? People stared, and a few waved. She hadn’t been to the shops for several months. She wasn’t dead. Her curiosity was very much alive. She had been traveling to countries she wasn’t familiar with but loved the medieval history in some of the villages. Now she felt like an outsider, but the power in her walk showed them she may have lived many more years than they, but she wasn’t old.    She saw Ed sitting on a bench outside of the dress shop. Since it wasn’t the hardware store, she was sure he came to town with his wife, Peggy who loved shopping. He had the face of a martyr sitting stolidly straight with his head slightly bowed. Even though his wife ...

A Purple Carrot Personality Style™ Goes for a Walk

Image
I check my planner and my watch. I am right on time for my 9:00 AM two-mile walk. Weekends I walk three miles, but since it’s Friday, I know which path will meet today’s goal. My full water bottle will add extra weight and hydration for maximum health benefit.   When I come to the Community Rose Garden, I stop to check for weeds and overgrowth. I will need to organize my clean-up team to do some spring cleaning. The  Heritage Rose Garden  Committee has been bringing the beauty of roses to the neighborhood since it was first established .    I take care to do stretches at the end of my walk and then nibble on peanuts for protein. I am back to work right on schedule.   Purple Carrot Personality Style ™  Strengths Organized, Planner, On Time, Responsible, Rules, Tradition Compare with the  An Orange Pepper Personality Style ™.   https://writewithauthornjmiller.blogspot.com/2024/03/an-orange-pepper-personality-style-goes.html     I took...
