Wedneday Words: Gotta Go

Posted on August 2, 2023 by Silver James

It’s time for words once more because it’s Wednesday and Wednesday means new words. The Irish Wolves are still chattering at me and when I saw the prompt for last week’s #ThursdayThreads prompt, I knew exactly where **”We have to … Continue reading →

Tuesday Treats & Titles: Brazilian Assassin Cheese Bread

Posted on August 1, 2023 by Silver James

I have friends who like/want/need gluten-free good stuff so when I caught this on my local newscast and thought, mmm-mmm good! I’ll admit I haven’t made them yet nor have I tried to find tapioca flour. I should probably add … Continue reading →

Madcap Monday

Posted on July 24, 2023 by Silver James

It’s Monday once again. Sadly, July has one more Monday on the calendar. Ya know, it’s a bad cosmic joke when there are five Mondays in a month. Not fair. If I thought it would do any good, I’d grab … Continue reading →

Wednesday Words: I’ll Drink to That

Posted on July 19, 2023 by Silver James

Another Wednesday. More new words. S’all good, right? Sadly, no “love” on last week’s Thursday Threads flash fiction challenge but that’s okay. I’m happy with the scene (expanded from 250 words to 396) that evolved from the exercise. The prompt–taken … Continue reading →

Monday in the Middle

Posted on July 17, 2023 by Silver James

Poor Monday. Even us semi-retired, work-from-home types tend to stigmatize the day. It’s not Monday’s fault. And those that don’t work M-F/9-5 jobs have way different time tables. I used to work shifts–24 on, 48 off. And then I worked … Continue reading →

Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Yes, today’s Wednesday Words took top honors in last week’s #ThursdayThreads competition. I’ll admit that at first, due to the phrasing of the prompt, I had to think about what to write. This actually is fun. … Continue reading →

Wednesday Words: Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda

Posted on July 5, 2023 by Silver James

Did everyone here in the States have a safe and sane 4th of July? We always have idiots who pop off illegal fireworks. Jake, having been shot at before he was rescued, freaks out. I don’t freak out but it … Continue reading →
