  1. Making: Smokey Potato and Chickpea Stew, and Oatmeal Raisin cookies (no flour) today. Yesterday was lazy cabbage rolls.
  2. You should and prompts are a good way to begin. I wrote the opening chapters for two of my longer stories, Changes and The Searcher as prompts, they were not posted but i save everything. One day while looking through the archives, the stories were ready to write. So make notes, write things in your spare time. Just go for it!
  3. haha, i am ... i'm easily pleased!
  4. Thank you. I believe you. It's me I struggle with, but words still seem to need to come out. I'm grateful there are people like you who choose to read them.
  5. Hi Gary and thank you for reading this. I try my best to write things off the beaten path. I think that's what I enjoy most about short stories and vignettes: the chance to write about many different topics. Also, I have a short attention span!! Seriously though, thank you for reading these little tidbits. I am grateful.
  6. Thank you, Michael. I'm glad you enjoyed this.
  7. Thanks, Gary. I've written several longer stories, but I'm not a grand saga type of author. Prompts are interesting and force you to write in a different way. I guess they are like the tasting menu rather than the eight-course dinner. Both can be delicious and fill you up. Thanks again, Gary, for reading.
  8. we have one but it's just annoying to use .. however, so far, the whiteboard is great.
  9. Thanks, kbois. There have been a number of books and films/shows about phone booths, you're right. It was the Wind Phone that i found very touching. I'm glad people are happy to determine what's happening here. I wouldn't dream of telling them. Thanks for reading!
  10. Thanks for reading this, Kitt. Not sure he was chasing it but he certainly found it at the right time. xo
  11. You deserve both a 😆 and a ❤️. That made me laugh. It's a good question. Why would you chase a moving phone booth... i'd run the other way! Hopefully, Chase will be able to find his way back to some happiness in his life.
  12. i think wandering the desert alone is not the best thing to be doing. Chase was lucky. Thanks for reading this, chris!
  13. Thank you, Parker. His life was changed by leaving his car, you're so right. Thanks for reading and your comment.
  14. Thank you, Wayne. Yeah, it could be any of those. You can find lots of people relating stories of having spoken to the deceased on the phone. They are kinda strange but worth reading.
  15. Chase and the Phone Booth He knew he should never have decided to walk. Leaving the car with just a bottle of water was stupid. It was hot, and the sun was like an unfulfilled ghost, relentless in its haunting of him. He sweated but knew stripping in the desert was just plain moronic, so he trudged on, wondering if he should turn back. It was scrub desert, pretty in its way, but not when lost and without water. He'd said he'd rest an hour ago when he g
  16. Sometimes you can have too much help! i love them to death but when they are hovering around, or they put things away i still need.. Go away! please. If i need help i will ask.
  17. Found this yesterday ... i love them Read more here: https://thegreatcanadianwilderness.com/the-screaming-heads-north-of-muskoka/
  18. I am convinced it's Sunday .. but it's Wednesday. Have some editing to do. Have a good day lovely DiCers.
  19. @Kitt gave you the recipe. You should try it. We usually add some sauerkraut, to get that nice sour flavour. i'm told that once upon a time whole cabbages were submerged in sauerkraut barrels and later used to make cabbage rolls. No boiling required. Boiling is not required if you freeze the whole cabbage and then defrost it. This is making me cravey and hungry!
  20. That's good! We call it deconstructed cabbage rolls. So good! Michael started making those when craving his mom's cabbage rolls. i think we'll have to make that soon. It's really delicious. Thanks for the reminder!
  21. White board alert: I used it again today.. wrote down my bank appointment on Friday!
  22. i love how you think i will actually do any.. haha
