Watching some media chef or another preparing something you'd never dream of trying yourself in a month of Sundays. Or eating, for that matter. Fantasy food.” Geoff came and sat down next to his boyfriend on the sofa. Together, they watched the next few minut
  13. @droughtquake Thanks, drought! No, my birthday's far enough from Christmas to avoid that ... just.
  14. A response to prompt 392 forms the next chapter about Tony and Geoff. I'm also writing a response to 628 which is working up to be one of my dystopian tales.

  16. @Drew Espinosa Thanks, Drew. Mind you don't eat too much 🦃 or 🎃 pie ...

    Fall Sightings
