The Writing Prompt category plays host to a variety of posts written in response to a writing prompt of one kind or another. Sometimes they are from the Wordpress Daily Post prompts, other days they may have been written in response to daily challenges on other blogging sites.
The gems that lift us out of the grunge of everyday life bless me each time they find me. The one below was on a temporary wall in a shopping mall. I was on a mission and focussed on caffeine when the words jumped off the wall and I stopped long enough to read the words,…
Today I am grateful for our car a Holden Astra. It is reliable and comfortable to drive. It is also economical and has a good track record. We purchased it from my work where I had been the only person to drive it. The work vehicle turnover is high as their policy is to purchase…
Today you can write about anything, in whatever genre or form, but your post must mention a dark night, your fridge, and tears (of joy or sadness; your call). Feel free to switch one ingredient if you have to. Tonight was one of the few occasions when the MOTH (Man of The House) and I were prepared for the children…
If you could be a tree or plant, what would you be? My final years of school were spent in Pretoria, South Africa, which is known as the Jacaranda City because the streets are lined with these trees.

This month’s theme of Comments has me on the back foot. Some of the blogs I visit regularly have followers who totally engage in the conversation initiated by the author; the comments are as interesting and though provoking as the actual post. Other comment sections remind me of a Facebook exchange peppered with LOLs, ROFLs, smiley faces…
Tell us about your favourite Summer food Unlike most people our favourite foods are not limited to seasons. Certainly when it’s cold we favour more full-bodied meals that take more effort and more time simmering quietly on the back burner. However, like other homes we also have a delicious repertoire of family favourites that can…
What do you do to nourish yourself apart from food? It took a few moments to do the disconnect from food as a way of nurture and think about the other ways to unwind. In no particular order here are some of my favourite ways to shake the dust of the daily grind.
If I could have dinner with one celebrity chef whom would it be? So why would I actually want to have dinner with a celebrity chef ? This isn’t something I’d considered before this week’s prompt so it took a while (like a whole day) to figure it out. I asked this question because initially…
