The simplicity of my day to day. |
Please use these words in your entry: weave, cake, inside, outside, ample, reception, and pepper. Have fun. My beautiful friend invited my husband and I to lunch at her home. She texted to ask what sort of cakeJohn, liked. It seemed to be a hard decision on his part, and he had amplenumber of ones that he might choose from. Finally, it came down to two finalists. Chocolate éclair, or vanilla slice. Selection decided upon at last, I let my friend know. On arrival at the party, thereception was very warm and welcoming.There was another decision to be made and that was whether to sit outside or inside.The day was very warm still, even though by now, it being autumn, summer should have departed the scene, inside was deemed preferable. There were a few other couples present at the party and because space was at a premium when anyone needed to use the bathroom, we needed to weave in and out of the chairs and table. The food was delicious and in between the inevitable “pass the pepper and other banalities, so was the conversation. After the main course a platter of individual cakes was presented. Everyone it seemed had requested a different type of cake. But to John’s delight there in the centre was a vanilla slice at least two inches high filled with a thick, creamy custard. |
