Cee’s Share Your World – March 27, 2017

With my middle name, it’s simple and yet complicated.  The story I’ve heard over the years is that my middle name comes from my Uncle David (or perhaps another family member with that name) which in hebrew is … Continue reading Cee’s Share Your World – March 27, 2017

#WritingPrompt – # 40: Home cooked vs Takeaway 

Home cooked or Takeaway…  Home cooked or Takeaway…. Home cooked, Takeaway Ahhh hell, I can’t decide.  You know what they say, “Nothing beats home cooking”….  But then nothing beats some else doing the cooking for you, if it’s done right.  Besides I’d rather do baking than cooking.  So I think I’ll let someone else do … Continue reading #WritingPrompt – # 40: Home cooked vs Takeaway
