Twenty six words … – Keith's Ramblings

Twenty six words …

Dec 5, 2020Dec 5, 2020Keith's Ramblings

for Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompt where the given word is Quixotic and the limit, 26 words.

.

Exotic, quixotic, erotic even. Impossible they said, crazy.

I mixed, shaped, built, perfected.

As I lovingly caressed my creation …

my Venus de Milo cake toppled over.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Dear Keith,

I was employed as a cake decorator for many years. I felt the pain in this. Well constructed.

Shalom,

Rochelle

  If your cakes were like your paintings they must have been pretty spectacular!

    One of the most-watched TV shows over here is The Great British Bake Off and it’s seen more than it’s fair share of toppling towers over the years!

It should have been easier than a cake based upon just anyone, considering you didn’t even need arms~
