Your questions

She asked me to keep that secret 🙂

What is your favorite comfort food when you are having a perfectly horrible day? And why? snapshotsincursive

I tend not to have perfectly horrible days and I’m more likely to strum out the stresses than reach for the fridge.

Food that makes me go ‘mmmmm’:

  • Steak: “I’m stressed, gimme blood” (Rib eye, very rare, practically mooing). Why? Perhaps I need an iron boost at these times.
  • Cheesecake: Cheese and cake! (Not technically cake, I know). Why? I love cheese – and cake – this is a definite stodge factor.
  • Chocolate mousse: Too often, these come in tiny little pots that tease. I’m going to make me a big batch – today – now look what you’ve done! Why? This is one I savour on the tongue to get the full creamy, drawn-out oooooooh sensation . It just feels good.

What was the last piece of poetry you wrote that you “weren’t sure” was good enough to share? Will you share it? GPWilliamson

I generally share everything I write. Even if I think, “this is rubbish”, I’ll throw it out there; ergo everything is good enough to be shared, but not everything I share I consider good. A recent example was Up and Down, written in a hurry in the car, and I didn’t have the patience to change it. It was just a case of, “Babble… but I’ll upload it anyway and never think about it again.”

Surprisingly, it got lots of likes and the first comment was “this is so good!!” I know nothing! My ‘bad’ could be somebody else’s ‘awesome’. It’s all a matter of perspective and taste.

What is Rosie’s favourite form of poetry? – Candy at rhymeswithbug
That’s easy – it’s a Manxu; an ode to cats in 2-2-1-6-1-4-! syllable format:

Rosie,
my cat,
she
likes to gift me with rats
and,
sometimes, a bird
!

Your turn! Yes, you reading this. I like you; you look nice and friendly. And inquisitive – definitely inquisitive. Ask me something. Anything at all. 🙂
