Welcome to one of my latest publications entitled
'Scribbles with Chocolate'.
Chocolate.
Consequently, it consists of over thirty short stories, poems, extracts, and general ... scribbles.....for your enjoyment and amusement. Some funny stories, some funny poems. Some serious articles, some humourous ones - and a goodly display of very short stories for break time when you just haven't got either the time or the inclination to settle into a long novel.
Or... Settle down and have a cocktail.... This is an extract...

You had me at chocolate... Dairy Milk too! My fave.
ReplyDeleteGot to agree with you there, Alison... Just something quite mmmmmmmm about any kind of chocolate, but Cadbury's does take some beating... We set up the table, mugs and chocolate for the photograph..... I turned around, and the chocolate was gone... Honest...
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderful way to spend your time. Nice blog. Thank you for sharing.:)
