THE ENCOUNTER
Hello blog friends! Today author Colleen Chesebro invites us to respond to the theme useful. I've decided to be a bit playful and focus on the lowly washcloth. Here's my take on the theme. THE ENCOUNTER The little guy looks guilty, but I suspect he's not the culprit. Chocolate is. I keep a stash of this special delight in my desk and find plenty of excuses for taking a nibble. And yes, sometimes I've needed a washcloth. 😊 Have a wonderful week!

Reminds me of my kiddos! Always a mess over here, but no regret if chocolate is involved, lol

I can only imagine, Sarah. My kids are adults now, but my goodness, when they were little, their tiny handprints were everywhere. 😊

I tend to go for the drop-the-chocolate-on-my-white-shirt routine.

Thank you, Pete. If the market crashes and grocery stores empty, I think I have enough survival dark chocolate for six weeks. 😂

This one made me smile, Gwen :) Chocolate was a food group for me for years. I wish I could still eat it but have fond memories of each piece eaten.

Super cute, Gwen! I, too, keep a stash of dark chocolate nearby, but I make sure to lick my fingers clean so no one is the wiser. Lol! Great poem! :-)
