Parchment and cinnamon

 



The parchment unrolled in Ruth’s hands.  An aroma of cinnamon and incense rose from the ancient document as Ruth deciphered the cryptic writing. 
…Nothing is cast in iron…all burn in a wood fire…





This is a post from back in 2011 from Delores  when she first began the Wednesday Words.  It was fun then, and it is fun now.
 
The bold words are from Wednesday words from that time.

    1. It could be that Ruth found this scroll when cleaning out her gr-mother's chest. And, it could be a recipe and directions?

  5. Cinnamon, to me, is the scent of fall and winter. Apple pies, spiced cider, pumpkin pies, scented decorations. It's a wonderful aroma. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

  7. That's a strange quote. Maybe your expansion of the tale will help us understand it.

  9. Once we went to an Open House. there was an incredible cinnamon smell all through the house. The owners had saucepan simmering cinnamon, and it changed the house a lot.
