It is a fun meme and I am glad it continues.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Delores could have known how this has progressed and continued.

DeleteI wonder what that all means. Probably not what we think it does.

DeleteCinnamon is one of my favourite aromas.
ReplyDeleteI love that smell when baking an apple pie.
DeleteCinnamon, 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
ReplyDeleteSomething about baking apple pie makes me feel warm.
DeleteAn interesting snippet of a tale, I wonder if there's more where it came from.
ReplyDeleteI haven't considered expanding this. But maybe.
DeleteThat's a strange quote. Maybe your expansion of the tale will help us understand it.
ReplyDeleteNo, I have no plans at this time. Later, maybe. this was 33 words long.

ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
