Wordzzle

As always click on the button to see the guidelines.
And don't forget to go to Raven's Nest to see all the others.

The Ten Word Challenge is: family, cheese cake, 20 years ago, refrigerator, laugh and the world laughs with you, bath brush, zombies, African violets, butterflies, holding hands

And for the mini: monsters in the closet, roughly, bowling, menu, Pennsylvania

Phrog and Sallyie and Saydie were nowhere to be found. The secret retreat of the Order of the Salamanders was empty. It would remain that way forever (Unless the dragons decided to reclaim it.) After a meeting of the High Administration held in the western mountains of Pennsylvania over a menu of spiced water bugs and pureed spiders the decision was made. Since the secrecy had been destroyed it was no longer a secure place for them to meet. Phrog returned to his high rise apartment 25 floors above the White Water Bowling Alley and ordered the move to a new headquarters located roughly over the Monsters in the Closet Gorge near the Salamander River.


Sallyie and Phrog were sitting on the terrace holding hands while the butterflies flew around the African violets. They were thinking of going to the new movie Zombies that was coming out today. Saydie was in the bathroom scrubbing with the bath brush. Phrog said to Sallyie. You know it is true. “laugh and the world laughs with you.” I am going to get a refrigerator magnet with that on it to remind me that I need to laugh every day.

20 years ago I would never have believed that we would have won our conflict with the Dragons by moving to a place so secret that they will never find it. Let’s have some cheese cake and call the family and tell them the good news.


Next Week's Ten Word Challenge will be: plaster, cottage cheese, hallowed, hard working, food for thought, blood drive, broken finger, ceiling fan, pastry chef, production




And for the mini: the sky is falling, variations on a theme, bravery, powder puff, empty soda bottles

Spiced water bugs and pureed spiders sounds like a Halloween treat.

So, no war with the dragons? That's good, but what about the event that was looming so large a few weeks ago? We're all agog to see what that turns out ot be.

But what will the Dragons and Salamanders do instead if they aren't shaking their figurative fists at one another?

My goodness what a menu! Glad that the war is over... if it really is. One never knows with Dragons and Salamanders.
