Flash Fiction 55 and Flash Back Friday!
For Flash Fiction, you write a story in exactly 55 words.
For Flashback Friday, reminisce about the old days.
During my 11th summer, I stayed with my sister, Peggie.
Peg had boy, 8 years my junior.
One day I told the boy to go ask for cake for both of us.
He did and was given cake.
I was scolded harshly for sending a messenger.
I received no cake that day.
Think I learned?

ReplyDeletemine is up!
Oh that's funny! Thanks for sharing and linking up!
ReplyDeleteYes, get the cake first and blame the kid? Oh you mean the moral way. my 55 here
ReplyDeleteNah. Cake is over rated.
ReplyDeleteI hope you taught the boy how to ask for things without saying, "Tilden said ...!"
ReplyDeleteFunny, the things we learn and the things we don't! I enjoyed this!
ReplyDeleteFunny, the lessons we learn, and the ones we don't! Cake would be my best reinforcer.
ReplyDeleteI dunno..
ReplyDeleteHave you sent anyone to fetch you cake lately?
If not, yes you learned!
Excellent 55 My Friend.
Thanks for playing, thanks for visiting, and have a Kick Ass Week-End...G
Great idea!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the story and the brevity of it :)
A famous couplet in Spanish:
Lo bueno, si breve,
dos veces bueno.
If something is good AND brief
It is twice as good.
Great way to combine two memes :)
