One of the things I missed most during my 18 month hiatus from blogging is the practice of Five Minute Fridays…and the community there!

I have met some of my best online friends there.

Kate provides the clan with a one word prompt, and we all set our timers to write for five minutes flat. It is a challenging assignment, especially for those who are grammatically cranky or the poor spellers like me.

I am very out of practice so please bare with me. This won’t be a Pulitzer Prize Piece, but I need to practice my craft…

The word this week is PURPOSE

Ready…set…go!

Good morning, Friend.

Hope you have something warm in your mug on this cool Fall morning. I have a cup of Green Mountain English Toffee (love my k-cups!) with cream and a little homemade salted caramel. My cousin gave me a jar and the recipe. I will have to try it to make it myself. Of course I will let you know how that goes.

Speaking of projects, I am so proud of my family command center. I am blessed to live in a cozy house, and by cozy I mean little. So there isn’t much room for a lot of extra furniture. I have to have multiple uses for each space if possible.
