It’s been a while since I took part in Linda’s JusJoJan month-long prompts, but, since I vowed to be creative, here goes!

Today is January 16th, so this is the 16th prompt for Just Jot it January 2022, and it’s brought to us by Lauren. Thanks, Lauren! Please be sure to visit her blog to read her post and say hello. And follow her while you’re there, if you’re not already.

Your prompt for JusJoJan January 16th, 2022, is “ridiculous.” Use the word “ridiculous” any way you’d like. Have fun!

My mind is blank.

And that is just ridiculous, isn’t it?

It probably doesn’t help that I have been sitting at my desk on and off since 11am, reading the 61K that I already have written on book 2, ready to really go at finishing this manuscript, after an early wake-up call from my brother and Finndian nephews at 7.30am on a Sunday, followed by cleaning the house as I was wide awake.

But now, I am definitely ready for a chance to cuddle up on the sofa with a nice, hot drink, and my Kindle.

Hopefully, I’ll be back to more enlightening posts, tomorrow!

Over and out!

A girl with cheeks that were freckled
Always found herself getting heckled
But she wore them with pride
And never did hide
Those cheeks so beautifully speckled

Oh my days, so silly!

When I think about Cosmopolitan, three things spring to mind.

The Magazine
The Drink
Sex And The City

As a teenager, I thought myself every so grown up, and ‘with it’ when I bought the magazine, as a teen, not realising that there were more adverts than articles in there! Still, it was to get this glossy publication filled with fabulous photos, and some interesting (sometimes naughty)reading.

I’d never even really heard of the cocktail, until I began watching Sex and the City, and yet, it still took me many years to actually try one.

Even then, it was a ready-mix variety I have purchased from the supermarket. Quite yummy, and extremely potent, was this particular mix.

It got the thumbs up from my sister-in-law and me, anyway!

Chocolate fills me with joy.

It also definitely decides to linger on my hips for far too long, nowadays.

I try to be healthy, buy more dark stuff, but there are times when only decent milk chocolate will do.

I love Cadbury’s Dairy Milk or Galaxy bars… The way they melt in the mouth, yum!

But my favourite of all has to be Maltesers. Yes, I know they are not pure chocolate, but that little piece of heaven; honeycomb wrapped lovingly in chocolate; my absolute favourite!

Don’t put a box of them anywhere near me, because;
