Challegiing day but excited for Thanksgiving! Son has asked to be the Meister Chef tomorrow and looking forward to what deliciousness he whips up.
Hopefully the brownies will take the day off…
Today’s Writing Challnges’ prompts:

Mia’s Prompt for Day 22 is “distorted sounds”.
All really great prompts …
NaNoWiMo
I’ll have to pick this one up later; don’t have it with me right now …
Zentangle
I did a fun Fall tangle this morning! It features the patterns of Trimind, Bask-It, Swirly, Vega & Flovine against a background of Twenty-One.
