The bartender handed Ellis her drink.  “Fantastic.  It looks like an elegant pink slushy.”  She took a sip.  “Heavenly.  I can hear the angels playing their harps.” As Ellis turned to leave, she glanced over to her nemesis.  He and the woman in grey satin were whispering furiously. Ellis threaded through the crowd back to the table.  On the table were… [read more]

There was a small crowd of men in tuxedos in front of the open bar, where three bartenders were mixing and pouring drinks with high flying showmanship and zany banter.  Most of the men served were carrying two drinks back to their tables. Ellis sighed.  Maybe I should buy myself a slave man.  At least for one night I would have a male doing… [read more]

 Ellis speared the last bite of chicken on her plate, lavishly coating it in a puddle of sauce before eating it. “Okay Renie, you win one point for this evening, but only one mind you. Don’t get cocky on me. The food has been extraordinary for a banquet function.” Renie raised one eyebrow.  “At five hundred dollars a plate,… [read more]

“Renie, the only way I would wear a skirt this short is if I wore my bicycle shorts under it.  Which I may add wouldn’t work, because this skirt is shorter than my shorts,” said Ellis tugging on the bottom edge of a hot purple mini skirt. “Ellis you have great legs.  Let somebody see them.”… [read more]

When Tate opened the door of the Bengal Tiger Indian restaurant, wafts of turmeric and coriander delighted his senses.   He spied his mother sitting in one of the booths squinting at the menu.

November 16, 2014 by Carol 13 Comments

By now the kittens were waiting for me, albeit at a distance.  Even though it smacks of personification, I think the babies not only looked forward to the treats I brought, but were snickering at the antics of this human crawling around on her belly and making rather  odd noises.  Also I did wonder what… [read more]

Wild Goose on the Fly—–Reality?   Imagination?   A Tantalizing Mix of Both?
