Saturday Centus (a day late): Peas in a Pod


In hopping around different blogs I came across Jenny Matlock's site. She offers a few interesting ways for bloggers to connect. She hosts Alphabe-Thursday, Storytime Tuesday and Saturday Centus. I hate to admit that I had to look up the word, "Centus"! Anyway, it sounded like a lot of fun so I decided to give it a whirl.  Well, OK, so I'm a day late! I'm calling it a snow delay - since I had to spend most of my time yesterday, Saturday, digging out from our storm!

The prompt this week is:   Two peas in a pod 
Word Count: 100, plus the five words of the prompt

You can use any style of writing and include any other picture if desired.

One thing I really like about Jenny's linked activities is that she incorporates additional rules:
Folks who link are encourage to read and comment on the five entries above and below their own on the list that appears on Jenny's page. What a fun way to meet other bloggers!
So, my "Two Peas in a Pod" entry is below. If you'd like to read other responses to the prompt, click on the Saturday Centus image to visit Jenny's site.





She said we had to write about two peas in a pod,
How hard could that be? Sounds like an easy job!
One hundred words plus five for her line,
Sure I can do that and it won’t take much time.
The hardest thing I’m experiencing is counting, 
you see
I don’t have a word editor that does that for me. 
So, sixty-two, sixty three.... I have a few more to go
Best get on with the topic, get on with the show.
My peas in a pod are my sweet, chunky horses
They are Haflingers and I love ‘em a lot... 
of courses!

  8. Love 'em lickin' their salt block. Mitch and Jet have one each of their own. It'll take Jet forever to make anything more than a dent in hers. Mitch is probably going to need one again fairly soon.

    At least it'll have taken him 4 months to finish it off. I was worried he'd eat the thing in days.

What thoughts do you have?

What is Four?

Have you ever thought of the meaning of "four"?  Four is the number of: seasons in a year. corners and sides to a square. virtues....
