From my work in progress Locations of the Heart:
Rachel arrived at their table and flipped their sturdy brown coffee mugs over. “Just decaf today, ladies, or half and half?” She held the orange-rimmed carafe poised over Minnie’s cup.
“It’s a half and half day,” Edith said. “Any day that Gordon Anderson is in town requires a dose of caffeine.”
Minnie snorted. “It requires Jack Daniels, but it’s a little too early in the day.”

If it's afternoon then Jack would be perfect. Of course it's afternoon someplace in the world
ReplyDeleteOk, so I want to know what's with Gordon that he inspires alcohol? Will have to buy the book. Great six!
ReplyDeleteIt requires Jack Daniels! What a great line! Terrific way to illustrate these characters and the absent Gordon!
ReplyDeleteI love your six! Thank you.
