All You Can ____ Buffet

On the One Minute Writer the topic for the day was to write about an non-food all you can (blank) buffet. Of course this was difficult because - well I love food. A lot. So I'm sitting here thinking what is something I would like to enjoy a sampling of as many different things as possible. Well there's literature which would be good but not my top pick (and really isn't life an all you can read buffet anyway? Even though I don't get to read as often as I might like I still get to read quite a bit and there is an abundance of variety available). An all you can see buffet? No there is just too much in the world that can tear your soul apart when viewed even just once. All you can hear? To me this would quickly become a cacophony of noise and I wouldn't be able to enjoy each piece as well as I might want to. I enjoy quiet too much and am quickly overwhelmed with much noise. And suddenly it hit me. If I were to create an all you can buffet it would textures. An All You Can Touch Buffet. Because I'm an avid toucher. I love to touch wood and paper and fabric and glass. I can hardly help myself when I'm in a store or even just walking close to something. I just have to reach out and touch it. (And if I'm not being rushed along by somebody I'll usually smell it next...)

One Minute Writer

It's been a while since I've done this too so I thought that I would wonder over and look at the prompt du jour - I liked the way it turned out and thought I would share (It also helps me keep all my stuff in one place.)
The prompt was " If you could be the best in the world at something, what would it be?"

When I read this question a few things flitted through my mind...scrapper, mother, wife but it didn't take me too long before I thought the thing I wanted to be the best at was everything that is me...wife, mother, crafter, follower of God - and that's when I realized that the thing I want to be the best at is following God's path, ways and commandments because that is how I can be best at everything else that I am.
