Busy Writing...52º

Here is a paragraph from todays writing assignment...Hugs to All...OWAV:)

My favorite meal though was our evening meal called supper. Late evening after the cows had been milked, chickens fed and a myriad of other chores completed, our family gathered around the small oak table late in the evening. The meal before us was now a simple meal, usually bread and milk, cheese, fruit and leftovers from dinner. Each person took their own slice of bread, broke it into bite size pieces filling a large cereal bowl. Ice-cold milk was poured over the bread and topped off with thick cream, maybe a sprinkle of sugar was added. Not only was this a tasty meal but it took little concentration to eat and the conversation flowed easily around the table as we discussed our days activities. Everyone helped in clearing the table, doing the few dishes before we retired to the living room with bedtime soon to follow.
