Dear Kathryn., I was finishing off a longish comment on this wonderful post and saying how good it was to catch up with you again - it's been a while. The screen refreshed itself and took my almost completed comment with it. I'll try and condense what I said ... I loved your writing style and humour in your micro-fiction. I was also telling you about a company we have over here called Oddbox. They deliver all sorts of odd-shaped fruit and veg. that the supermarkets won't take because they're not 'perfect' or uniform enough, would you believe! We have forgotten what 'real' fruit and veg look like. I particularly like the carrot legs; sometimes I get a rude version of that - I'll say no more and leave it to your imagination! I'm really looking forward to reading more of your micro-fiction, although I've missed most of the month, and here we are, nearly in April. Take care, Kathryn. Xx 🥒🧄🥕💕
P.S. For some strange reason, I am unable to 'like' your post using the heart. Every time I try, it tells me to subscribe. As I'm already subsribed to your blog, it just won't let me do this. Do any of your other readers have this issue or is it just a glitch that is affecting only me? Xx
Oh Ellie, how kind of you to come by and leave a comment, and then have to rewrite the comment. that happens to me all the time. I appreciate that you re-wrote because it made my day. I think it want you to subscribe to Substack in general, but I'm not sure. Or, it could be that I imported my email list from my previous newsletter platform to substack. Technology can be a mysterious place full of false turns and frustrations. Your words were heart enough for me.
As far as micro-fiction, I've never tried it before, but I want to build my skills in that writing arena. Maybe, I'll post one once a month.
Take care of you, and loved hearing about a shop that didn't abandon all those misfit fruits and vegetables. We have seen our share of delightful oddities. And, they still taste fresh and delicious. :)
