Because of the Biscuits . Top Story - October 2024.
I grew up on a farm. My daddy was a farmer. My four older brothers followed in his footsteps, helping on the farm. Naturally, as a girl at the time, I was expected to cook and feed everyone in the family with my mother usually at my left elbow. Don’t get me wrong, I liked cooking and I loved my family but there were days when I was just tired of, what seemed like, bottomless stomachs. Every morning, I would wake up to milk the cow and bring the milk in to make buttermilk biscuits.

Sand-hustler
Once upon a time, there was a stately sandcastle on a beach. In the sandcastle, there lived a princess who longed to swim in the ocean. Every day, she woke up and watched the sunrise. The ocean waves taunted her. Every evening, she would sit and watch the sunset. The ocean waves still taunted her. One day, in frustration, she cried out to no one in particular, “I’d give anything for just one swim in the ocean!”
