Esther

@esther-c

So, does your family have dressing or stuffing (or neither)?

We usually have cornbread dressing, although we have family up north who have stuffing, and I like both. The debates over which is better are fun to listen to.

@esther-c

Really? My family usually has a more traditional Christmas dinner with cornbread dressing, potatoes, turkey, ect. But we did barbeque one year with extended family, and enchiladas another.

I’m born and raised Texan, and yeah. Tamales especially are definitely a holiday food here. Although that doesn’t mean we don’t eat them year round,…[Read more]

@raxforge

Yeah, on nearly everything I’ve found on Christmas the stuff is regurgitated that Christmas is all pagan and completely stolen, but then when you look to objections to that, the evidence against it is much more substantial.

@whalekeeper

That sounds like a great way to celebrate Christmas.

@esther-c

I honestly don’t understand why…

@esther-c

Random side note because I did recently find this out. Easter is mentioned in the KJV Bible (Acts 12:4), but it was an incorrect/imperfect translation. Most other translations use Passover.

We also have a new tradition where we eat a different cuisine for dinner on the three(?) nights leading up to Christmas.

That’s awesome. A lot of…[Read more]

@liberty lol. I have 52 snowballs as of the last count.

*cackling*

@ellette-giselle Glad you liked it! This is probably the closest thing to a romance plot that I’ve written. (Instead of it being a small side plot.)

@stephie Since you apparently want to lay catch. *chases you*

OK…

*a giant cloud of snowballs puffs up from my…[Read more]

@theshadow

My blunt and honest opinion? I think Christians who choose not to celebrate Christmas are living from a place of religion and not relationship with God, where it has become more about what you do and don’t do than truly living with Jesus. That’s a blanket statement, and I’m sure it doesn’t apply to everyone- if God has genuinely…[Read more]

OK. There won’t be as many more scenes from this story that I’ll share, but here you go. Its 95o words should render me free from all residual snowball debts I owe.

Tada…………..

From the sounds coming from the nearby cotes, the other shepherds were…[Read more]

@esther-c @liberty

Y’all are terrible. XD Now I owe almost a thousand words. I’m going to have so much fun once I have my words written.

Ha lol I totally forgot about this and now I’ve been snowballed again, so it looks like I’m at 200 words… fortunately for me, I did just write more than 200 words, so it looks like I can start throwing my snowballs! I’d share what I wrote, but it’s part of a random scene in a story and probably would not make sense without more of the story,…[Read more]

@esther-c

Oh my goodness!!! This was so, so good! I really loved this, and the time flips were amazing! I love how you did the different periods, yet had them flow together so well that at times it almost felt like the same story! Oh this was amazing. The descriptions you use were perfect and I could really picture everything! Well done!

@esther-c

We also have a new tradition where we eat a different cuisine for dinner on the three(?) nights leading up to Christmas. Like Mexican, Chinese, pizza, and then on Christmas Eve we eat finger foods so there aren’t a lot of leftovers to leave room in the fridge for left over Christmas dinner. 😋

Lol pretty much. My family usually has C…[Read more]

@esther-c

I loved it! It kind of reminds me of Veggietales. Craig would be played by Larry, Gloria would be Petunia, Ethan would be Bob, and Ezra would be Junior Asparagus. XD

@esther-c

Girl this is so good! I love it!

@hybridlore @esther-c @koshka @rae

I am finally writing up on your snowballs to me. (well, this is 1 of hybrid’s balls) I still have 6 more to go!!!!

Without any further delay…here’s the next installment to the Kingdom Pen story!

It was laughter! And it was coming from…Dale stared ahead, across the marble flooring, past flights of stairs, a…

@esther-c

Ooh, this looks interesting. I will read it soon.

@esther-c

That’s now 10 snowballs I have to write…sorry, everybody, I’ve not caught up on them! I’m working on that…

@hybridlore

Sorry…I didn’t get to work on Dale’s story last night! I got highly distracted by reading Space Boy (a webtoon). I really got sucked into it! Not the best thing. I may be able to work on the story tonight. If…[Read more]

@esther-c

Nice, I’ll read it when I have time (probably not until Monday) 🙂 I really like the cover btw.

Ok then, I’ll do this.

Okay! Just wanted to make sure you knew. 🙃

@theshadow Yes, fifty words per snowball. 😉

@esther-c LOL.

@everyone (@highscribeofaetherium) I can also take snowballs now that my stock is all out . . .
