Ah, such a witty senryu, Chris! Absolutely love it and wish you success in the contest. Not that you "kneaded" my wishes to succeed. LOL Hugs, Carolyn

Thank you so much Carolyn. I am thrilled you liked my little slice of humor. : )

I wrote long, blinked and my comments were gone. Do you think electronics might be female? Believe it or not, I DIDN'T see where this was heading and thoroughly enjoyed my corny-inspired, throat and gut deep laughter. May this rise in the contest! All the best, all the days ... CayCay

This write stirs the senses, and I don't just mean the olfactory one...the aroma of freshly baked bread. It's the kneading part that inspires the other senses ;-). Well done, Chris.

Thanks so much Lin. Just the thought of that aroma makes me smile or maybe I am just hungry. : )

Thanks Heidi. I initially labeled mine "I do not know?" Then went and found a few others for the contest and they were all labeled "Senryu", so I changed mine. : )
