Daily count challenge to itsanonyx

[cmk418]

Didn't get as much done as I wanted today. Wrote 310 words and also did three journal pages. I did, however, make a batch of fruitcake cookies (which I've been wanting to do since November). They were still in the cooling down process when I tasted them. They're not bad but will get better once they've been in the refrigerator overnight.

itsanonyx, it's your turn! Wishing you abundant creativity and cooperative Muses in your day ahead.

Songfic Challenge!

[angelus2hot]

Last Saturday I gave you some songs about making love, sex, whatever you like to call it, etc... and I thought I would keep that going on Saturdays since there are so many songs about that particular subject. Who knew? Should we call it Sex Songs Saturday? :D Hopefully, one of them will inspire the muse.

If you'd like to listen to the songs please click the Watch me link to listen on youtube. Since the lyrics of the songs are more risque I've included links to the videos so as not to offend anyone. I'm gonna say not worksafe.
