The Mistake
Hello Vicar, I have brought you a few flowers; they were left over from decorating the church for the flower festival.
Wow that’s a lot of packing boxes!
Has Mrs Mc Duffy over ordered on the altar candles again?

Short and sweet and to the point!
So glad to get your comment, thank you Dale
Nice story , Michael. I love the honesty of the person who brought flowers and Mrs Mc Duffy’s generosity. Looks like a warm community to live in .

Thank you so much. Gravadee.
I sense Mrs McDuffy makes a habit of over ordering!
She certainly does, perhaps I should write about them,
Dear Michael,
Short and ever so charming. I could picture Mrs. McDuffy as being something of what we call an air-head. Well meaning and sweet, but not a lot going on upstairs.
Shalom,
Rochelle
I may be tempted to write alittle about her, after reading your feedback, thank you so much for your comment Rochelle.
It’s always a problem when you think you’re ordering 10 and end up with 10 boxes 🙂
So true, lovely to read your feedback. Thank you.
Hee-hee-heee! The shortest story I ever read here at FF HQ. Also, the funniest in terms of brevity. It just hit me like a shot!
The word “where” should probably have been “were.” I hate it when that happens.

I was so pleased to receive your prayers. I always need them when it comes to spellings relating to sound. Thank you so much
Juts happened to be in the neighborhood. 😉
Thanks for the laughter 🙂
Loved that you enjoyed my brief attempt at story telling for this weeks FF
I liked this glimpse into their lives. I think we all have a Mrs. Mc Duffy in our lives.
So pleased to have your comment.
Excellent.
Once there used to be a trifecta challenge here of 33 words story. It would have nicely fit in.
Thank you kindly yarnspinnerr
This made me smile. Short and sweet and lovely.
Thank you kindly Alicia
I can envision this. Laughing at the prospect!
So pleased I caused you to laugh, laughter is good.
🙂 What a lovely take on the prompt. It made me smile and feel warm at the same time 🙂
So glad that you enjoyed this brief story. Thank you so much for your kind comments.
Nice slice of life. Sounds like they could have a nice candle ceremony to go with the flower festival.
I also thought a candle fest would be good. So pleased to get your comment, Sascha
Short and sweet. And that’s a lot of altar candles…
It looks as if the church will have to go into the candle wholesale business. Thank you Sandra
Haha..cute story.
Glad you enjoyed it Dawn
I echo what others said about the story being short and sweet. I also admire how much character and atmosphere you managed to pack into these few words. It feels like being there.
That is such a kind comment – Thank you.
