Sunday Sip & Serve — Finish the Saying
Coffee on? Tea steeping? Good.
Today’s Sunday Sip & Serve is going back to the sayings Grandma could deliver without checking a book, opening Google or explaining herself twice.
Some answers will arrive before you finish reading. One or two may be hiding in the back of the cupboard.
No Googling. No asking the person beside you. Just you, your memory and whatever is in your cup.
