I sighed in annoyance. The dodonkwa snack didn't turn out the way grandmama makes hers.

"So? How was it?" She asked. I showed her a plate of the burnt snack with a scowl.

She clicked her tongue in disapproval. "You must persist until you get it right. Do it again."

Nice! I can be very persistent when I am going after something I really want to do well. What we tend to forget is that they probably didn't get it right the first time either.

True. In most cases, we don't succeed after the first try. It usually takes persistence to achieve perfection! Thanks for your comment. !CTP !LADY 🙂

I agree. After much editing, squashing a story into 50 words is fun! Thanks so much for your visit. ☺️ !LADY !LUV
