Hi, its Friday and once again time for Rochelle’s Friday Fictioneers – the inspiration for the flash fiction is a photo from Brenda Fox, see above, I have taken it to be Chinese Market but I could well be wrong! You can see Rochelle’s blog on the link below.
My piece of flash in 100 words is entitled, ‘Lunch at the Chinese Market’, thanks for reading.

I guess her husband’s not so set in his ways, which is good. Maybe some adventure is on the way in their older life. Lovely!

As I read this, I feel blessed to have a husband like mine…picks up my signs, it’s all in the eyes. But restaurants and menus can be daunting, regardless.
