Hey there!

I'm Brooke. I blog over at Silver Lining. Emma asked me to guest post today {yes, ok, fine, if you insist, just to be gracious, not like I'm super honored or anything}. I'd love to ramble on and on in this post about my everyday life, being a newlywed, and the small things that make life so full of silver linings.

But I do that all the time at my blog. Instead, I thought I'd be concise today. So I'm doing 6-word memoirs.

Have you guys heard of six-word memoirs? 

Basically, Ernest Hemingway was once asked to write a six-word short story. This is what he came up with:

For Sale: baby shoes, never worn.

Stories don't have to be long. They don't have to be fancy or filled with big words. Either do blog posts. So here are some 6-word memoirs I came up with on the spot. Enjoy!

Me:

One cavity, one speeding ticket, summer freckles.

Husband:

Saving the world with hand-eye coordination.

Us:

Snuggling trumps to-do lists, no exceptions.

Our big day:

His black tux- something important happened?

Currently thinking:

Keep blogging or vacuum hairy spider?

And:

Elephant paradise involves antiquity and talcum.

And:

My bangs are growing out awkwardly.

Okay, I better stop before I get carried away with this :) Now it's your turn! Make up a 6-word memoir. The first thing that comes to mind. I dare you! Leave it in a comment, or else hop on over to my blog and tell me your memoir.

Thank you so much Emma for letting me invade your adorable blog!

Brooke just seriously wowed me! I LOVE these six-word memoirs. But let's be honest, I haven't written one yet because I'm afraid it will suck. Brooke wrote so many wonderful ones though! I guess I can give it a try! 


Here goes {on what I'm doing RIGHT now}:
Christmas music fills me with joy.
No snuggle time- UGH video games! {Haha}
Nap time ruined my bedtime. Oops!


Well, there are a few for you! Now give it a go and then head over and check out Brooke's wonderful blog! {And share your six-word memoirs with her!}
