Salami


A lesson in creativity: write the first ten words that come to mind. Go.

salami
jump
pillow
flower
nest
crazy
plop
nobody
gallop
sunshine

Now, do something with those words. Write a story. A poem. Draw a picture. Make a rap. A rhyme. Something. Anything.

Except, I have no idea what I'm supposed to do with salami.

Please leave your ten words in the comments. I'm curious and a little loopy.

    Salami is genius. Can all 10 of my words be salami? I'm completely fascinated. Or maybe other meats, or salami in other languages. For real though-

    chopsticks
    lipstick
    tea
    climber
    stress
    love
    houseguest
    label maker
    piggy
    lamb

    goop
    hairspray
    sister
    chapstick
    love
    hate

    Funny how your mind goes blank when you're supposed to think with individual words instead of images/complete thoughts. I was feeling the pressure! Maybe I'll do something with these words over on my blog...?
