In this contest you will write only one line. It will be something profound your mom said to you.

The idea for this contest came to me today when my daughter was making cookies and I saw that there was still some cookie dough in the bowl and I started scraping it out and she KNEW I WAS GONNA eat it and she said,

"There's raw egg in that."

Well, MY MOM USED TO SAY THAT, EXACTLY! I thought I would just die when my daughter said it.

Rules:

Well, how could you do anything too bad in one line?
So there are no rules. LOL

    great contest idea

    Hey, I love this contest idea. The inspiration about when your daughter said that about the raw egg had me laughing out loud!!!! I love it! She seems to be very witty and quick!! I am still tickled. What a precious memory that will always be!

    Hi Melodies! Is one sentence okay or does it have to fit on one line only? If so, I can change the statement to make it shorter.

    "Don't have sex in alleys!" Not sure where she got that, and don't really want to think about it too much
