The prompt for this week from Carrot Ranch is to write about a gnome. I am drowning in Christmas right now: cards, baking, potlucks wrapping… I opted to go with the flow and not fight it. I figure if I could tie Key Lime Pie to the holidays how hard could a gnome be? đ A little research revealed some interesting bits and pieces about gnomes so maybe this letter could be considered historical fiction!
Dear Santa,
My name is Terrence and I am a gnome working as a guard in a diamond mine. While I know this work is important it is not my true passion. What I really love to do is make toys and ornaments. I love glitter!
I have heard there are gnomes who make sleigh bells and I would be happy to do that if there was an opening available.
I believe I can be an asset to your North Pole operation and will be ready for pickup on Christmas Eve if you will have me.
Sincerely,
Terrence Sparkle

Love the picture with the prompt idea! I think Santa will give this one a job- the being handy with glitter has to be a huge selling point at the North Pole?
