Have you ever had a moment where you just let your mind
wander and play the What If game?
Writers often use this method to generate ideas and start the creative juices
flowing. As I was working on meal preparations, ideas began to dance. Here is
what developed…
·
Mrs. Dash is one of my favorite seasonings,
but is there a Mr. Dash?
·
What
would happen if Uncle Ben and Aunt Millie got married? Would they
have little rice cakes?
· What
if Aunt Annie and Aunt Jemima were sisters, would they
have a lot of dough?
·
If
you eat a lot of Red Velvet Cake
will you feel soft and warm inside?
· If
you have problems with your blue tooth
do you call a dentist (ok, this one isn’t a food item, but still food for
thought)
· Who
is Granny Smith? How many grandkids
does she have? Does she only like apples?
· If
Mrs. Butterworth and Mrs. Dash were in a race, who do you
think would win?
Use these ideas or add your own at story starters.
Now that you see how to play the What If game, what would you add to the list?
