Shake, shake, shake it up, shake it out, shake it all around — what the hell? Not my strongest start. Let’s go again.
But now my brain’s stuck on the fact that there are hints of the Hokey Pokey song in there. Moving on.
And now I’ve got Taylor Swift’s Shake It Off scrolling through my brain but nope, no sir, no ma’am, I cannot do a post on Taylor Swift. What would I say? It’s not like Shake It Off was some sort of anthem for the time. Can’t fault her for a catchy bop, though, I gotta say.
What else? I guess there’s Shake and Bake. I remembered that being some great way to prepare chicken from back in the day but then I tried it again when I was grown and, well, it just didn’t seem that great. Cloudy memory brain I guess.
Y’all, I don’t think this post can be saved. Stream of consciousness demands I suck it up and schedule the thing. Ugh.
I know what Taylor would say.
Linda hosts Stream of Consciousness Saturday. This week’s prompt is “shake.” Use it any way you’d like. Enjoy!

I absolutely love this “non-post”! Just goes to prove that a talented writer can make a story out of any thought that happens to pop into his or her head. I’m not particularly talented, but I can remember a number of times when I managed to create a post from something I picked up around the house, or something I saw or heard on the TV, radio, or just around the burbs. You’ve made my day, and I thank you.

What a kind comment! While plenty of my posts may seem random I try to avoid rambling so it was hard hitting publish for this post. Thank you for stopping by.

Nice stream. The Hokey Pokey is now running around my brain. Fun and silly memories.

Thanks JoAnna. Here’s hoping that Hokey Pokey was a short lived stick. 😉

Shake and Bake…I haven’t thought of that brand for years. I think we tried it once. That was enough.

It was entirely underwhelming. My mom was an outstanding baker but only cooked a few dishes really well. I’m guessing Shake and Bake chicken would have been her way to fancy up chicken…crazy what pops into my head on stream of consciousness days.
