The latest creative short story "word challenge" Today, is related to the English literal meaning of the word Elixir 😀

My story begins...

Today i'm thinking back to an amazing Holiday in the Tunisian town of Sousse, where there are so many market style shops with beautiful hand made pottery and dishes. The Tunisian shop owners are expert salesmen and will very quickly entice you into the back of their shop. Once there, they will make you a cup of tea with many herbs and spices, which he then persuades you that you're drinking the Elixir of Life. A "cure all" concoction that will cost you money, be hard to resist, and be extremely difficult to leave the shop without purchasing something 😀
