Linda G Hill’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt is tin or a word containing tin.

I looked up a list of 4000 words that have tin in them, and by far the most plentiful are words that end in ting. Ting a ling a ling on the tinny winny drum. Sing a ling a ling to a tinny song that’s sung. Sing a song of 6 tin, a pocket full of why, 4 and 20 sardines made into a pie. When the pie was opened, sardines tasted of metal, tin can fish pie can really test your mettle. Tin and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of peanuts, Tin got roasted, Jill got toasted, and Tin showed Jill his really neat way of rolling down the hill. Lots of tin and lots of ting, oh merrily we all can sing. Happy Holidays to All! Tra la la la la.

    A delightful take on the ‘tin’ prompt! I did not know they make pink Ting! We love the regular ting (and Red Stripe, ‘cuz we love Jamaica too!).

      I never knew Ting existed before yesterday, I randomly searched for ting. Never been to Jamaica but have heard it is paradise. The thing I read on Ting (another rhyme) is that it has grapefruit pulp in it. Check it out on your next trip :)
