Mundane Monday Challenge is created to find beauty in almost everything.
The challenge is simple. Find beauty in everyday mundane things, capture the beauty and upload the photographs.
They are just plain towels we use every day, but the folding makes the difference 🙂

Walking to my car in the garage, I noticed a curious black smear of paint or coal tar, not sure which one it is, however, the interesting shape seemed like a head of a cheeky imp and I couldn’t resist taking a photo of it. My camera has become a daily companion.

The difference between a slippery fall and not falling lay in the cute banana peel caution.
I am glad someone placed it there ‘cos I was clicking away happily on my camera and would probably have been the one to land on her backside if not for the fact that some sensible person placed that cute caution to alert passersby to watch out for the spilt liquid.

Jacqueline writes from her heart on passion, pain, suffering, loss and LIFE. I have been incredibly moved by her poetry and I know I will return to “Out of the Silent Breath” again and again.

I opened a bread bag to make some toast and left the piece of rubber string used for tying the nylon bag on the counter as I ate for some reason my eyes drifted to the counter and I saw that the string reflected on the counter to form a love sign so I just decided to play around a bit.
The first photo was taken just as I saw it and the second was my son walking past in his red jersey top and his reflection also got caught 🙂
Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder and we can create beauty out of nothing.

I got into an empty lift two days ago to head up to the 23rd floor of an office complex and I was busy ruminating in my head over what I wanted to say to the person that I was going to meet when a crawly movement caught my eye.
Believe me when I say I literally squealed and hopped in the air, but on a closer look I saw that it was a GECKO!
Phew! I know that they are insectivorous lizards and don’t feed on humans, however between Gecko and I, we maintained a respectable distance since I couldn’t very well jump out of the lift 😉
If you want to know more about Gecko’s you can read this up 20 interesting facts about them that I googled up.
Have a great week.

The two exhibits are not mundane objects in the least. Possibly, they are objects of fantasy for some people, but what drew my attention is the fact that they are electrically charged, therefore they are supposed to be eco-friendly.
I can’t very well say that I understand the technology, but having been inside one of the eco-friendly taxis in Dubai, I asked the driver how it is compared to the fuel driven car, he was full of accolades.
If this will reduce the fossil fuel burning, excavation, pollution and corrupt practices that has been associated with crude oil and gas, then this might just be the way to go in the near future.
I hope that they actually become ordinary.

![Water[1]](https://acookingpotandtwistedtales.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/water1.jpg)
I woke up this morning and the first thought I had on my mind was to drink some water.
That got me thinking a lot about water. An essential need of human life. Features in every ramification of our lives.
Have you noticed that when you are thirsty for water, no other drink can quench that thirst?
It also takes my mind to the fact where most of us take clean water to drink for granted, that there are places on Earth where people have to walk for miles to find clean water to drink.

I was rushing to meet someone and arrived a few minutes before our agreed time. When I looked at the clock that they had on the wall, I still had two minutes to sit down and catch my breath before stepping in for the chat.
As I sat there, I ruminated a bit on how this everyday gadget called ‘clock or watch,’ has become a trusted custodian of time. We rely on it in so many ways – sometimes annoying us when alarm shrieks to wake you up or when the time seems to run away too fast or go too slow dependent on one’s circumstance.

Is it usual to have a little birdie create a road block when you are stepping out for a brisk walk? The mirrored feet in the glass belongs to me 😉
Birdie stood nicely while I took several shots and finally flew away to its own business, not agreeing to go for a stroll with me. Lovely not so mundane way to start an ordinary day.

The friendly Moth on the window pane came flitting by to say hello where I sat outside having a bit of chill time with my daughter who was filling my ears with school stuff.
My girl squealed and took off so fast you would think the moth is a foe. We are all differently cut out.
Interestingly, she can stare at vile snakes (at the zoo) that mere thoughts of them gives me the heebie-jeebies, while a Moth gives her the shivers 🙂
I had to fish out facts about Moths to teach her that they are harmless.
