Where DOES the time go? I see that my last posting was March, and I thought it was maybe just a few days ago. (Promises herself to post more, and to keep a careful eye on the calendar in future).
I thought I could revive this flagging blog with a mind-improving photograph. Is it for real?!

I think the word that upset them was a word beginning with p---- referring to a juvenile cat, though, to be honest, I was applying it in a somewhat different context.
Naughty Sheila!!

Damn, I can't provoke them! OK, try this:

I am stuck on one word in my crossword puzzle.
"A four-letter word relating to the female sex."
I have the last three letters - U N T.
Of course!!!
AUNT

See if that wakes up the blue-pencillers!

What for goodness' sake are trackbacks and pingbacks?? They seem to be hurdles to communication. Big Brother watching us? Bowdler lives?
I am going to write a naughty word to see if that provokes BB or Mr B.

There! I just don't care!

I tried to write and post a little piece, but for some reason blog.co.uk won't publish it. I promise you there is nothing in it that would bring a blush to your Aunt Mary's cheeks, so I am baffled. But then, I am easily baffled these days.

This is an ancient legend, found all across the Mediterranean area, the legend of the "figa dentata" ( the "fig" with teeth. Go figure). It's a male nightmare, which, to be honest, doesn't bother me in the least tiny bit!

This is FOR REAL! Now I know why I am so fond of Indian cuisine, even if it does make me sweat!

My goodness, where does the time go?! I promised myself to write something every day like you do in a diary (or did when you were a blushing adolescent). Anyway, I came across this cartoon, and it tickled my fancy. I hope you like it too.
Kisses

Why do I never get invited to posh do's like this one?!
