there is always a certain peace in being what one is, in being that completely

mercurial
Some of my favorite people are moody to the point of mercurial--which is fine with me, since I tend to be rather unpredictable at times.
syllabub
[Are you kidding? There aren't any useful words that could pop up in the Word of the Day besides this? Or is this the Word of the Day for Readers of Historical Romance Novels of a Certain Type?]
Syllabub sounds revolting, undrinkable as Mountain Dew.
arbiter
Is it fair that the so-called arbiter of all disputes is the person who's allegedly caused them? I do not think so!

Looking for a picture of something else, I found a couple of myself that I don't think I've shared, and also took a new one.
Baby me.
Proof that I played with dolls, once!
2-y-o me.
Proof that I wasn't much of a bather - and that by this point I'd stopped playing with dolls ('cause this one's in pristine condition).
My new shot glass, thanks of The Big Cat, who just got back from California.

  1. The dessert-y syllabub sounds interesting, actually. Might be good...but yeah, this calendar is definitely stretching.

    Doll #2 might be new and thus unblemished? What I find more interesting about your pictures is that so many of them are taken with you near a table. Apparently you were hard to catch if not seated at a table. ;-)

    1. I never thought about the table situation. You're probably right! Please note the books behind me in the second one. I still have that book shelf! :))
