Yeah I was thinking the same thing. What is a gelatin salad? It sounds terrible. Also why does P always seem to be capitalized?
tinypliny - 10/19/10 22:58
Still, a gelatin salad? No, thank you.
heidi - 10/19/10 22:41
There are commas! Salads: Tossed, gelatin, cole slaw. :-)

You like Kelly so much, you stenciled her name on your tires?

Tossed gelatin coleslaw. I am not sure I would be overjoyed if I saw that on the menu.

Lamp needs shade, part 2
Category: stuff
Scored a totally awesome lamp shade at A's house today when I dropped nisha off... But it is way too big for the lamp. Darn. In other news, A's little brother backed over an azalea bush in uncle dudley's yard last night. I think she's asking him to replace the azalea, including digging out the old one, and he has to be good to A for a whole year. Not quite sure how his treatment of A fits into the amends...

My favourite books right now are Simon Doonan's awesome body of work.

I don't know about that. If "boyfriend" oversize blazers can be a fashion statement, so can oversize lamp shades. Lamp shades are an extension of personal fashion.

(Can you tell I have been reading one too many fashion blogs? In fact, I am obsessed with fashion blogs now. They are such a hoot!)

Uncle Dudley said it's an azalea but I can't tell them apart. (Oh, just read that azaleas are a specific kind of rhododendron :::link:::)

(e:tinypliny) - the shade is too big for the lamp! It is a smashing shade tho. It's currently perched on top of another lampshade on a very plain pole lamp. Uncle Dudley said there's a lamp in her living room that would be flattered by the shade but since I just inventoried almost every lamp in her house, I can't figure out which one. Maybe that boy with grapes (see two posts down).

sucks about the shade, but i have hope you will find it!

that bush looks like a rhododendron to me, no?
tinypliny - 10/18/10 01:41
The lamp looks capital!

Heh, Uncle Dudley sounds like the aunts in Saki's works. ;-)

Burdette, in a resplendent red coat, took a step forward into the arena. The crowd watched in anticipation as the gates smashed open. The bull rushed at her at a dizzying speed. Her sympathetic nervous system was signalling desperately, but she ignored it. This was HER moment!

Alas, it wasn't. She broke her left femur.

Could someone write a 55-word nanofiction that would give the back story?

(don't know why this didn't rotate properly. Am I doing something wrong?)
