*vinegarish*

Now say it with me ---> (VIN-I-GER-ISH)

Goal: You must use some form of the word in a sentence that contextualizes its definition. You are welcomed to challenge the group with a word of your own choice.

For example: While the vinegarish tone of the boards may be off-putting to some, for others, it is nothing more than spirited amusement.

Ah, good one, my little pastryplumptart.

*mitigation*

Having spent the eve of their anniversary drawing lines in the sand, Mitch hoped to mitigate any resentment from the missus by spending lavishly.

"so,what's the word of today —"

HSD suggested "mitigation". Personally, I like "tomfoolery"...oh, and "lackadaisical". Do you have something better?

"Are you the birthday girl too,SS ?"

loosely linked in a drunken way........

'disculpen las molestias' is a road sign that you see in spain where there are road works. it means 'sorry for the inconvenience' but i thought it meant 'discipline molesters'.

thanks, roxi! i got them on sale, and with that kind of bargain, i refused to leave the store w/o them. lol

no, i haven't seen the 8 in heels of which you speak. although, i've seen cate blanchett in 7 in heels. i think it was cate blanchet. anyway, i'd literally fall, break my neck, and die in those.
