  • Where I come from, a cake eater is an affluent person (or any person from a previously affulent family, regardless of current social standing) of European (probably not eastern European, however) background. Also sometimes referred to as a WASP. My mother's side of the family always referred to my father's side of the family as cake eaters. Maybe that makes me a cupcake eater...

  • We have a few black walnut trees on our property. If you've ever harvested them, you'll understand why, now, we leave them for the various fauna that frequent the area. They are quite valuable and I've tried to convince my children to make a little business of selling them - to no avail. They just don't want to work that hard for a bit of nutmeat. Can't say that I blame them. Maybe one day...

I think this aliyyah must be some sort of tent or awning structure" were left off. What's up with that?

  • Very interesting article. I think that if you are worried that a sommelier has drunk a bit of your very expensive wine, it's probably because you couldn't afford it in the first place... I've forwarded to my brother, a sommelier. I'm curious to hear his take on the subject.

  • Wow. Thanks rt and rz! I got an email about a month ago with that string of quotes in it... not sure why or from whom...

    July 25, 2010

  • "Thy sire saw the light that shone" is Bret Harte ("On a Cone of the Big Trees"). I think ruzuzu's right about Ferlinghetti, but just the "and the sun paints white houses" part. (The full line is "And then the halcyon late mornings/after the fog burns off/and the sun paints white houses/with the sea.")

    In William Blake's "The Mental Traveller" you'll find the phrase "By various arts of love and hate." I've not seen all three phrases together, though.

    June 23, 2010

  • That "sun paints white houses" part reminds me of Lawrence Ferlinghetti... but I'm not sure. Good luck!

    June 22, 2010

  • Very sweet, Pro. "What a stupid world."

  • There is probably nothing that I can say to be of any support.

    But I thought I would share this phrase I read once*:

    "I'm crying because out there he's gone, but he's not gone inside me."

    I think this is also the reason why you will, one day, be able to stop crying: he will never be gone inside you.

    *It's a comic strip, although not a funny one. You can read it here if you want.

  • wordies: I needed a break from grieving after having lost my brother last week. I came to wordnik, clicked on 'never put your bananas in the refrigerator' and got just what I needed. Thank you. You are just what I needed. Carry on. I'll be back. *blows kisses*
