| a din of parrots | January 20, 2009 | What’s the collective noun for a bunch of parrots? I have decided it’s “a din” As in “the din of parrots outside in my tree are making it difficult for me to concentrate”. Because, you know, like, they’re also making a great din. So it’s got, like, you know, double meaning, which is like, you […] |

| A mild case of domestic goddessness | January 17, 2009 | I’m feeling extremely pious because I have just cleaned out the fridge.

Not only was there no added chocolate, butter, cream or lard, but there was also no pouting in a disturbing fashion to the camera crew in the kitchen, […] |
