On revisiting I read "our prawns are bigger than our
seiches [i.e., squid or cuttlefish]."

I can see that.... ;) We used to drive by a sign for a fish market (in
the middle of almost nowhere, well, between Wiiliamson and Sodus, on Rt
104) that advertised Giant Shrimp along with Clams and other stuff...

To be fair, usage of the term shrimp to mean shrimpy
is a relative newcomer.

arranged the bottles in a specific order so as to make
filling my medicine box easier, and I found that the
blood pressure medication was in the place of the
insulin activator, and vice versa. For a second I
wondered why the bottle with the giant gram pills was
suddenly populated by these minuscule ant-size ones.

They swapped places just to mess with your mind.... ;)

According to my brother (whose testimony is of

actually believe that there were gremlins moving

like that. We come by our looniness over a long
period of time. It would be even more problematic
if the pills actually showed up labeled as each
other or, worse, something else altogether.

Aah, another Ms. Half Full. To me they're
bugs on kites.

As long as they aren't biters, that's not a problem... :)

Luckily they don't have jaws but straws.

Eliminate it too!

---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.01

Title: Sunday Loaf
Categories: Breads, Breakfast
Yield: 18 servings

3 c Flour 1/2 c Strawberry
jam/preserves
1/2 c Sugar 3/4 c Milk
4 ts Baking powder 2 tb Butter
1 ts Salt 2 tb Sugar
8 tb Butter, chilled 2 tb Raspberry jam or
2 Eggs 2 tb Strawberry jam
1/2 c Raspberry jam/preserves or

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x5x3-inch loaf pan. Combine the
flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir with a
fork to mix all dry ingredients well. Cut the butter into small pieces
and
drop into the flour mixture. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, rub
or
cut the cold butter into the flour until mixture resembles coarse bread
crumbs. Beat the eggs well in a small bowl, add the jam or preserves and
milk; whisk until the mixture is blended smooth. Stir the egg mixture
into
the flour mixture and stir only until no flour streaks show--the mixture
wil be lumpy. Spoon into the loaf pan and bake for about 1 hour 15
minutes,
or until a straw inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow loaf to
remain in the pan for 15 to 20 minutes before turning it out onto a rack.
Meanwhile, make the glaze by combining the butter, sugar, and jam in a
pan.
Stir and bring to a simmer; continue stirring until dissolved and
blended.
Strain and then spoon the glaze over the loaf after it has cooled on the
rack.

True... but Richard almost always commented on the incongruity... :)

Then one might actually be tempted to believe in your mother's (alleged) gremlins.... :)
