it rolls with the tongue


Word of the day:
Bijou (or plural, Bijoux). Yep, clearly French. Excellent example of usage via the NYTimes: "Lilly, it seems, never did marry a millionaire, but she had tons of sugar daddies, who kept her in sable and bijoux." (Sable referring to fur, and bijoux referring to jewelry.) What a delicious word!

Also delicious: rhubarb crumble, a wonderful memory of music in Paris, and this amazing studded jacket.
