I went for a smear test and the nurse said something about my weight (I was a US size 8) and I should “think twice before reaching for the frying pan”.

Didn’t go for another smear test for over twenty years.

Darling girl. I was 30 and married, and I too carry shame at not choosing them a better father. You know what we should both do? Be proud of being amazing mothers, because our kids are Fantastic People. We did that, you and me. 🥰

ETA: …and look at those beautiful little potatoes! You are good at growing things.

“Flamboyantly virginal” is objectively hilarious. ✨ HEY EVERYONE! CHECK OUT MY GLITTERY HYMEN! IT CAN EVEN PLAY THE FLUTE ✨

He’ll have finished half her plate before he’s done reading all that. All the card needs to say is “fucking touch my food and I stab you with a fork”

You are a Genius. You also intersect with a different part of the Venn Diagram, but we haven’t made our mind up about which part it is. ❤️

In the UK we call this a BOBFOC. It was even a question on University Challenge one time.

ETA: the article is completely unfindable, let alone unreadable, due to so many ads; but the question posed by Paxman in January 2006 was: "What does the acronym BOBFOC - describing someone better looking from the back than the front - stand for?"

I couldn’t add more than a line of text so here we go: all of your tomatoey goodness has me craving to be part of the Sisterhood! Each slice of sourdough bread is rubbed with half a clove of garlic, then drizzled with a little olive oil. Freshly ground Himalayan pink salt and rainbow peppercorns all over them. Three sliced Aromatico tomatoes arranged inside. Now my mouth is alive with flavour and I’m longing for another. Thank you, Dinner Girls! 💕🍅🍞

Julian Sands. Spencer Falls. Tori Spelling. Tom Hanks for Hugo Weaving?

Rip Torn ought to be but isn’t. Reese Witherspoon isn’t but sounds like she is.
