oh i love your writing. Just have to say that you gave me extra giggles (always welcome) with the footnote, quoting the use of "secrete" in the article. Did the Tatars have a special gland for that? Makes it even less palatable, amiright?

(truly I'm not being a spelling dickhead, just thought you too might enjoy the absurdity)

Still giggling, although have got serious for a moment to commit that quote to heart so it can become my mantra.

Am completely bemused as to why one would put one’s teabag in the microwave….um?

And I knew about that job description- the benefits of steaming towards 100 as you say-but didn’t know they were called Fluffers.

So now I’m wondering if should stop using my favourite expresssion, which I employ to avoid the F bomb :Stop fluffing around.
