Realizations For Today

There are many good movie/television and food pairings.
AMC's "The Walking Dead" and poached eggs with salsa are not one of them.
Also, for my intelligent and nerdy friends (which I am pretty certain is everyone reading this), the Oxford English Dictionary is attempting to save old and unused words by returning them to common usage - and to this extent, they are inviting people to adopt individual words and use them as often as possible. Take a peek, and pick one, please - mine is "cloakatively." It means "superficially."
It may seem, cloakatively, like this is a silly and pointless thing to do, but.... well, okay, maybe it is. But I am kind of looking forward to long conversations in the comments here with people using words like colaphize and panchymagogue.
(Also also, because I am home sick and have very little else to entertain me, check out the new icon! I love my husband, he makes me cute stuff....)

Maybe even better for a zombie (or (sigh) vampire) mobster movie.
