Poll?

Lol.

This place is overpolled. Is Switzerland a wholesome country..are we wholesome people, having wholesome fun & food here?

I am just musing. I will go home and make wholesome garam masala lentils.

Pastel.

Fauvism

Truffes au lait

Fauvism? Very awesome. Wholesome art! Just saw some Matisse at the Smithsonian.

And, I bet eating truffes makes one feel noble and aristocratic. I've never tried them.

A feast for the eyes..

I've had them on fresh pasta with a little bit of butter, made on a camping stove at a campsite in the South of France, and it made me feel like a king.

Bloomsbury

Ha! I was teaching V. Woolf for IB not long ago, loved the whole scene! Was just thinking about it today, since I have various groups (paint group, study gr., knitting gr.) but we have never named any..That"s a good word, ST!

That eyecandy of painting you posted is interesting..always good to have visuals for threads dealing with lexical stuff, sound bites, smells, colors.

How lovely: butter, camp stove, campsite and southern France..already winning, even before they get truffes added. Love them all.

Indian summer.

Harvest.

Fruit preserves.

Candid.

Guts.

Heat wave.

Water.

Be very careful about referring to fruit preservatives. You may fall into a 'false friend' trap here, resulting for instance in a shop girl tittering uncontrollably behind her hand in response to an otherwise perfectly innocent/decent request.

Poppycock!

Obviously fruit preserves. Why else would old people have wrinkles?

Fruit preserves, indeed.

And, Iceberg lettuce.

Silly sausage.

Sweat.
