Isn't She Lovely?

As Stevie Wonder would say,

Isn't she lovely?
Isn't she wonderful?
Isn't she precious?

This is my niece, Megan, with her auntie circa 1984. She looks like an elfin little Pixie baby, doesn't she?





This is Megan around 1992, age 9, in her house across the road from a NC beach.




Here she is at age 12, blossoming into a beautiful young lady.



This is Meg as a high school cheerleader.


And here's Megan Michelle, aged 23, on her wedding day, September 16, 2006. Growing up on the ocean as she did, like a little water sprite, it was a foregone conclusion that her wedding would take place overlooking the water.





Looking for an unusual restaurant? Here's a couple of oddballs.

From edible menus to patent-pending edible advertisements (the details of which are being kept under wraps), chef Homaro Cantu is taking the science of cooking to another level at culinary laboratory Moto.

I don't know. Wouldn't you wonder just a little about the cuisine if the patrons are eating the menus?


Bradenton, Fla.

Chunk of Skunk? Road Toad a la Mode? Yes, these are some of the offerings on the road grill (shouldn't that be road kill?) menu at the Linger Lodge Restaurant. If you’d rather refrain from snacking on snake or sparrow, there’s a traditional menu with classic southern favorites such as Good Ol' Fashioned Catfish and Old-Florida-Style Fried Chicken.

I can see where this might appeal to a certain clientele, but ... Ewwwww!

Today's Twisted Linguistics lineup looks like this.

And now I go back to ... sitting around waiting on the plumber.
