On their tongues
As they run amuck in the street.
Pastry chef, I believe, you're next."

Your silence most offends me, and to be merry best becomes you; for, out of question, you were born in a merry hour.
No, sure, my lord, my mother cried; but then there was a star danced, and under that was I born.

Hi Sarah,
Thanks for stopping by! I have been absent from my own site for so long, I just now noticed your comment. Yes, there are moments when only something ridiculous and extravagant can make me smile.
Cheers,
Laura
