Mag 55 - Taking it a step too far



When life gives you lemons you should
bloody well make lemonade!
- MLydiaM, March 2011




This is a Magpie Tale, albeit a short one from me this week.

Uh, thanks for the tip, but I like the tiger photo better than the lemonade photo.

Fireblossom said...

Yeeps! Uh, just leave it by the door, okay?

runzzzzzzz ;-)

Helen said...

I bloody well agree ..........

Lydia said...

Snowbrush~ I totally agree with you about the images. (Some months ago Fireblossom - commenting below you - wrote that the tiger's mouth looks "almost toy-like," which I also agreed with.)

Fireblossom~ Question is, would you really drink it even if it were left by the door? ish!

Helen~ Hah! :)

kj~ Interesting reaction! I am anxious to spend some time this weekend reading others' Magpies generated from this rather disconcerting photo prompt. When I saw it all I could think of was a personal episode that involved slicing my thumb with a box cutter that I was (stupidly) using on top of the kitchen counter...hence, the kitchen-blood theme. Visit to the ER and 16 stitches later and I was fine. Ouch.

I have to admit that's the most frightening piece of fruit I've ever seen. One might need tongs to remove it from the table.

Bloody short, bloody sweet...and bloody funny! Vb

Lydia said...

Ah! Roger Milller revisited. (You can't roller skate in a water melon patch... but you can be happy if you've a mind to!)
All else is a bloody waste of time.

Lydia said...

Jingle Poetry~ Thanks for the invitation! You enticed me. :)

Stafford Ray~ Roger Miller...wow, haven't thought of him for ages! I loved his song King of the Road and haven't thought of it for ages, either. Think I will visit your blog and then look for the song on youtube. :)
