Flavor?

Flavor has many interesting definitions: a hint or suggestion, the aspect of the situation or a feeling or just the sense may be the spice or seasoning or even aroma… nah the essence perhaps of the tang or zest of the thingy, but we all must savor the idea when it may very well, might not be our taste, huh? TA DA!
Words can be amusing and I definitely feel we all should make them our friends, right?
Well that’s just silly, of course they are… aren’t they?
No one can utter a sound without their use, amazing you say!
Nah, you didn’t but I did and now you see and know what I meant.

The reason I chose the word ‘FLAVOR’ tonight to investigate is because I feel it can mean so many things, true?
My first sentence of the evening gave you an inkling of the depth of the word; little did we realize its significance in the world; not so small after all, huh?
Such a tiny inconspicuous regular type guy fixture in most of ours' vocabularies, and never did we figure that it might be one of the most underused expressions of descriptiveness.
But tonight we can rectify its meager utilization and show its profound ability to zestfully broaden the use in any conversation or even any letters or email sentences!
Ask someone for instance, “What flavor are they?”
Or maybe, “Do you smell that wonderful aroma; what flavor is that?”
Let’s try this, “Are you zesty or tangy tonight my dear; your flavor I so want to savor?” Pretty damn sexy huh; OOPS there goes my cringe factor once again…
These lines are to be used with only your family and very close friends since I have no idea what others may think if you try them on them, be careful and this was my disclaimer, thank you very much, all right?
As the expression goes: use it or lose it, got that?

Moving on… today we had company our neighbor from across the canal she spent nearly two hours here and allowed me to speak ridiculously way too much and too long as usual since she can be quite polite and gracious.
After she left we had a quick fast lunch then went off on an errand trip which consisted of the home store this time Lowe’s, since we had a coupon for weed and feed and chose a few other items a packet of marigolds, a dimmer switch for the repair of our broken one for the kitchen and last but not least a hybrid lily, specifically for Florida that comes back yearly and prolifically makes more and a bag of potting soil to start the process in one of our many attractive large pots that we have empty now. This one is a dark red raised designed one but in a lightweight material that I can even lift and NOT break! We have a few like that that we have had for years. Unfortunately the last things in them passed on to that great plant heaven somewhere in the faraway sky…
Next stop was to Jo-Anne’s Crafts and Fabrics and I would also like to add wedding album center, since I was lucky enough to find one with Hubby’s help to replace ours that forty years and hurricane dampness (due to no utilities for two weeks after Charley hit, the hurricane that is, and in the ninety degrees temperatures inside and out in August circa 2004!) had their way with it… this new one is acid free and the book does expand and ten extra pages, sold separately and 40% off of it all and it was all less than $18 bucks, what a great deal!
Last stop was to Publix and we chose some lunches and tonight’s dinner and then home sweet home…

On that flavor-ific near ending to a savory day let me be the first to wish you and yours a very happy good night and to kindly ask you to count hose blessings and to share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
