I was thinking WTF you on about, but it occurs to me that perhaps there is a new band starting, "Waldorf Girls?"

I'm giggling like a daft thing here.

My Mum just phoned me up and said she's making some sandwiches, and she wants to, "Posh them up a bit," because she's got my Brother and Sister-in-Law round for tea. I told her to whack a lettuce leaf in each of the ham sandwiches.

She said, "Good thinking! Thanks." Then hung up.

PMSL!!!!

When she gets like this my Dad calls her "The Bucket Woman".

Ahem, that's pronounced "Bouquet" isn't it?

(And I'm American... )

That's a great show, BTW.

Sadly, coming from a writer, I can't say I have a definite meaning of the word "Poshe"... Not a word I use often. Any help?

Glad you understood me, too. I thought Perdita was the only one who'd get me, as I knew she'd seen it.

I know what "Poshe" means, and it's a word I use often, when taking the piss out of people who feel the need to act posh.

Sorry, Mum.

(Like she'd see this!!! )

Lou you're mom is all that!!!

 

[carsonshepherd]

If you want posh...
"watercress". Not lettuce.

 

[wildsweetone]

And there was me thinking that cucumber slivers made the poshest kind of sandwiches! It was lettuce all along!

Frankly, posh to me is black caviar or Frenchy cruditazey things. Sandwiches are kid, workers and family food.

Ah, don't forget the requisite sprig of parsley. Better yet, dice it up into bits and sprinkle it around the plate.

And this being Lit. and a thread by Loulou I was thinking of a different kind of lettuce altogether.

Just to clear the air here. Posh is a word that was once an acronym. In the very old days genteel British travelers going to India request the best cabins which were Port Out, Starboard Home (POSH). Thus, the very best became posh.

Just in case anyone did not know.

Dear Butterhead, I prefer my beloved French Petit Rouge Cos for as much as I love Iceberg, she is frigid. Cos has Romained tender , sweet and faithful which is more than I can say for that Italian looseleaf slut -- Lollo Rossa with her flirty crimson skirts, she of course matured quickly and ran to seed as I predicted she would at the first hint of a warm Spring day. Not that I'm bitter, mind. Arugula for now my little Chickory.




Yes Lou, lettuce can be posh but only if they're brought up right and can announciate their vowels. You of course will never be able to eat a sarnie with your mum ever again. I've noticed that Lit has a way of colouring my world a peculiar shade of risque much of the time...now I can't read seed catalogues without thinking veggie porn! I'm rooned!

I always thought vegimite was kind of posh. Having practically inedible over-salted yeast extract mailed 12,000 km from Oz in order to have it stew inside my fridge and occasionally send unwelcome guests retching always seemed kind of exotic.

Mind you - it can also be eaten.
