EDM #206 "We call it....."

This was wicked fun! I got a bit carried away, as you can see. There's more writing than drawing, but this is about words afterall.



The little blob to the left of the Redemption Center building is a bag of soda cans.

Enjoyed reading these! They reminded me of some that I'd forgotten like "elastic". Similar to your ruf (for roof), I know someone who used to pronounce room more like rum. That made me laugh!

Oh did this make me laugh, living in the NE and originating from the west, I was often teased about Ruf - and there were a few more - I will have to think?? Clam strip/belly - know that one well and of course with DH being from Maine, there are lots of R problems ;-)

Sue said...

Yes! The Rs. They are inserted in odd places and not used in other places. Huss is one. Someone was telling my husband they were going to a huss show. It was a horse show.

I have a friend named Lisa and so asked her if, as a kid, she wanted to spell her name Liser. She said no. She always knew it didn't have an R.

Now I have taken to referring to where I work as Auguster...
