Patterned greens

Today was beautiful, unseasonably warm, with most of the snow melted away. I took the opportunity to dress in a silly manner.


This post's theme word is lentiginous, "covered with freckles." Compare with litiginous for hilarious misheard remarks. Don't give the lentiginous coffeshop girl a compliment, she's very litiginous.

Black and white

A woman, clad only in black and white, was redecorating the front window of this interior design store entirely with black-and-white wallpaper and fabric. I wonder if the yellow ladder felt out-of-place.

This post's theme word is vellicate, "to twitch or to cause to twitch," "to pluck, nip, irritate, etc." The ladder's appearance in an otherwise homogeneously-colored scene caused onlookers to violently vellicate.
