Stone Soup by Jan Eliot for February 18, 2015

steed … good book, otherwise

Oh, please, let this not go into a side-story making us all forget why Max still sucks on a pacifier.

Do I even want to know what a stead is and why Trevor is mounting it? Eww.

Blame the bodice ripper’s proofreader.

Chester Anderson wrote more books than The Butterfly Kid? I didn’t know. Gotta find the others, just gotta.

’Stead of her…

“His steed watched in confusion, shaking his head.”

Luci is getting upset.

Ginny, in answer to your question yesterday, the boy was at least five. It was actually rather ovine – giving up what he valued most.

My hubby rather read 50 shades of Hey will not have Max on pacifier. Max see Luci with pacifier surprised he has not tried more Luci baby stuff.

Ummm, that would be steed, not stead.

Ruth, you and I are kindred spirits. I got into the comments to say the same thing!

I didn’t see all those other kindred spirits until my comment loaded!

Good question Val.

Steed?

Hah! Literal to the nth…:-) :-)

what is the point/connection here between a pacifier and a romance novel? Wasted strip JMHO..

In much earlier times a knight’s horse was referred to as his steed. And the correct term for getting up on a horse to ride it is to mount.

Hey! I’ve been in the horse world all my life — it’s PROPERLY spelled “s-t-e-e-d”! Clean up your proof-reading department!

Yup. Steed!

Luci would like the next bite now, Joan!
