Bulwer-Lytton, the greatest Polish cosplayer
ever, was in full armor when he attempted
to write his biography while dining on the
preserved remains of a silver dancing bug
found dead on his dining table. It was
neatolicious; but in the end, cavities were
all he had to show for his efforts.

Happy Friday Miss C!

I can't imagine any cat poking their head up in the middle of the table while you're eating and not decide to join you. At least a sniff and a lick to check each food for cat-worthy flavors.

I got SHUT-OUT of this year's Bulwer Lytton winners... and I thought I had a really good entry!~ maybe if they'd left off the inspiration sentence and the blurb about the renamed category (formely Dishonorable Mentions), there would've been a place for it!
