The Art of Compromise or Dress Shopping Against my Will
I Have Two Weddings to Go To
I have two weddings to go to, so I thought I’d get myself a nice dress. Not a “that-looked-much-better-on-the internet-but it-sort-of-fits-and-my-sweat-suit-is-in-the-wash” kind of dress.

I hate clothes shopping any more. Those three-way mir

answered a question about
Being a Witch, and Other Things I Didn't Ask For:

“Your friend Mr. Tulip would perhaps like part of your payment to be the harpsichord?" said the chair.
"It's not a --ing harpsichord, it's a --ing virginal," growled Mr. Tulip. "One --ing string to a note instead of two! So called because it was an instrument for --ing young ladies!"
"My word, was it?" said one of the chairs. "I thought it was just of sort of early piano!”
