“Coctile means simply “heated” as in a stew or a baked brick. The Latin derivation is to cook, bake, boil or roast.
Ovid used to word to describe the walls of Babylon in the sense of “made of baked brick.””

Ah, butt her tail is yet to be warmed up by your descriptive tale above.

"A fine kettle of fish, no less."

I was lucky enough to get paid the last few bucks for a job we finished for a customer, put it in the bank and bought groceries for the rest of the week-maybe I’ll fix a coctile this evening as a treat...

Christmas in the Obama economy
Is so downright disappointing-
Let’s make sure 2016 won’t end
With queen Hillary’s anointing

If she and Bill get back to DC
And live in the WH another time
We’ll have meatless soup to eat
Unless we’ve got an extra dime

And if we can afford some meat
Now and again on what we make-
Then coctile grilled chicken is
On the menu and forget the steak...

Looking for something-anything-to smile about when so many of us out here are broke for like the 4th-5th year in a row, when I was hiking in the woods this morning, I was scuffing through the fallen leaves to enjoy the smell of them-nothing smells quite like dry fallen leaves, and it brings memories of many other hikes in leaves-definite smile material...

I have had my 3yo little friend today. She makes me smile all day. What a charmer. She loves my daughter and her husband. Bonded to them right away. Such a sweetie.

I envy your patience-I’ve never enjoyed keeping/being around small children for any length of time, other than my own-I’ve never been all that patient, neither has my brother. For that, or maybe some other reason, my cub and his cubs were declared the best behaved kids in the family by the aunts and uncles when they were little.

And I do always praise the parents of well-behaved kids I see in the grocery, feed and other stores-easy to spot, they are the ones not crying, shrieking or running around unchecked-unlike in the city-out here, they are in the majority-it is probably like that where you are, too-it does seem that kids are taught to be better behaved in rural communities, villages, etc than in cities these days, possibly because there really isn’t much anonymity-and so more peer pressure-in a small place...
