Fylfot now also means, proof that my husband cheats at Words with Friends.
Honestly how to you just happen to put down a bunch of letters and come up with a word that no one has used in 400 years. I am a big enough nerd to have read books on medieval glass and window making as well as heraldic symbolism and I did not know that word. To add salt to the wound he got 92 points for it. 92!
Yes these are the sourest of sour grapes.
I know I owe you all an explanation for my long absence this week and I promise I'll get it. For now I have 100 + point deficit to make up for. I am calling in the big guns, Merriam, Roget and Webster.
