"There's nothing better on a foggy, fallish day than a hot feed of fish and brewis with figgy duff for dessert. Keeps you from getting all farbed up."
----------
Fallish - the feeling of autumn in the air
Farbed up - confused and not in control
Fatback - a piece of fatty tissue from a pig
Figgy duff - a boiled pudding made with flour, water and raisins (also called fig duff or figgy pudding)
Fish and Brewis - a meal of fish accompanied by soaked hard bread served separately on the same plate and covered with scrunchins(fried fatback) and hot, rendered pork oil.
Fog - collection of water droplets suspended in the air at or near the Earth's surface. (pictured above)
Farbled - I feel like that some days!
ReplyDeleteI like "farbed up". I think I can use that in a sentence this week. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm putting farbed up in my repertoire.
ReplyDeleteLove the expressions! And the photo. And the colours on your blog. :)

I was with you for fog fallish and figgy duff....I love farbed, it could be a permanent condition.
ReplyDeleteI like "figgy duff" sounds like something a fairy might eat LOL Have a fantastic day!
ReplyDeleteI think I called you babybaygirl.... sorry. Now I get it.... that Christmas song, it goes, "bring us a figgy pudding," all these years I sang it but didn't know what i was singling. Thanks
ReplyDeleteLove and peace,
Farbed up is definitely going in my uber words dictionary!

From all of the comments, I think "farbed up" is a hit. I'd have to agree - and will be adopting it myself. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd you say this Fish and Brewis is good? Cause soaked bread with fish doesn't sound that appetizing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous photo! I want to be there to relax :)
ReplyDeleteI actually had figgy pudding once...don't recall if I liked it.

I adore the new F words and will add them to my vocabulary!
ReplyDeleteLOL...I once knew someone from the Maritimes who said "All farbed up"!!! Now I know what it means!
ReplyDeleteI also like farbed up but I thought, using context, that it meant constipated. Oh well. I am learning new vocabulary.
ReplyDeletethanks for the lesson in colloquialisms! I am definitely in the farbed up category.
ReplyDeleteVocab lesson is much appreciated. Farbed up will get some better usage after your post.
ReplyDeleteLiving in the tropics I have never experienced the "Fallish" feeling. I think it would be my favourite time of year.
ReplyDeleteOh, that's such a gorgeous photo! I feel so calm now after looking at that. Great F words!
ReplyDeleteFarbed up...I think I've just found my new catch phrase. Gorgeous picture.
ReplyDeleteYou got my Family Ties trivia right! It was indeed Nixon on Alex's lunchbox. Excellent work. ;)
Farbed up, a much better "F" word. I like it! (and I relate to it, well)
ReplyDeleteFarbed which I read as farbled, is a lovely word that I'm sure to adopt. the foggy photo is beautiful.
