Beautiful Christmas decorations!

Three of you got it right, starting with my blogless cousin, Mel: "I'd go for the Christmas ornament "; followed by Dyane: A Christmas ornament?; and Denise: "a round purple glass ornament".

Susan's comment, "THAT is an acid trip. Shame on you, L^2. And to think I gave that girl a blog award today!" and Robin's: "The fires of Mordor, viewed through a slightly purple haze (oh wait, that's the acid trip thing again...)" appealed to both my 70s hazy remembrances and my LOTR obsession!

jelly donut
mmmm, donut (say it like Homer Simpson!)

Almost all of you got it right, starting with Julie although she used the Aussie term for donut: "jam rolypoly or whatever you call it over there." Robin: A jelly doughnut - just in time for the last day of Hannukah too!; she and Susan both clued me in to the fact that jelly donuts are typical Hannukah fare...I had no idea!

L-Squared, my co-contributer, has provided the picture this week. So...

Rust on an old barrel!

First was Julie, with a very simple: "rust"

Everyone liked T's answer, tho: "I'm thinking it's that skin [picture from last week] before the lotion got rubbed in."

Lotion!

All but two of you knew what this was!

First was Laura: "wow, that looks good enough to eat...although I guess not since its obviously on skin and is some kind of lotion! Hmmm, this should be a scratch n' sniff blog entry!"

Susan made me laugh: "That little guy is one of Earth's oldest organisms. Nocturnal despite its light coloring, few have seen it and come away unaffected. You see, that is actually the world's greatest bastion of wisdom. The Dalai Lama seeks its counsel. And the dollop doles its counsel to the Dalai Lama, gladly. At last, its message can be heard."

as did Carl: "Isn't that a still frame from that famous scene in Something About Mary?"

L-Squared gives us a picture this week.
