I love when I learn a new word through reading - or better yet, through editing, as with this one, and isn't it a beauty?
coquelicot: French for "poppy"; also used in English as a color name, the shade of red of wild corn poppies. In French it derives from "cry of the rooster," and is pronounced "KOHK-li-koh" - the sound a rooster makes. It was so named because the flower and the rooster's comb are a similar color.
Cinnamon thanks you all very much for the appreciation. Here he is, devouring the last of the parsley in the house.
For those of you in the know: behold and be envious! 💙 (Captioning: blue T shirt that says “Gusu Lan Clan, cultivator, Cloud Recesses” with cloud logo.) Gift from husband!

One of my movie peeves: when someone is outside in the snow wearing not nearly enough and yet not looking anywhere near cold enough.
It's been in the 30s F (-1 to 3.8 C) here, and when I go out I'm wearing multiple layers including long underwear, a hat, mittens, and ski boots, and I'm usually STILL kind of cold.
Pictured: Emmy Rossum as Christine in Phantom of the Opera, apparently reasonably comfortable in a low-cut short-sleeved gown and a skimpy loose cape in falling snow.
