Thanks to all those who shared their favorite recipes (all 54 of you!) for a chance to win a copy of The Farmgirl Connection™ Cookbook. It was “take your daughter to work day” last week, so …
This was too funny. MBA Jane pitched a tent for an upcoming episode of her “out there” merit badge. Guess who we found in the tent?
I don’t believe I’ve ever encountered such an all-inclusive word!
Gallimaufry (gal-li-maw’-free) n.
A hodgepodge, jumble; a mixture of diverse things. From the French galimafrée, “a stew, hash, ragout,” from galer, “to make merry,” plus “mafrer, “to eat heartily.”
This divine little word has been used to denote everything from a stew of leftover odds and ends from the kitchen, to a collage of art pieces or photographs, a collection of short stories, an assortment of musical pieces, a mismatched and motley crew of folks, and so on … you get the picture.
My crazy quilt closet is a gallimaufry of fabric. What does yours look like:)?
