Mitchell & Dent's Tittle Tattle

Oxfords not brogues. So. A gal turns to wiki to find out something seemingly simple like why an Oxford shoe is called an Oxford shoe, but now I’m more confused than ever. You can read all about how the lacing is closed, being stitched underneath a vamp and all, if you really want to. Here. Or, you can just visit Melissa‘s online and do a little field research of the most fabulous kind yourself. Lordie, just imagine what a wing-tip means then?

Unlike Madame Dent, I will not be celebrating a very special birthday tomorrow. But I will, however, partake in a slice of cake (or two). I only wish I could invite Miss Martha Stewart over with one of her Peppermint Fantasy or Jelly Bean Jewel Box Cakes. While I know the recipes are provided and I could very well attempt to make one myself, there would be no chance of having enough candy left to decorate with. I hope the pictures are enough for you Madame Dent?

Well done Custard Cream. In a biscuit-related poll, you’ve been named number one by the Brits. You must be mighty chuffed, but I bet your friend the Jammy Dodger is a bit miffed. It’s OK. He can be comforted by the Iced Gems, not to mention the Blackpool Rock and Spotted Dick. Not those Strawberries and Cream though, they’ve got tickets on themselves, all that time spent in the royal box at Wimbledon. Bet they wouldn’t help a biscuit when it’s down.
