Word of the Week

Most people don't realize that when you become a parent, you also become a creator of words.  Nicknames are very common for parents, but occasionally they bridge the gap and adapt themselves for everyday use.  Here's one I made up...a combination of Pookie and Precious..


pookalicious: adj. squishy and cute, babyish, squeazeable.
                               n. baby Allison


Did you know that you can adapt almost any song to use the word/name pookalicious instead of lyrics?  We consider it a challenge here.  Anyway...here are a few sample sentences to try out.

Lucinda teared up as she looked in the mirror; her bulging gut was anything but pookalicious.


"Ah, my Pookalicious, I just have to squeeze you and smooch your fat cheeks all over...(commence smooching...)".


"Did you see baby Titus?  He was absolutely pookalicious!"

  2. Question for Christine....were you repeating the word "pookalicious" to the macarena?? I don't have babies anymore. So I rather think my Beloved is pookalicious :-) Thanks for the new word!

  3. Now you've gone and done it, Linda. I'm going to have that going through my head for a week! It'll be funny, though.
