That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for September 25, 2019

“Where’s the chain?”

At least it wasn’t the fingerbowl. From the days of having a canopy over the bed and a can-o-pee under it.

Little Claire, playing hide and seek with her pet goldfish. She always wins.

Jenny couldn’t stand the sight of porridge in the morning. It reminded her too much of the dimples on fat Aunt Emma’s upper arms and thighs.

Here we find Eleanor Rigby’s niece in the morning donning a face that she keeps in a bowl on the chair.

Just because you can see the future by water divination doesn’t mean you’re going to like what you see, Marigold.

“Mommy help, this water is stinging my face!”

Molly, there’s no use in crying over spilled milk

Wait til she opens her eyes, and sees the pit viper at her feet..

Don’t you hate it when you first see it and have something to say about it but then read the authors description/comment and realise that yours will be too similar?

Mom’s best idea in years was teaching her child to play peek-a-boo with a basin of clear water.

Oh, yeah!!? Well back in my day, we had to eat our oatmeal with our bare hands.

When it came to checking the temperature of porridge, Goldilocks was challenged.

Yer livin’ like kings up there/ wi ‘yer noses stuck up in the air/ such material wealth /can’t be good fer yer health/ havin’ BOTH a bowl AN’ a chair…

“I’m so sorry little birdie. I didn’t mean to hold you under for so long.”

Since Sukie was so easily amused, she could play peek-a-boo with the water bowl for hours.

Hugh Cameron (1835–1918). The Orchar Collection: Dundee Art Galleries and Museums (Dundee City Council). https://artuk.org/discover/artworks/the-toilet-91981. Nothing than that, I can’t find much about the painting itself, although of course there are various pages about the artist. The thing that intrigues me is, is she washing her face or is she crying? Is she washing her face because she’s been crying?

Young Galadrial, looking into her “mirror”.

Molly, a girl gifted with incredible foresight, diligently added to her Bowl Of Tears in anticipation of the day she would need them to combat Chronic Dry Eye.

Dear God, I’ve been a good girl today, please let there not be haggis here in my breakfast bowl in the morning. And if my lost ribbon turns up too, that’s two miracles for you!

Well, her face and hands are pretty clean. No telling about the rest of her!

due to the water being turned off, Agnes-sue cried enough to wash her face, for what ever good it did her.

the rest of the family always enjoyed watching molly, who was somewhat dim, playing peekaboo with the chamber pot…

Don’t step on the snake.
