I am a writer, teacher, & hopeless romantic with a penchant for falling in love with fictional characters. I adore cats, books, old black
& white movies, naps, peppermint tea, road trips, and the color
pink. I detest spiders, waking up early, and mushrooms. Favorite book(s) of the moment: The Name of the Wind. Favorite film(s) of the moment: Amelie. Favorite show(s) of the moment: How I Met Your Mother.
Yes, I know it's another picture of FOOD. But if you know me at all, you know I love food. Not to mention hot chocolate. And marshmallows. Especially heart-shaped ones.
P.S.) Why is it spelled marshmallow when we pronounce it marshmellow? These are things I ponder while drinking my hot chocolate with heart-shaped marshmellows marshmallows.
The marshmallow thing also got me thinking, and apparently, (according to the OED online lol) the British pronunciation is with an 'a' in mallows (as Hannahkin said), and with an 'e' for US. But I'm sure I don't always pronounce it as an 'a'. Maybe I'm just lazy ha. Or mellow :P

i pronounce the A in "mallows" instead of an e. just to be different. and also cause it's spelt that way ;)
