"Home Sweet Home."

Candy/sugar highs or lows (the blues) can strike at home, anytime.

Nonetheless, as the cliche goes, "There's no place like home." Sometimes its' sweet, and sometimes being at home gives you the blues ... like sugar can be sweet or not - and make you crash.

Still, home is "As Good As it Gets." We can be our best, or our worst. And get the best, or worst, treatment too ...

Stargazer

One who observes, looks for, gawks, or even tries to interact with a celebrity.
100% TRUE STORY: After trying repeatedly to semi-successfully engage in conversation with Frances Fisher (former lover of Clint Eastwood) at Whole Foods Market in Hollywood, a stargazer knew her label ... when Ms. Fisher said loudly, winking, to the cashier as the "stargazer" followed her in line: "What kind of lily is that (pointing to a bunch of lilies for sale at the register)?" The cashier loudly said in reply, winking back Ms. Fisher, while looking at the "stargazer" gawker ...

"It's a Stargazer."

She knew then, that she had overstepped her boundaries with the celebrity, and was a true Stargazer.

bundlecakes

An affectionate term for a toddler or baby in diapers.

"Bundle" came from a page and picture in the classic children's book, "Danny and the Dinosaur." There is a page where the dinosaur is carrying an older lady - who has her packages from shopping - across the street. His hands are cupped and she sits in them like one would a chair.

So, she is holding her bundles and the dinosaur is holding the lady's bundles. The dinosaur had asked if he could help her with her bundles. So, the double entendre is that her bundles are her backside, which for many reads caused roars of laughter with a toddler, who then inherited the name, "bundles" and also "bundlecakes."

Bundles is slang for bum, and cakes has double meaning for what a diaper is used to contain - but also for "cake," which a child sometimes is affectionately called: cake.

Spelt

Spelt is a complete sentence that means, "Put your seatbelt on now!"

Years of telling countless children, repetitively, to put their seatbelt, was condensed into a simple command, "Spelt!" "Spelt." or "Spelt it!"

Pain-free

To be in a state of not feeling overt pain. A state of anti-inflammation.

The name for a Schiff brand (trademark) joint supplement that was later pulled by the FDA - as it was too blatantly a health claim in the name of the product, later renamed.

In common useage now, the term can indicate any mode of feeling good or feeling a lack of pain ... be it physical, mental, emotional, etc.
After healing from her injuries, she was relieved to again be pain-free.
