Small Hare's new word

[hartleyhare]

A 'tishy' is something that is small and good to eat. Strawberries and grapes are tishies, and so (curiously, for such a little boy) are Bran Flakes, his current favourite breakfast. It took us a while to work out what a tishy actually was, but clearly there is a need for such a word (or there is as far as Small Hare is concerned

That is so lovely. Maybe I'll introduce it to Item as well.
How is his talking coming along?

He can almost count to five, now, too.

Thou shall't have a tishy
On a little dishy...

Hey, he's tasting the natural sugars in the bran flakes, which as you know are the breakdown products of the complex starches. Soy ou are doing a good job with keeping his palate unspoiled, GO YOU!!

"Tishy". I really like that word. Of course there's a need for it, much more efficient than saying "small-and-good-to-eat Thing" and more accurate than "tasty", which conveys nothing of the quidity of the "tishy".

Tishy.
Tishy.

Yes, definitely, tishy.

Do green olives count as tishies? If they do I'll be having a little bowl of tishies with a glass of chilled white wine this evening :-)

Never got to grips with Bran Flakes personally - All Bran I like, but Bran Flakes as a tishy I find slightly pishy. Boom Boom!
