Speggity

Speggity is the at the top of the list. Speggity = spaghetti. I would have thought speggety would have been a better phonetic match for spaghetti. Now I have done that thing and said the word so many times, it has become meaningless.

A lovely little shopping list. 10 items written, most likely, by an older hand in a mixture of pen and pencil on a ring bound sheet of note paper.

  • Speggity
  • Sugar
  • Trash bags
  • Chips
  • Vitimins
  • Milk
  • Pills
  • Jam
  • Peanut butter
  • Butter

  1. Ah, an absolute essential edible to a health-conscious shopper…”Speggeti.” An item that may or not just be “speggeti” noodles alone or the intent to concoct a “speggeti” event. I’m surprised it wasn’t labeled as “Spasgetti” which is something you hear in many lunch rooms of younger spaghetti enthusiasts. I’d like to laugh more if it was just “sawce newdles.”
