Rejuvenotions
Created by: silveryaspen
Pronunciation: re joo ven no shuns
Sentence: Despite, faithfully using the dreamcreams and miracalotions, after age sixty, seeing my aging face in a mirror, causes me to wrinkcoil away from the image. They do not work. But hope springs eternal, so we women never give up on our silly rejuvenotions!
Etymology: REJUVENATIONS by POTIONS and LOTIONS are unrealistic NOTIONS = REJUVENOTIONS. The last two syllables in the pronunciation could be part of the etymology as well ... for we do it in hopes of 'NO SHUNS'.
