Desperadough

Created by: rombus

Pronunciation: des-per-ah-doh

Sentence: Betty had 92 batches of cookie dough in the freezer. She was so proud of her contribution to the Church Christmas Bazaar this year. They would bake some to sell and also sell dough there. She always came through with the most cookies and dough and was well known for her generousity. But this year, it was ruined....someone had unplugged the freezer while the basement remodeling was being done. Was it one of the remodelers? Was it her husband? She had worked herself into a desperation she had never before known, crying and wretching in despair and anger at the unkown person who had done this. In the distance, she heard some music and, wait, she heard the familiar voice of her husband. She strained to hear him as she fought back her tears......"Desperadough, won't you come to your senses".....

Etymology: This word is a blend of Desperate(of persons) dangerously reckless or violent as from urgency or despair; and the word Dough (Dough is a paste made out of any cereals (grains) or leguminous crops by mixing the flour with a small amount of water. This step is a precursor to making bread, pasta, noodles, pastry, cookies, and muffins.) Whew...

Angstony

Created by: silveryaspen

Pronunciation: angst uh nee

Sentence: Poor Tom Turkey. First of all, they were not out to get him a raw deal. They were out to "get him!" It was time to get a move on, before they could get a grip on him. Maybe if he could get across the creek, Tom Turkey might get ahead of them. With that in mind, he tried to make a fast get away. His pursuers decided to get down to it, and managed to get even with him. Quickly, hoping to get in on the act, one of his pursuers swung an axe. Tom did get a pain in the neck! Ordered to get if off his chest, feathers flew. Next he was forced to get the hang of it. But the ultimate pain of it all, came when poor Tom had to get cooking! Worst of all, he had no way to get back at them! Poor Tom, he suffered the angstony of it all!

Etymology: Angst and agony that make one ache for revenge!

Bendeavor

Created by: Nosila

Pronunciation: ben dev or

Sentence: It was in MacArthur Park that Tira Misu found her stollen cake. She had risen early to bake it and oventually she had cooled it enough to be able to frost it. It had been on the table, near the open window and then it was gone. Someone had made it a bendeavor and now she would have to start all over. Retrieving her plate in the rain, with the soggy mess of a cake, Sally spied Duncan Hines in the bush. He used to be sweet on her, sent her flours and she had once been fondant of him. But now,like eggs, she wanted to be separated from him and she just wanted to beat him until creamy, batter him and pound him until he was Devil's Food. After she had panned him, he became a sponge and trifled with her affections until she wanted to Bundt this fruitcake out of her life. Now the only way she could be rid of him was to hire a lawyer and have him file a torte against Duncan. May he rot in Hell, at 350 for eternity! Doesn't that take the cake, she thought,Hines-sight is so much clearer!

Etymology: Bend (turn from a straight course , fixed direction, or line of interest;spoil) & Endeavor (a purposeful or industrious undertaking (especially one that requires effort or boldness);earnest and conscientious activity intended to do or accomplish something )
