O tempera, O melettes

I'll have to take the 4th on "tempora" (I thought it was the vocative) as if Cicero was addressing the Senate like it was the London paper and was made up of relatives of the man for all seasons).

But I'm sure you meant to write

O tempura, O melettes when ordering a high cholesterol breakfast, or addressing paintings and your muses.

Oh, by the way, keep niggling -- we're not niggardly with dispensing (or accepting) correction in the pursuit of truth or humor, both of which you have plenty of. Loved your cute near hendiadys.
