What's in a name?

I sometimes wonder if I should change the name of my blog to something a little more dignified, witty or clever. And then I wonder if I'm being unacceptibly pretentious. At that point I realise that no-one but myself is paying attention. But then I look at the counter and think, well, *someone's* paying attention. Then I remind myself to come back to reality.

But in the end I have to ask: Does anyone give a damn what the thing is called? And do you care about yours?

ETA: I refer not to my username, but the blog name "Propping up a dodgy memory: it's for me to keep track of myself"

Food trials: The Pear

By the rules of the beige diet, canned, ripe, thickly peeled pears in sugar syrup are generally believed to be tolerable, in moderation. Pear flesh is low in salicylates; pear juice is made from whole pears and thus includes high-salicylate pear skin. Many many beige recipes use pears in one shape or another.

( Pears: J'accuse! )
