Too me it’s was one of those pacifier blanket combo things my cousins kids carry

I did understand what flowerbug meant though.

Binkie to me is a pacifier.

that's a numnum or a nummie.

what's to be embarrassed about? it's just slang and i don't expect everyone to understand it, but at the same time it gives some flavor to language to use words in other ways than the usual or even to make up words on the fly.

But @flowerbug .

In the UK, a pacifier is called a "dummy." (just been reading about them)

I didn't know that there was a combination thing . You see, I don't think that they were around when I was a kid ... Bro sucked his thumb . I remember that!

Next time I'm coming over to one of you helpful guy's or our lovely girls in private just so I don't embarrass myself again

Really interesting @flowerbug.

Slightly off subject...
There's an interesting post on YouTube that claims that if you put pressure either side if the thumb nail and then again pressure on the inside of your hand on fleshy part just near the thumb it can release the sinuses

Youngest DD, at 2yo, had a pair of Mickey Mouse sandals which She called, "Binkie Sandos." I think "binkie" is easier to say than combining a "b" and an "l".

It’s supposed to be warm and sunny through Sunday. With rain chances going up on Monday. I hope we get drenched so it puts out some of the wild fires.
