I have actually used today’s word in reference to Mr. Armitage more than once.
Nosh: (verb) to snack or eat between meals; to snack on. (noun) a snack.
Nosh stems from the Yiddish word nashn which came from the German word meaning “to nibble.” It entered English in the 1950s.
Naturally, this being Guyday Friday, I would choose artwork featuring our favorite hot henchman to illustrate. I often find I want to nosh on that tempting long swan-like neck of Guy’s. I also think that laryngeal prominence I admire so much would make a great nosh. After all, it is called an Adam’s-apple, isn’t it? 😉

This is a really crazy WOTD, Angie! LOL!
It’s fun to bring all sorts of words to you. 😉
Noshable, perhaps, but I could make a whole meal of that man… repeatedly!
Well, I thought of a lot more to enjoy besides that neck, but I was trying to keep it PG. 😉
Then of course, in German we have the word “Naschkatze” – a person who loves to nibble. “Naschen” is the German version of “nashn”, Yiddish being based in part on Middle German. 😀
Oops, sorry, you said that anyway. Sorry, it has been an exhausting three days….

I hope you get some rest this weekend. And no need to apologize. 😀
I love watching Richard when he’s a naschkatze. 😀
My German is really rusty but a “cat nibble” ? Here, kitty, kitty…
My sister-in-law brought me back a box of German chocolates and the name translated to “cat’s tongue.” They looked like–cat’s tongues! LOL
They sell “cat’s tongue” chocolates here in Hungary too! I personally prefer the package itself to the choccies in the box. The box is decorated with photos of cute kitties. 🙂
That’s probably exactly the same product Pam brought me. I remember how cute the box was. There was also some delicious gingerbread I would love to have some more of–it was fantastic.
Angie, if you email me your address, I’ll send you some cat’s tongues and some of that gingerbread you like! 🙂
Oh, Judit, you are so sweet!
Thanks…:) Seriously, I would really like to send you something as a token of my gratitude for creating this wonderful blog! 🙂
I am really glad you are enjoying it, sweetie. 😀
I actually came across this word for the first time here on your very educational and infinitely entertaining blog, Angie! 🙂
So glad I was able to share something new with you, Judit. 😉
And such a beautiful neck it is and in the above picture we see it in all its glory!! Yuuummm!! We could feast our eyes on it all day!! 😀
He is very noshable. However, I enjoy seeing HIM nosh on a snack, like an apple or a biscuit or a donut…mmmm, yummy!
I love watching him eat. Prunes, apples, cookies, doughnuts–drinking is good, too. Ale, wine, beer, coffee–I get to watch his laryngeal prominence in motion, the pursing of those lovely lips–it’s all good.
Ya…he is soooo hot when he eats!!!
He’s so hot when he breathes. Sleeps. Exists. *sigh*
Sighing along with you, angie.
Bringing up the chorus *sigh*
🙂
He’s noshable all over… 😉
