'Cos her name is Stephanie and when the stories were written it was fashionable to shorten such girlie names to the boy equivalent?

Too kind, Nick, too kind  eeek:

As we all know, saffron is derived from the stigmas of the crocus and a fragrant spice it is too. Last night I was given a bunch of Lilys by a neighbour off on holiday who didn't want them to go to waste. On the way to kitchen the phone rang and I placed them on the desk by the computer's keyboard... which, on returning, I found to be covered in Lily stigmas(?)

Why not use them in tonight's curry? ...  confused:

What is the plural of Lillies? A conundrum!

Still happy to demonstrate on baby making.

How do you know they were Lily's?

Not if there still in bud, surely  confused:

And come on, what about drying them out and using them as a spice  alien, what does your culinary expertise have to say about that ...   noooo: perhaps?
