12/12/12
No matter where you are in the world, or in what order you write the date, we are all celebrating 12/12/12. Post an image of something that represents '12' to you. Post as many as you want to post.
Write in Spanish and English.
No sentences - 3 words or less.
If you put a # mark before your phrase, it will highlight it a bit larger.
I'll start with an easy one:
doce huevos - twelve eggs

Well, Aran, I am the queen of typos... don't try to usurp my grand postiion. ;o) You'd have to try pretty hard to beat me out. - katydew, Dec 13, 2012

Don't we all wish we had pristine copies of those 12 jewels. Aran, LP (elpee) stands for 'long-playing' as opposed to the old 45 rpm records. So, LP is written in letters. - katydew, Dec 13, 2012
mmmm katy in my language it's either LP or elpee and in Spanish elepé. Hope you understand my minor error. - Aranjuez12, Dec 13, 2012
