Lil Bits...
I once had a cat I named 'lil bits', my family thought I had picked up some foul language and that it was short for "lil bitch". I distinctly remember holding up my thumb and pointer... Raising it to my eye, pinching so there was very little space to see though and I said "no... lil bits!"
My sisters didn't like lil bits. They freed her from out house sometime while we were in camp and I never saw her again. I'd like to believe that some kindly older woman or family found and kept lil bits as theirs.
I still use the phrase and gesture 'lil bits' but on rare occasion. There aren't many occasions to use it!
