I had heard of the brownie before (and most other such faerie types), but have always been fondest of the buckawn. And then of course there is the legendary Brownie Mary who hailed from San Francisco and was known for handing out special brownies to the sick and dying. She helped kickstart the medical marijuana movement which to this day is mainly centered around San Francisco, CA. She would definitely represent both meanings of the word 'brownie'. Thanks again for another interesting lesson, HFW.

It is a fine day to wake up to comment from you, could you be so kind and tell me where the phrase: ‘beauty and the beast’ originates.

Good day ‘dear lady’ good day!
