Y is for Yeoman (I was in the U.S. Navy (last century). The job isn't complete without the paperwork being done. Our Yeoman was the person responsible for filling out the forms, and keeping personnel records straight. Mr. Kirkaby (YN1 - at the time), wherever you are, thank you for your competency and dedication).

B is for ... Burma Shave
The advertising signs promoting shaving and safe driving were a fixture on many rural American roads 1927-1963. But the company was bought by a conglomerate and the signs were taken down. In recent years replica signs have been erected along old US-66.

C is for Cranberry face (Bite into a cranberry and what do you get? Not a lot of juice, but strained facial contortions and your salivary glands bursting to try and counter the bitterness of that seemingly harmless fruit).

F is for Fermentation (Yes, that smell in the fridge is fermentation. The last Spring fridge cleaning was before COVID-19 dictated the agenda. It would be good in Mom's honor to clean the refrigerator).
