Musk and to me, baked rhubarb ... ignore this, while the nose is interesting and hard to pin down, all the action is in the mouth ... the label mentions this is a dry rosé, but there is still a hint of sweetness and a pleasing amount of flesh, texture and zippy acidity.

The title mentions two female roles common throughout the history of art: the idealized muse who inspires the artist, and the laboring drudge whose behind-the-scenes toil supports him (a "him" because of the male-oriented tradition to which Mullen is referring.)

Usually, easter egg refers to a hidden message or other secret that people sneak into something they make, like a goofy picture of the programmers in an obscure part of a computer program, or a movie director appearing in a brief cameo in his own film. I wouldn't say the Wordie stuff quite fits under that definition, but it's close enough. :-)
Check out this site for a huge collection of real easter eggs in all sorts of stuff. :-)

It is also the plural of the noun 'a mention'. 'The soldier had another mention in a despatch. He has now had 3 mentions.'
'A mention in a despatch' implies an unusually good report in the UK armed forces.
