I'd never thought to look it up before, but it does have a pretty interesting etymology. Its first use was in 1904, and similar words such as "fusspot" and "fussbox" were invented at around the same time. Why budget, though? It turns out that the original French meaning of "budget" is "little bag." Pretty cool.<br /><br />http://fussbudgets.weebly.com/fussbudget-defined.htmlPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00051715218609713561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38625371245795065.post-9665573113314116062011-12-25T02:53:04.028-05:002011-12-25T02:53:04.028-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00051715218609713561noreply@blogger.com
