Today's Take 'Em How You Like 'Em Question(s):
What do you have that you consider lucky? As in a lucky charm? I do have a horse shoe, though mostly because it's from a pony we had and not because I consider it lucky. I consider myself lucky in that my daughters and grands live close to me and I was lucky to love my work for so many years. I was thinking today as I watched lovely big snowflakes lazily falling from the sky that I am lucky to live where I do.
Tell us any element(s)? Cobalt, Copper Are you only looking for chemical elements? Fire, Water, Earth, Air are Nature Elements. I am in my element in the classroom.
Any metal object(s) you used recently, and what kind of metal(s) if you know? I used a cookie sheet today. I would guess it's made of aluminum.
Name any mythological figure(s) : Pegasus, Medusa
Foodie Question(s): Do you take advantage of restaurants' early bird specials? Have done.
