Good morning everyone
Happy Sunday
I was having a conversation the other day and mentioned that it was National something or other and my friend said "well now thats something I never would of guessed"
So it got me to thinking(a dangerous thing) "I can't be the only one to do this ,soooo here it comes
Todays question:
Do you or have you ever shared any of the interesting tidbits of information you have read in the "? O' the day" with folks in "real life"
Bonus point Pop Quiz time !!!!!!
Thinking back to yesterdays "?"
Did you get the stuff done you had listed in the "what are you going to do today ?"
Today in history:
April 27, 1897 Grant's Tomb (famed of song and legend) dedicated
April 27, 1990 50th annual barbershop quartet singing convention held
so I guess that would mean
April 27, 1940 The first annual barbershop quartet sining convention was held
Word of the day : spall (spal) verb tr., intr.
To break into small pieces; to splinter.
noun
A chip or splinter, especially of stone.
Today is:
National Prime Rib Day
and
National Tell a story Day
it is also National Volunteer Week 4/27-5/3
All the time
It may be "hey did you know that today many years ago this happened
or
hey its National _____ food day !!!
I am not sure if I have ever made a point of using the word of the day
though that might be a fun ? o' the day challenge :P
for the bonus pop quiz
Yup !!! I got 144 cu ft of mulch off of the driveway and into the gardens
the yard mowed ww & edged
even did some bonus weeding
Though while weedwhacking the garden edge I kept hitting the stone border so I am surprised I didn't end up with any "spalls"
rofl I might have to ask the "what are you going to do today" ? again and list oh I don't know maybe Jewelry Shopping !!!!!! tee hee
Not much yesterday except for normal daily things. Did take pix of the 3 1/2 foot snowdrift at our backdoor and taught myself to download them and sent to family and friends.
National Prime Rib Day??? Now that's something I'd like to celebrate.
Do you or have you ever shared any of the interesting tidbits of information you have read in the "? O' the day" with folks in "real life"
Sure, it's fun to make people think I'm really smart!!! LOL
Word of the day is also fun and I really try to find a way to put it in a sentence and then people will either act like they know what I'm talking about or they will look at me funny and say... "WHAT!"
I was so busy yesterday I didn't get to answer the question of the day.
But I DIDN'T even come close to getting done what I need to get done.
Do you or have you ever shared any of the interesting tidbits of information you have read in the "? O' the day" with folks in "real life"
Absolutely. I'm a trivia lover and sometimes the little gems you share with us are great for conversation. For example, the fact that today is National Prime Rib Day will not be ignored by this carnivour!
Thinking back to yesterdays "?" Did you get the stuff done you had listed in the "what are you going to do today ?"
Well, thinking back is a challenge itself for some of us ... so I looked back and saw what I had listed. I did do a good deal of what needed to be done and will probably finish it up tomorrow. In New York we're expected a lot of rain tomorrow. Rather than plan anything outside for tomorrow, I'll finish up the work I started yesterday.
I wonder if any of the local restaurants are planning to celebrate National Prime Rib day? Mmmmm....
Yeah, in a small way I have learned some. Who hates what chores, who likes what desserts, etc. Its fun to know.
Instead of prime rib, can I substitute that for salmon filet meal from Charlies b-b-q Pit? I like beef but rarely eat it, as Im more of a chicken/fish type of girl, lol.
