Scrabulary Word of the Day #852 - 04/28/19 "LEG EFT"

My very Scrabulary adept son-in-law provided today's word.  My daughter was preparing breakfast for my son-in-law and asked him how many eggs he wanted.  He usually has 2 but agreed to 3 because:

No sense taking up space in the refrigerator with an egg carton containing just one egg.

Scrabulary Word of the Day #847 - 02/10/19 - "POWTENT"

POWTENT = POWERFUL + POTENT

Last Fall, my daughter and I shopped all the craft fairs in town.  We had a wonderful time!  There was so much creativity in the air and fragrances, too!  We stopped by a booth with handmade soaps and put our sniffers to work.  Two bars were particularly yummy smelling - one  bar was cherry and the other was ginger ale--together, they smelled like cherry 7-Up!  I took a whiff of a pine fragrance and said:

"Wow!  That's powtent!"

Some fragrances were strong and some were soft but all of them were delightful!

Wishing you a bubbly day,
