Word of the Day!

Today I found

Foozle!

"foozle"

"to do anything awkwardly:

a stupid fellow;

a bungling stroke, as in golf."

Merry Christmas Eve!



Hope you all are enjoying the holidays...

of Christmas pixie elves and knomes the last week or two...

Gnome...

"Gnome"

"a fabulous, deformed, diminutive goblin, supposed to dwell in

the earth or to be the guardian spirit of miners;

a pithy or sententious saying"

Word of the Day!



So, I've been enjoying my Christmas pixie elves so much the last week or so,

and over the years my mom has called me an "imp" quite often

I was never really sure what it meant...

  I kinda knew it had something to do with the elves...

well, it's in our fabulous dictionary!

"imp"

"a young, little, or inferior devil; a hobgoblin; sprite; a pert or mischievous child."

hmmm...is all I have to say about that!

Word of the Day!

Word of the Day

today I found

"jay"

"a crow-like, chattering bird with handsome plumage;

a country bumpkin;

a greenhorn;

a poor actor."

I just had to look and sure enough both greenhorn and bumpkin

are in this delightful book...

Have a good night!
