Thanks Tip of the Day
We have a lot to be thankful for. Even if we're not making all the cash we want, or not exactly where we want to be, things are good. I thought for today's tip, we should all post a comment for one thing we're thankful for!
Spelling Tip of the Day
I have always had a hard time spelling the word "hors d'oeuvres," for the times I've sent out party invites. And it's a pain in the tush to try and find it on M-W.com. So here's a good way to remember how to spell it:
HORSE (but no"E") + DOE+ UVRAYS (But spelled like it's pronounced by Julie Andrews in the D0-Re-Mi song on the Sound of Music...UV UV+RE...silent H...S)
Then remember there's an apostrophe after "D." Or, if you took French (I did not), apparently "oeuvres" means "works," if you can remember that (I'm not putting money on it, because I just used freetranslation.com). Here's a fun article on food spellings.

Comments
"I got a raise at work last week."
"You mean they put your chair up on blocks?"
and:
"I'm not going to sing in the choir this year."
"Are you revolting?"
"Some people think so, yes..."
And so it goes. It's like Statler and Waldorf from the Muppets, 24/7. Yay for complete silliness.
And yeah I am thankful for God, family, and friends.
Err... maybe "thankful" isnt the right word...
