I didn't know the flower never wilts either!
HA! I'm no word queen - I feel far from it with my simple vocabulary, but I'll be better from all the words we're going to learn. I signed up for a couple of online dictionary word of the day e-mails and also saved some I found from pinterest for days when I already know the words they choose. |

Here's a prime example - I didn't know there was a word for this. I would have just said a wreath of flowers on her head.
anadem [ an-uh-dem ] noun
a wreath or garland of flowers worn on the head
"An anadem is a delicate wreath or garland of flowers worn on the head — think of it as nature's tiara. This poetic term has Greek roots and was first recorded in the late 1500s. It's a fitting word for spring!" |

Thanks for sharing Heather, you’re a wealth of knowledge lately. I love learning these little bits of info. |

xanthic [ zan-thik ] adjective
of or relating to a yellow or yellowish color
"Xanthic is a vivid adjective used to describe something yellow or yellowish. Its roots lie in a Greek word meaning "yellow" — think sunflowers, mustard, or goldfinches. It's a zesty splash of color for your vocab!" |

They say you must use a word 10-15 times to become familiar and part of your vocabulary. Some of these I would like to try that. |

Me too! I'm going to start a little notebook with fun words to remember.

And here I've just been saying "my belly is talking." This sounds way more sophisticated LOL! |

Hmmm…I wonder if my doctor knows that word, lol. If my tummy rumbles while I’m there, I’ll put my hands on my stomach and say “Oh my, borborygmus” hahaha |

 We have rain today, finally. After weeks of drought. Indeed, there is peace and I love the way it sounds, smells, moves the trees and dances on our pond! |
