Yesterday, St Patrick’s day, we went to an Irish bar and drank Guinness for the first time ever!! I’m 80 next month! Was that a bucket list item?

Handy to know. 😊
Never waffle on whether or not you want waffles.
‘Waffle’ (food) is from the Dutch ‘wafel.'
It's akin to the Old High German word for “honeycomb” & the Old English word meaning “to weave.”
‘Waffle’ (to flip-flop/waver) is from the obsolete ‘woff,’ meaning “to yelp.”

Word of the day is one I mention often. To have the ‘mubble-fubbles’, in the 16th century, was to experience a fit of despondency or low spirits - another name for the Sunday blues.
