My Husband "Subvet" says that when our first son "Sonshine" was born the sun rose on our world, when our second son "Gator" was born the sun laughed and when our daughter "Sugars" was born all the flowers bloomed. That says it all.

"Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass...
It's about learning how to dance in the rain."

thoughts are the seeds, the harvest can either be flowers or weeds. — William

Thesaurus Thursday, Answers, Winners, and Words

Just in case this is your first time by here on a Thesaurus Thursday, the "rules" of Thesaurus Thursday are as follows:

First and foremost, leave as many funny definitions for either word (or both) as you can think up in the comments!! The ones that make me laugh the hardest will be given the Silly Goose Award.

Last week's Silly Goose Winners are:

Jungle Mom said...
kaffeeklatsch, pronounced,'coffee clutch', Which is what you do each morning when gripping your first mug of coffee.

(can be seen each morning in Subvet's kitchen!)


Linda said..
kaon - Second cousin to Khan, a Romulan warrior who battled Captain Kirk in several Star Trek episodes!




Next, if you know (or think you know) the true definitions without looking them up then be sure and leave those in the comments too!! All definitions that are correct (or close enough for government work and Mighty Mom) will win the Smarty Pants Award!

Diane J knew kaffeeklatsch!



Official Definitions:
kaon - a meson with strangeness +1 and either positive or zero electric charge, or its antiparticle with strangeness -1 and either negative or zero electric charge. Symbol: K Also called K meson

Should anyone want to define that definition for me I'd sure appreciate it! :-)


kaffeeklatsch - a social gathering for informal conversation at which coffee is served.

In other words, any gathering at held at my house!



Now, our words for next week are.....
salmagundi

sain


Have fun now ya hear!!

Gee, Thanks

This came to me from Pinky



This lovely statue is called the "Arte y Pico" award which was created to be given to bloggers who inspire others with their creative energy and talents no matter whether it be in the form of writing, artwork, design, interesting material, or contributions to the blogger community. When a blogger receives this award it is considered a "special honor" and, once presented to you, it is to be passed on to at least 5 other bloggers who meet the criteria.



Well, there's a surprise!

I don't feel like I have any creative energy here lately but if you say so, I'll believe you! :-)

I'll have to ponder on who to give it too, when I have more time...HAHAHAHA

Oh Where, Oh Where, Oh Where is Shadow????

Sorry folks, I've been a bit busy between working days and chasing children during my off time.

We're going to move the computer out of Sugars' room so that should make it a little easier for both of us grown-ups to get online. :-)

Work is going very well. I'm going to skip T-T this week since I've already missed it. So you have another week to come up with silly definitions for kaon and kaffeeklatsch. Even if you've already put up a definition, feel free to put up several.

Till I'm able to post again, riddle me this:

Where is your favorite place to take pre-schoolers??
