Totally Weird and Wonderful Words | Erin McKean

It‘s raining outside, I‘ve got hot chocolate, the blanket right out of the dryer, and a lovely book. It‘s a perfect afternoon.

Do I have 10 different rain related words saved in my notes app? No comment.

AnnCrystal While not my favorite adaptation, I found it interesting how the movie Dracula 2000 connected Dracula to Judas instead of Vlad II Dracul.

Although, much preferred the Dracula Untold movie, which was a clever masterpiece that combined the History with the Legend. Wish they had made a novelisation. 🥀🦇💝. 3h

CatLass007 Good morning! 15h

CBee @CatLass007 good morning! I grew up on canned peas but once I tried fresh, I never wanted canned again! Same with asparagus! 15h

CatLass007 My Mom used to tell a story that I don‘t remember happening but it sounds like me. When I was in daycare we couldn‘t get up from the lunch table until we cleaned our plates. When Mom came to pick me up after she got off work, I was still sitting at the table eating my peas. With. My. Knife. One. Pea. At. A. Time.🤣 15h

Bookwormjillk These are fresh in my garden now and my daughter can‘t get enough. I‘ll have to let her know. 14h

TheSpineView Thanks for the tag! BTW, I love snow 🫛 💚 13h

TheBookHippie I love sugar snap peas!!! Yummmm. 12h

Amiable I like snow peas, but my tongue is completely and utterly unable to pronounce French words! 😄 12h

dabbe @Amiable Try this: mahnge-TOO (don't mind if I do!) 10h

dabbe The only way I can eat frozen or canned peas is in a salad with lots of dressing. 🤣 9h

willaful @Bookwormjillk I grow them too and can't wait. I eat them raw! 8h

BookmarkTavern Yum! I love sugar peas! 5h

CBee @CatLass007 wow, that is some serious dedication to peas 😂😂 1h

CBee @Bookwormjillk yum! 1h

CBee @Amiable ha! I do okay. My husband says I pronounce German fairly well which is a major feat 😂 1h

CBee @dabbe perfect 🤩 1h

Amiable @CBee German is way easier for me — my husband jokes that I inherited the “German gargle” from my ancestors because I can pronounce those harsh sounds much better than the French ones! 😄 38m

CatLass007 More like serious dedication to no peas.😝😂😂 37m

CBee @Amiable ha! The German gargle 😂😂 I‘ll have to tell hubby this 30m

CBee @CatLass007 true. I think that was what I meant actually 😂🤪 30m

CatLass007 I figured. It‘s weird. I like split pea soup. But it has flavor and canned peas just don‘t. 20m
