I was just reading Momza's blog (hi Momza) and her post for August 2nd stuck in my head, I mean not the subject matter necessarily but one particular word caught my attention and I can't get it out of my head. Epiphany....epiphany...as in, I think I just had an Epiphany! What a great word! I keep saying it over and over in my head...ya know..like when you get a song stuck in your head. This is just a fun word to say and have. I also love the word Sizzix! It is a word that just rolls off your tongue.
I believe that some words were made up just because of the way pronouncing makes you feel. I also love the sound of chocolate ganache (and the taste) and to be perfectly honest, I may have misspelled this particular word, but no matter, I still like the way it sounds.
Words are fun and funny, they can smooth the roughest of waters or create a firestorm the likes you might see in a very dry summer lightning storm.
How about you, do you have a favorite word? Share!

It's not really a word. But, you know those funny hamsters on the Kia Soul commercial that say, "Doo Dah Dippity"? Well, I can't quit saying it. I love it. Doo Dah Dippity!
Oh GREAT Karen, now it is stuck in my head to. You are right it is addictive.

nuts, it should be too not to.
My favorite names are: Stan, Tara, David, Jon, McKay....and of course William, McKenna,Katelyn, Emma, Joshua,Ethan,Tyler,Ian,Brooklyn,CarterSylvia.....OH, you said words not names? Well then...I guess I would have to say incandescently, as in incandescently happy. It's such a great description, don't you think? (Hope I speled it rite)
Insouciance. That's my favorite word. I had to look it up the first time I read it in The Economist, and I haven't stopped using it since.

And I am going to start using the phrase "incandescently happy." ;)
