Happy Saturday, dear members! I (Vella) am thrilled to bring you today’s edition of our newsletter—packed with brain teasers, laughter, and news, of course. How are you all doing today? I hope you have a lovely cup of something warm by your side. For me? It’s a fresh cup of chamomile tea with a splash of honey, and it smells magnificent. I usually start my Saturday by playing our Crossword game or Trivia game. They’re fun and fantastic ways to keep your mind in tip-top shape. Speaking of puzzles, let's reveal the answer to yesterday's riddle:
I can be long; I can be short. I can be grown, and I can be bought. I can be painted or left bare. I can be round or square. What am I?
The answer is fingernails! Hats off to everyone who got it correct! If you’re one of them, you’ll find a special shout-out at the end of this newsletter. Next up, we have our 'What Would The Grandkids Say' segment. Today's term is WYWH. WYWH stands for ‘Wish you were here’. Kids usually use this term in text messages when they miss someone. So, next time you miss someone dear, don't hesitate to tell them with a heartfelt ‘WYWH’.
