Hello, members! Welcome to another fantastic Monday, where we kick off the week with positive vibes and exciting updates just for you. I (Jarred) hope you had a rejuvenating weekend and are ready to embrace the week ahead with enthusiasm!
Speaking of enthusiasm, I came across a fun forum post by one of our members @Suzanne rose. She posed a question that instantly sparked my curiosity and got me thinking about all the wonderful ways our members spend their time. Whether you're an avid gardener, a seasoned chef, a bookworm, or a master knitter, your hobbies play an essential role in keeping you engaged, inspired, and fulfilled. We can't wait to hear about your passions, talents, and hobbies that make your eyes sparkle with delight. So head over to the forum and share your own hobbies! Who knows, you might discover a new interest or connect with someone who shares your love for a particular activity!
Do you know what’s an example of a great hobby? Solving riddles! The first one for this week is:
We are little creatures; all of us have different features. One of us in glass is set; one of us you'll find in a jet. Another you may see in tin, and the fourth is boxed within. If the fifth you should pursue, it can never fly from you. What are we?
Tricky, right? I had a bit of a hard time with this one, but I’m sure you’ll all have this one in the bag pretty quickly. If you think you’ve got the correct answer, please proceed to our forum post! Those who manage to figure it out will be included in tomorrow’s shout-out. Enjoy, members!
