Good morning, members, and a very happy Thursday to all! How are you all today? We hope you’ve got a spring in your step as you enter another lovely day. Remember to pause, take a breath, and maybe treat yourself to a small slice of cake—because why not? Life is meant to be enjoyed, and cake definitely helps. 😉 Speaking of food, I’ve been wanting to try my hand at making desserts lately. So, I would love to hear your favourite recipes and tips! Share them with us on our forum here, and who knows, they might be featured in
our next newsletter. Now it’s time to dive into today’s newsletter! First, let’s look at the answer to yesterday’s riddle. The riddle goes:
I have a heart that never beats, I have a home, but I never sleep. I can take a man's house and build another, And I love to play games with my many brothers. I am a king among fools. Who am I?
The answer is The King of Hearts in a deck of cards! Were you able to crack it? If you did, then you get a shout-out! Keep reading, and you’ll find a shout-out waiting for you at the end of the newsletter.
Now, it’s time to share a Fascinating Fact. Did you know that a single cloud can weigh up to 500,000 kilograms? But why does it float if it’s so heavy? It turns out, clouds are composed of small water droplets that are too small to feel the effects of gravity!
