October 15, 2011: All my life I've wakened every morning excited about what I'll experience & learn that day. I usually start the day by looking up a new-to-me fact, but definitely when I need a mental break from paperwork or practicing I briefly go looking for something new to learn. My blog is about anything I learn on any subject. I hope you will enjoy exploring this path with me.

In England and Scotland special cakes called furmety, carlings, and simnel cake have been made on Mothering Day. Carnation is the flower most commonly associated with Mother's Day in the U.S. For more information click here. What did you learn today?
