Saturday morning coffee

Say good morning to the handsome Diego Rodriguez Doig who also happens to be as effective at waking me up as a strong cup of coffee.

Furry Friday

Say hello to the very handsome Shomari Francis. You can see more of him on his Twitter account, @shomari_francis.

riddle, exercise for your brain

Each Friday morning I post a riddle to get you to think outside the box and exercise your brain. If you are stumped, share it with a friend or colleague and see if you can figure out the answer together. Leave your guess in the comment section.

This week’s riddle:

I am a thing that wishes are made of.
Two will vie, but only one gets a wish.
What am I?

Here is a hint, I am found at many Thanksgiving Dinner tables.

I’ll approve responses later in the day to allow people to respond without seeing any spoilers.
