Just the facts, ma’am…

• I’ve joined the A to Z April Challenge 2016.  I’m in the mid-1500s on the list, should you care to find me.  There’s still time for any of you, my gentle readers, to join in.  Never let it be said that I didn’t invite you.

• I’ve never tried to do this challenge before.  When it comes to The Spectacled Bean, I tend to fly by the seat of my pants, so following a schedule, which this challenge requires, looks suspiciously like work to me.  But I’ll do my best to keep on track.

• My theme for this challenge will be FOOD: Talking The Talk.  I plan on sharing sayings, such as proverbs, idioms, or slang phrases, and a few quotes or product names as examples of how we talk about food, even when we’re not necessarily talking about food.

• I promise, as I go through the alphabet, that I will not be pedantic.  In fact, I imagine that this sort of challenge will allow me to flaunt my natural tendency toward flapdoodle and twaddle.  With a little snark thrown in for good measure.  And occasionally, a few facts.

… That is all.
