Sure wasn't familiar with this word, and it makes me a little sad I don't fit the definition.

OTOH, I'm happy I'm not French!

You Are Watermelon

You are adaptable, popular, and very sweet. People always like to have you around. You are simple and genuine. You never need to pretend to be someone that you're not because your personality naturally shines. You are humble and kind. You don't make a big deal about who you are, and you don't look for attention. Your friends love and value you. Everyone knows a good time is in store when you are around.

Bad Spell Check!

A fellow blogger and friend of mine had an exchange the other day about coffee creamer on this post: Hot or Cold Dinks. When I was replying to his comment, I was trying to spell out "hellatious" - which means, at least to me - "hell like". I wasn't for sure how to spell it, having said it plenty of times in my life but I don't recall ever writing it out.

I noticed it was underlined, so I figured the dictionary had the proper spelling.  Uh, nope...that's not it.

I went with "heckuva" instead.
