Big Word Wednesday-Week 6

Some days, the hamsters just rebel.  Today is one of those days.  I must have forgotten to feed them yesterday because every time I try to load a page, the little wheel keeps spinning, and spinning, and spinning….  I’ll teach them, though.  I’ll upgrade to gerbils and set the hamsters loose in the backyard; let them fight it out with the squirrels for third-of-an-acre supremacy.  Seriously, I mean, what the DELL is going on here?  I could call tech support, but then I’d have to watch 5 hours of The Simpsons just to get the right Calcutta dialect down.  I don’t have time for that.  Oh well, I’ll try.

Our words this week are tasty.  Tasty as in they could be the names of a meat sauce (salubrious) and a dessert topping (magniloquent) respectively.  “I’ll have the pork chops in salubrious sauce please.  Does that come with a salad?  And I’m saving room for that delicious looking carrot cake with magniloquent icing for dessert.”  OK, maybe food is a stretch, but they sound good! 

Our first word this week is salubrious-meaning favorable to or promoting health; healthful.  I still think it could give A-1 sauce a run for it’s money, but that’s just me.  Word number two is magniloquent-meaning speaking or expressed in a lofty or grandiose style; pompous; bombastic; boastful.  Kinda sounds like Kanye West.  But, if he wants to wear sunglasses that look like the back window louvre from a 1978 Trans Am, who am I to judge?  Remember to catch up on all of our words on the BWW page.  Now go out there and sound over-intelligent!
