Mystery Monday – School Lunches

Today was Mystery Monday on the Afternoon Drive and we had a Mystery Question about school lunches.

A recent study (which you can find here) researched the amount of time students had to eat their school lunches, and how that impacted their food choices and the nutritional value they received. I asked you what the premium amount of time students needed to eat was, and Sarah from Lexington called in and correctly guessed 25 minutes.

I recapped the Fredericktown Tomato Show and told you all about the pictures from the 4 days of the Tomato Show, which you can find here.

Our Word of the Day was vaunted, an adjective meaning described as good or great, or often praised. You can read more on that here.

Have an awesome week!

We also told you the War Room went #1 in the box office for its second weekend! You can see the trailer and find out more information on the film over here.

Today was also Mystery Monday and we talked about a recent study on dating profiles. The study said 1/4th of men listed on their online dating profile that they would not a woman if she had ______, and we asked you to fill in the blank. Bobbi from Centerburg called in and correctly guessed that the answer was multiple cats.

We also recapped a story the Morning Thing did earlier today about Luna Moreland, a local young woman who is in the running to star in the newest American Girl Movie. You can vote for Luna by clicking here. You do have to create an account, but it’s free and takes approximately 3 seconds. The deadline to vote is noon tomorrow (Tuesday 9/8).

Our Word of the Day was tweep, a noun which simply means a person who uses Twitter. You can read more on that here.
