Catching up…

tasty-tom-turkey-hunt-2016-01Some internet issues brought yesterday’s blog crashing down, so we’ll get two days worth in today…

Remember that the Totally Tasty Tom Turkey Hunt continues through Friday morning, when we draw FIVE winners of a 14-16 pound turkey from Smithhisler Meats. Listen for that turkey gobble and be the fifth caller to get registered!

We got a winner for our Name That Tune stumper from last week – Josiah correctly guessed that our song was “Stay Strong” by Newsboys.  Also Krissta from Mount Vernon was our winner in Song Poetry, guessing Natalie Grant’s “King of the World.”

Our Monday Word of the Day was hoke, a verb meaning to give a contrived, falsely impressive, or hokey quality to something — usually used with up, like “hoke it up.”
Today’s Word was manna, a noun meaning: any sudden or unexpected help, advantage, or aid to success, also the food from heaven provided to the Israelites in Exodus.

Thanks for listening!

Mystery Monday – 11/9

Today was Mystery Monday on the Afternoon Drive!

It was also the kickoff for the 2015 Totally Tasty Tom Turkey Hunt! You can read all about that here. Congratulations to Sam and Bernelle who got registered today on the show!

Since it was the first day for the Turkey Hunt, I was in a Thanksgiving mood and decided to have a holiday-related Mystery Monday question. I found this poll, that showed some of the favorite and least favorite Thanksgiving side dishes. I asked for you to name 2 of the 3 least liked items, and Teresa from Fredericktown called in and correctly guessed cranberries and sweet potatoes. The other item in the top 3 was vegetables.

I also talked about WinterJam 2016, which you can read all about over here.

Plus, click here for all the information on Operation Christmas Child, which is taking place next week.

Have an awesome week!
