Caren Krutsinger Date: 10/31/2019 6:03:00 AM Alliteration looks easy, but for anyone who has ever done it, there is nothing effortless about it. This one seems effortless, and that is a talent in itself, my friend. Login to Reply

Andrea Dietrich Date: 10/27/2019 11:20:00 AM Wonderful, Michelle!! I like how you chose it based on October. Login to Reply Michelle Faulkner Date: 10/29/2019 3:36:00 PM I was thinking how orange this October is, and it came from that.

Rico Leffanta Date: 10/26/2019 2:31:00 PM I don't know about "overjoyed", but oaks are certainly overlooked in October in preference to their acorns. Aloha! Rico Login to Reply Michelle Faulkner Date: 10/29/2019 3:38:00 PM I guess you don't see too many oaks in Hawaii?

Pat Adams Date: 10/26/2019 9:43:00 AM Wow! That's amazing! I've never even heard of a Tautogram. I don't know if you noticed but all the words begin with an O!..........80) Login to Reply Michelle Faulkner Date: 10/29/2019 3:39:00 PM Gee, I had no idea %)
