Tasty Tuesday -Week 13

Lucky 13's Tasty Tuesday theme is: Green


Perfect, considering that it is St. Patties Day. Are you wearing green? NO!?

*pinches you*


Today's entry contains a pop quiz (and the above mentioned pinch, of course!)

Have you figured it out? One more clue?

"___________________" was published in 1960 and became the fourth best selling English-language childrens' hardcover book of all time.[1][4] In 1999, the National Education Association conducted an online survey of children and teachers, seeking the 100 most popular children's books. On both the children's and the teachers' lists, it was ranked third.

Have you figured it out now? Yes? No! Okay. Okay. I'll share the answer. If you knew it without the hint, you get a gold star. Nay, a GREEN star, since that is today's theme.














Happy GREEN Day, everyone. It's my favorite color, after all.
It SHOULD be celebrated. :D
