Wednesday Edition - August 20, 2025

Good morning Member

It’s midweek already! Just jumping in for Emerald today, and I’m glad we get to spend our Wednesday morning together. Some of you might be reading this while still in bed, and I’m curious: What’s one thing you always keep on your bedside table that you can never go without? Whatever it is, share it with us in the forum; we’d love to hear your little comforts.

Now, let’s solve yesterday’s riddle: I’m liquid and sour, I wrinkle your face, in pickles and dressings, I take my place. What am I?

The answer is vinegar! Big shout-out to our Riddle Masters who nailed it.

Ready for today’s challenge? Unscramble this: M A U C U V

Think you got it? Head to the forum and drop your guess. Get it correct and you’ll be included in tomorrow’s shout-out. Alright, grab your coffee (or tea) and let’s roll right into today’s stories—lots of good ones lined up for you. 😉
