Party Animals


I hadn’t truly realized how long it had been since I last blogged until about 5 (yes, 5 readers I was unaware of) told me I was really slacking. Ha. Well, today I am too busy to write anything, but have a fun exercise for all of you. I just completed this impromptu game with my co-workers and it is a nice, little brain buster.


Can you name all 18 animals found in animal crackers? Think the classic Barnum’s kind. Post your guesses in the comments section. I will update you all with the final answers. And no cheating! To kick this game off, I’m giving you the freebies posted above.
