In the mornings, JJ & Eli sometimes watch this show called “Word World.” Its pretty cool. It teaches kids how to spell and read. One episode I saw was really cool. It was explaining how simply adding an “S” to most words will make it plural.

Like the word cookie becomes cookies when you simply add an “s” to it.

Thats a really neat concept for a kid to grasp.

Just add an “s” to it, and you go from having 1 of something to having many of that something.

Well, as I was thinking of that, I was reminded of how people in Fairdale do that with places. Its really cool.

For example, Kroger is often called Krogers. Or Meijer is often called Meijers. I have heard people add an “s” to all sorts of different places.  Big Os, Bass Pros, White Castles, Moby Dicks, and so on.

Its really cool and fun and local. Listen out for it.

No matter what the place….just add an “s” to it.
