Question of the Day
How are marshmallows made, and where did they come from?
Answer


Puzzle of the Day

A somber color I am found, And as to dirt I little show it; But if you fairly turn me round, Behold I am a poet. (What word fits the first clue, but when read backwards, fits the second?)

Answer


O sweet September rain!
I hear it fall upon the garden beds,
Freshening the blossoms which begin to wane.

–Mortimer Collins, English poet (1827–76)
