Things I'm Thankful for-----well maybe not bowling balls

 How do they make cheerios?

And zippers, nuts and nails

paper clips and white out,

bowling balls, and pails?

 

Who invented baggies?

And strainers full of holes

Who invented Tupperware

And all those crazy bowls?

 

Who came up with styrofoam?

And who invented kites?

How the heck did they come up

With Basic Menthol Lights?

 

I do not know the answer

One thing I know is true

I use all of these crazy things

Most every day, don't you?

do you realize you sound like Mom? She often questioned how things were made, etc. This is cute! Hmmm, I think I like the way your brain works, a little goofy, but lovable.
I wonder who thought of sisters..........Love ya! Connie

Anything within a finger tips reach. However, most things "invented" were come across by accident when in search of something else. Cute and enlightening write...

Be always safe,
