a wordy world of wonderful

I have discovered a new word to absolutely adore. Well, it's not a new word, just a word I've never contemplated could bring so much enjoyment into my life, until yesterday. It's a wonderfully onomatopoeic word, which rolls off the tongue in a most satisfying way. As an aside, I just glanced to my left and the sky is full of beauty, with mountains of clouds and the sun peeking through a gap. I can't do it justice with words, nor with a photo, so let's get back to my new favourite word, ever! {or this week, at least.} The word is gloop. {/glu:p/} Say it with me, now. Gloop! Say it a little slower. Feel the movement of your mouth and lips, pay attention to your tongue; enjoy the sensation of it bouncing off the roof of your mouth. Put some emphasis on the L. gLoop! Isn't it satisfying? Gloop! I couldn't stop saying it. Such a stress reliever. It is possible that I spend far too much time with Childcare students, learning daft things to do with children, like making and playing with Gloop! Can you guess what we're going to make next week?
