Thought we’d do something to kick-start those brain cells.
It’s time for some pop culture trivia!
Come on – it will be fun. Bet you know at least one answer.
Everything focuses on the 80’s and 90’s.
Speaking of 80’s, Nicki Elson is hosting a blogfest on February 10 – I’ll Tumble 4 Ya – name your 80’s crush. (And I’ll tell you right now, it was NOT the Culture Club!!!!)
And we are looking for guest posts from past and coming participants over at the A to Z Challenge blog. Contact Lee or any of the co-hosts if you are interested.
