We celebrate a lot of birthday milestones in our lives. 16 you get your license, 18 you become an adult, 21, 30, 40, 60, all big ones. But imagine blowing out the candles for your 110th!
That’s exactly what Antoinette Davis from Newtown did yesterday. She was born on a leap year, February 29th 1911. So this year she celebrated on March 1st.
Our friends over at WFSB did a great feature on her with her great, great, grand-daughter!

If you’re doing “arm day” for your workout you might be wondering how the word “muscle” came about?
According to Merriam-Webster… when you bend your arm to flex your bicep that does it look like? According to the ancient Romans they thought it resembled a tiny rodent like shape. Which is why they named it “muscle” a word that comes from the Latin term musculus, which means “tiny mouse”.
Hilarious!

This is one of those family stories that proves the universe works in magical ways.
These two women here in Connecticut met at work eight years ago while they were both working at a bar in New Haven in 2013. They became best friends and bonded over the fact that they were both adopted. As time went on they realized they kind of looked alike. recently they started to do some research and after their DNA tests came back they found out they’re sisters!

It’s a lot!
I discovered that it takes approximately 540 peanuts to make one 12-ounce jar of peanut butter. This is according to the National Peanut Board (yes, this is a real thing that exists). Also, come to find out anything labeled “peanut butter” has to be at least 90% peanuts for it to officially be classified as peanut butter.
Delicious. Now I’m craving some.
