Jocose is a word I rarely use. I wonder why not? I do appreciate humour.
National Daughter's Day? I didn't know there was such a thing.

I knew you could use wax paper to make a metal playground slide faster, but didn't know about the other uses.

I've heard the word jocose, but very rarely. It's not one I would really use.

Never heard of jocose. Learned something new. Also not tried wax paper except to get up candle wax spills. Xo

Jocose? I have no idea. My Funkin' Wagnalls tells me it means playful, jocular, witty and facetious. Sorry to the environment but wax paper doesn't cut it for me and I want chemicals, strong chemicals for cleaning.

I have a friend who is exceptionally jocose, always ready with a witty anecdote or two, perhaps unusual in a way because he is a serious scientist by profession.

I don't use it either, but I may have to start. My daughter pointed out that there was such a holiday:) LOL

Sandra Cox said...

I'd forgotten about slicking up the slides:)

Sandra Cox said...

Indeed:) Sending you hugs.

I'd probably use cheerful instead of jocose since I had never heard of jocose before. You taught me a new word. I've never heard of cleaning things with wax paper. A lot of the cleaning "hacks" I see online aren't very effective.

Love,
Janie

It's not used very often, is it?

Sandra Cox said...

Does it work pretty well for candle wax? xo
