A Rose by any other name.....

   Here's one of those unusual and generally
unknown  'holidays' we've all been waiting
for!
   October 4th is National Frappe Day!
   OK....I had to look this one up!
   Frappe, which can be pronounced as
either FRAP, or FRA-PEY, has several
definitions.
   One is "a fruit juice mixture frozen to a
mush."
   One is "an after dinner drink consisting
of a liqueur poured over cracked or
shaved ice."
   It's also a term that applies to ballet.
   But the most basic definition of this
French term is used to describe......
a Milkshake!
    Which ever you choose to use, except
for ballet, this is the day you're suppose
to pour one of these tasty beverages for
yourself....and enjoy it!
    But to avoid putting your foot, or
ballet slipper, in your mouth,  I think I'd
 just use the term "Milkshake"
if you're ordering at your local dairy bar.
    I just can't picture myself  asking for
a Vanilla Frapee with Malt.
    But it does sound like a day worth
celebrating!
   Hope your Frapee is extra thick and
that all your NEWS is good!
