Dictionary Word

Hi again!
If nobody posts anything while I'm typing this, I'm pretty sure this will be the 70th post on this blog. Today I was reading through the dictionary(which is quite interesting) and found this cool word.

Periwinkle - any of a genus (Littorina) of littoral edible marine snails.

In case you didn't know, littoral means growing on or near the shore, especially that of the sea. So periwinkle is a color and a kind of snail! I never knew that but maybe you did. Well that's everything!

P.S. Happy December! :)
