Hope y'all didn't eat too much candy on Halloween! When I was growing up, a special treat in the Trick or Treat bag was a home-made Mohjy Apple. For those of you who don't recognize the name, it is a Caramel-covered ripe, juicy apple. They were much better than the red candy apples at the fair, although I really don't think either one is dentist-approved.
The stats on Educational Synthesis are coming up roses! We went over 20,000 visits in the first month of compiling the stats, with Famous Americans leading the pack by a long stretch. Our pages have been viewed by 114 different countries and territories, some accessed via translation site. In the US, the states making the most use of our website are California, Virginia and New York.
