#HappyBirthday (to @TulsiGabbard AND? #DavidLetterman @Letterman and the #April12 #BirthCohort? partly listed here) on #NationalGrilledCheeseSandwichDay @NationalToday | @411Holidays @MySundayMass

I had a post that I rewrote everyday to replace 'yesterday's cohort' with 'today's cohort.' One day I asked myself, 'Why don't I just do an entry for every day (with that day's cohort & holidays & maybe its event-anniversaries)?'

That way I can go back & input new birthdays & events etc. Like today (National #Grilled-Cheese #Sandwich Day)

That holiday's explanation is linked through 'the main word' below; but I feel it's more important to understand that word better. And I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the bases of the words you're thinking-of ...

The word “Grilled” (Broiled on a #Grill) is built on ancient words that mean "to Turn, |Entwine" (building on that through ancient words that mean |Wickerwork, Small Griddle ... 'Grill' came to be used for "an |Informal Restaurant where Meat-|Dishes are made to order").

#Grilling #Grills #Grille 


The word “Sandwich” is the name of an area in #Kent (England), a name built on ancient words that mean "|Sandy Harbor or Trading Center" (the 'meat held by bread'-treat was invented by Sandwich's fourth earl John Montagu, who ate his meals in sandwich-form so he could stay at the gambling-table instead of getting up to have 'a real meal' 
(the word evolved from there to mean 'held Between two other (usually identical) things').
