learn some words, feed some people


This is great. At FreeRice.com you can quiz yourself on vocabulary and for every word you get right 10 grains of rice are donated to the United Nations World Food Program. It's fun, addicting, educational, and philanthropic. Check it out!

  1. Well said, my dear friend. And I really do love you more because you enjoyed this game so much! It was fun that I hit 48, even though I didn't end the game there. Maybe after a few tries... ;-) I am sure your word nerd friends will have fun with this.

  2. Ok I'll give it a try. I am so bored. Oh and I did start watching Pushing Daisy's--it's cute. I liked it. I still need to get that book though. I keep meaning too. I just never leave my house!

  6. I am taking the liberty to comment here again. ;-) Rachael, I am curious about your top score. :-) Autumn, the FAQs part of the site answers those questions. As Katrina said, the UN World Food Program gives the rice, and it is paid for by advertisers, who put up those little ads under the fun quiz.
