Wacky Word Wednesday - Mickle

Image by Maggie Smith via freedigitalphotos.net

Mickle
Mickle rhymes with but is not like a pickle,
But could describe a big pile of nickles,
Or perhaps a gigantic pot of pickles,
Because a lot of something is called a mickle.

Every week I rhyme and define a new wacky word.
Come on over to indulge your inner nerd.
And, please let me know of any weird words you've heard.

      It might tickle if you wiggle IN a mickle of pickles. LOL. Didn't you learn anything? Mickle isn't a verb. :P

      Hmmm... hard to tell... what some people see as a mickle of kids, others see as only a trickle. :P

      Thanks for giving your opinion re wacky vs witty. :)

      I've got a mickle of ideas too! But no time to execute them... same pickle as you. :)

      You're welcome for the lesson! It is helping me learn more words too. :)

    I love pickles! I could have them at any hour!
    My husband likes them sweet but I like them sour!
