1. Do you know how many hours cats sleep a day?

2. Or why anyone would hollow out a potato and put a piece of coal in it?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions, and you want to know, or if you vist love trivia, you should visit the Aviva Trivia Blog.

DH is a font of useless knowledge I mean trivia, so I’ll definitely be visiting the blog again so I can know something he doesn’t!

(Umm…that isn’t wrong of me, is it?)

I really enjoyed reading The History of The Jack-o-lantern. I don’t think I’ve ever heard that before.

Oh, and if you think you know the answers to the trivia questions - read on to make sure.
