Weird But True: Honey Never Spoils

Word Worth Noting: Petrichor
Petrichor (noun) describes the pleasant, earthy scent that arises when rain hits dry soil. The word was coined in the 1960s, combining Greek roots “petra” (stone) and “ichor” (the fluid that flows in the veins of the gods). So next time it rains, enjoy the petrichor like a poet would.
