Welcome to Birth of a Notion a blog that has a smattering of life but mostly a blog about the art of all things Letter writing. Fountain pens, Fine stationery (oh my favorite) and things pen pal related. You can check the blog wrap and the section that says We Support for Letter writing clubs and more information on all things letter.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." ~Thomas Jefferson Declaration of Independence 1776

Saturday Six #13



1. Without looking it up, how many of the following could you correctly name off the top of your head: your state slogan, your state tree, your state flower, your state bird, your state dog, your state song, your state dance, and your state beverage? I think I can name a fair amount of them as I did a paper on things like that although it was yeaaaaarrssss ago. State Slogan is Explore Minnesota, Tree is Norway Pine , Flower is Lady Slipper, Bird is the Loon, State song is Hail Minnesot, Beverage is MILK! I had to look up Dance, Dog. We do not have a state dog and we don't have a state dance. although according to one page Square dancing was proposed as the state dance in 1992.

2. Suppose you started your own state: based on your personality, what would you want for your new state’s slogan? My own state slogan? Where History is Remembered.

3. If you had to choose one kind of animal to represent your state — mammal, fish, reptile, insect…but just one — which would you choose and which specific breed would you select?
Horse, Arabian for the breed because I find that the most noble of the horses and it is my prefference :)

4. What would be the pick for your state’s official drink? PEPSI.

5. Take the quiz: What State Are You?




You Are California



You are cutting edge and diverse. People may call you flaky, but you can't help that you have a lot going on.

In general, you are friendly and laid back. There's nothing you like better than a quiet afternoon at the beach.



You are socially progressive and open minded. Anyone is welcome into your circle of friends.

You may be a bit image conscious, but you understand that appearances matter!


THIS was very odd to me, and I have never even been to CA.

6. Go to Wikipedia and look up that state: what is its slogan and how good of a fit would it be for your new state? California's Slogan is Eureka...and I don't think it would suit my state. *lol*
