Wordlover Wednesday: Lollygag


So the other day a bunch of my family got together to celebrate 
my Grandma's 75th birthday. At one point during the festivities
my six year old cousin called my other cousin a lollygagger. HA! 
This made me smile, as well as wonder where he learned that word from? Anywho, that is the story behind todays wordlover word.

lollygag (lah-li-gaeg)
verb- spend time aimlessly; idle: 
ex. he sends her to Arizona
every January to lollygag in the sun.
