Wednesday Word of the Day



kef \keyf\, noun:

1. A state of drowsy contentment
2. Also, keef. a substance, especially a smoking preparation of hemp leaves, used to produce this state.

~LOL, so tomorrow, after my yummy turkey dinner, I'll experience a kef!  I wonder if I can sneak this word into the conversation around the dinner table? ;)~

Kef comes from the Arabic word kaif meaning “well-being or pleasure.”

  1. Oooh, another word I didn't know. I think Kaif would be a lovely name.

    Enjoy your kef after Thanksgiving dinner!

  2. Kaif would be a wonderful character name! At first I saw it as feminine, but looking at it further, it might fit a hero better... I'll be watching for him/her to make a possible appearance in Talbot's Peak! :)

    Enjoy yours as well, my dear!
