Shiver Me Timbers

Ahoy, mateys! It's Talk Like a Pirate Day...and it started as a bit of a joke between friends in the 1990s and apparently Dave Barry mentioned in in 2002 and people just started to run with it. So now it's more popular and lots of people observe it and this landlubber is jumping on ship to join in! 

Here are some pirate jokes to start you off right.

How did the pirate buy his ship so cheaply? Because he got it on sail.

Why did the pirate buy an eye patch? Because he couldn't afford an iPad.

Why couldn't the pirates play cards? Because the captain was standing on the deck.

And have I got some cute pirate stuff to share. This is a set of stamps from My Favorite Stamps.

And I love the sentiments in this Neat and Tangled set.

I'm a huge fan of Hannah Lynn's art and this Hidden Treasures pirate is a fun digi stamp that you could get today and start coloring right away!

If you're feeling like you need to celebrate with a fun treat, you could make these yummy goodies.

Or my favorite—cupcakes—would be easy to make today.

If you'd like to go with more healthy fun, you can make these with a little ribbon and a marker.

I'll leave you with a clip of my favorite film pirate from The Princess Bride.

Happy Wednesday, ya scurvy dogs!
