A-Z Challenge 2025 - K is for Kerfuffle

#AtoZChallenge 2025 letter K

K is for Kerfuffle.  Another slightly different meaning word - "a commotion or fuss" rather than nonsense or waffle, although I bet a load of nonsense can often end up with a kerfuffle.

The grandchildren can cause quite a few kerfuffles when they get together and often need a referee.  Two of mine will be here when this posts so apologies if I take longer responding to comments.

Now on to the K countries:

  • Kazakhstan
  • Kenya
  • Kiribati
  • Kosovo
  • Kuwait
  • Kyrgyzstan

Although I don't officially have a theme  I wanted to have something linking my posts so I thought I'd see how many countries in the World I've visited or might visit.

Once again I haven't been to any of these but I could tell you roughly where they are.  (Well I know that Kiribati is somewhere over in Oceania near Australia ish.  Close enough?  Yep I though so too.

One of my DILs has also spent time in Kenya but probably not one of the saftest places to go to now.  I don't think I'll be visiting any of these in the near or distant future.

Hmm still at 9 out of 197 countries then - the list I'm working from can be found here.

And 11 out of 26 letters done.

  1. I've decided after reading your posts that some of my favorite words are the nonsense words : ) I've never been to any of the K countries, but the state of Kentucky is beautiful and lots to see with the horse farms, history, and all those distilleries. A fun spot to check out, especially if you like bourbon.

  2. Our Sam was deployed to Kenya for over a month during his deployment to Africa. He sent me photos of the monkeys that visited the Base. ;-)

  4. I have the same word for K. Kerfuffle is such a fun word. I can't pronounce any of the k countries except for Kenya. You're better with the map than I because I couldn't even tell you the general direction of each place.

    Have a lovely day.

  11. I have not visited any countries on your list. I hope the grandchildren did not cause a kerfuffle when they visited.

  12. I do love the word Kerfuffle!! It is even fun to say! I think all of those "K" countries are places to stay away from these days. Another A-Z post done!!
