I put a couple of chalkboards on the kitchen pantry door (2 artist canvas boards + chalkboard spraypaint + doublestick tape = cool look to the little pantry door!) and I have a word of the day on one (but am leaving it up a couple days so the kids can use it). I am loving your words! I put goad up there for today.

I had been using one of Trey's found words or a word from here: http://2day.sweetsearch.com/ but I like yours better!
