1. Would you rather host a party or simply attend a party?
Oh I love giving parties! I love the preparation, the cooking, the fellowship! Yes, I love giving parties!
2. Tell us about the most memorable party you’ve been to.
I think last year’s 4th of July. I hosted the party and I had all four of Anneliese’s 10 week old puppies running around. It was so great!
3. What is one thing you hope for in the after-life?
I hope the be reunited with my daughter and have the time with her in Heaven that I did not have with her here on earth. I also hope that one can eat anything and everything and not gain weight!
4. What do you enjoy most about sunshine?
The warmth, the happiness, and the promise of another wonderful day!
5. When you attend a bridal/baby shower, do you prefer to bring your own gift or chip in with others to buy a larger gift?
I love to try to buy a unique gift. If it is a bridal shower, I try to find something handmade from my area, like pottery or glassware. Something special, that the bride and groom might not buy for themselves. For a baby shower I love to buy clothes in assorted sizes, diapers and toys and put it all in a decorated wicker laundry basket. This does, of course vary at times.
6. Would you rather have a FREE week of having your house cleaned or all of your meals cooked for you and your family?
Any one who knows me, knows I would take the free cleaning in a heart beat! Since I love to cook, but hate to clean, that makes perfect sense.
7. What song describes your mood today?
Mother Nature’s Son (daughter)
Born a poor young country boy–Mother Nature’s son
All day long I’m sitting singing songs for everyone.
Sit beside a mountain stream–see her waters rise
Listen to the pretty sound of music as she flies.
Find me in my field of grass–Mother Nature’s son
Swaying daises sing a lazy song beneath the sun.
Mother Nature’s son.
8. What is something you received for your own bridal shower/wedding that you still own or use? (If you are not married, feel free to sub a gift you received a long time ago.)
Hmmmm. First marriage ended in divorce, and I have nothing left from that. So nothing there. I got a great set of beer mugs for my second wedding present and I still have those and we use them occasionally because you can put them in the freezer and then have a real frosty brew!
9. Your favorite flavor of ice cream is?
Vanilla, with big chunks of dark chocolate, and dark chocolate syrup on top!
10. When was the last time you felt “tested?”
Tuesday morning when I had to drive my husbands big, standard shift truck to the repair shop! I did just fine, but that truck is a bear and a real challenge to drive!
11. “[Roasted Eggplant] is a food that once I start eating I find really hard to stop.”
12. “The mirror” is the best motivation for me to lose weight.
Oh how I can relate to some of these… I am thinking I might try this today as well… Maybe!
The mirror! Yes, me too! 🙂
I see a lot of differences between us (cooking rather than cleaning, preparing for a party), but I think we would complement each other.
Fun answers!
There was a huge crash in the night, I thought I was dreaming, but it was the cats knocking over the clean pans that I had left out on the counter! Naughty kittens, they aren’t allowed up there, so they shall have no pie! LOL! Love YOU, Mel
I love that song 🙂
