1. Your favorite chocolate treat?
Chocolate Peppermint Bark. It’s only available at Christmas, but oh, it is so yummy. Truth be told though, I’ll eat anything chocolate!
2. What more than anything else makes you feel loved?
It’s the very little things. Hugs, cuddles, smiles, the look in someones eyes, etc.
3. Cherries or blueberries?
Since we have three Cherry trees, I’ll say Cherry, but….our friend has Blueberries, and we go over and pick like crazy, and I make things with those too.
4. What is the one trait you most want the leader of your country to possess?
Integrity. Definition: Integrity is a concept of consistency of actions, values, methods, measures, principles, expectations, and outcomes. In ethics, integrity is regarded as the honesty and truthfulness of one’s actions. The word “integrity” stems from the Latin adjective integer (whole, complete).[2] In this context, integrity is the inner sense of “wholeness” deriving from qualities such as honesty and consistency of character.
5. Are you a saver or a spender?
I used to be a spender. I really love to shop. Now, I have learned that it’s best to be a saver.
6. If you gave a party for all of your friends would they already know each other?
Not at all. I have friends far and wide. I think they all know of each other, but they haven’t met.
7. Are you interested in antiques?
Only family ones. For instance this Noah’s Ark came from Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany, with my grandfather, when he emigrated to this country. He was just 9 years old at the time. I love this little ark, and the memories of him that it evokes.

For all of you who have been following my blog friend, Joanne’s progress since her stroke, there are great things to report. She is eating pop-cycles, and using an Ipad to communicate with everyone! If you go to this post you can read and see her progress. This post was written by Joanne’s sister complete with some of the most beautiful pictures! Her sister and husband are in a few of them, and Joanne’s beautiful hands! So go HERE and read and see how God really does answer our prayers.
I have been following Joanne´s process. It´s amazing how God is healing her.
I´m a spender so I guess if you can change I can too, right? Hopefully….
Joanne’s story is just amazing…I have worked with stroke patients and her remarkable recovery is not always how it goes.
I am in love with that Noah’s Ark-so special!
That Noah’s Ark is probably worth more than the Owl Globe, LOL! I love all those things so much and not because of their worth, but because they mean something to each of us!! Love YOU, Mel
I love that Ark! Amazingly adorable. I love things like that from the family!

That is wonderful news with Joanne. I loved reading your answers. I am in love with that Noah’s Ark, it’s priceless. Have a wonderful weekend.
One of my forever-memories is of my grandfather going out to pick wild blueberries and my grandmother baking and sharing a pie after he brought them home- by far the best pies I have ever, ever had.
