1. Share something you loved about your Christmas Day.
As the snow gently fell, Hubby and I had a typical German breakfast. We exchanged a few gifts and later on enjoyed Prime Rib! Total yumminess!!!
2. You get to put five items in a time capsule to be opened in 100 years, what items would you choose and why?
1. The complete DVD series of Julia Child “The French Chef”, as well as the DVD “Julie and Julia”.
2. A copy of “9/11” The film is the “accidental documentary” made by French brothers and film makers, Gedeon and Jules Naudet.
3. Pictures of my daughter and grandchild. My gifts to the world!
4. The Harry Potter series of books and films.
5. The Bible.
3. What do you like on a cracker?
Oh, goodness, almost anything! I guess, mostly cheese.
4. Do you make resolutions at the start of a new year? How’d that work out for you this past year?
Four years ago, I made a resolution to go to Weight Watchers and lose weight. This year, I want to step up my program with them and drop those ten pounds that have crept on.
5. What’s a song or song lyric you’ll associate with 2011?
I am old, therefore, I think of things that were popular in 1960’s, 70’s and 80’s as being contemporary! Yes, I am an oldies girl! But I like Taylor Swift and “Life is a Fairytale”!
Time slows down whenever you’re around
Yeah yeah
But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standing there
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
6. How will you ring in the new year?
Champagne, canapes, and pajamas!
7. What is something you look forward to in 2012?
My first grandchild! Oh, how much I am looking forward to that precious new life coming into the world!
8. Insert your own random thought here.
As the days of 2011 wind down, I look back to the many things in the year, that I am thankful for. I have come to understand, that in this life, the people you love, good health and a happy home is what are really important.
Happy Wednesday Everyone!!!
