Wednesday Hodgepodge

1. Turkey-love it or leave it? White meat or dark? What’s your favorite thing to make using leftover turkey?

First, turkey: love it! Second: white meat. Third: favorite thing to make with leftover turkey? The mile high turkey/stuffing/mayo/cranberry sauce sandwich! Oh yeah, that is the best! Hubby likes his warm with gravy, but I just like mine straight!

2. Gotta burn off all those carbs the day after a holiday feast so which would you rather do-run a 10K or climb a mountain?

Don’t do any of those. I walk or watch other people. My comeuppance will be next Wednesday when I return full time to Weight Watchers and their program!

3. Do you feel like social networking has made your relationships better or worse? Explain.

Better. I find that I have found so many people that I had lost track of. Now I keep in touch with my family and friends pretty much daily. I love it.

4. How do you find and express gratitude for the hard things in your life?

Instead of dwelling on the hard things, I have chosen to celebrate them. This birthday I invited my family and friends and celebrated. I let them all know how very much they mean to me.

5. In the US, the day after Thanksgiving has been dubbed ‘Black Friday’. Is most of your holiday shopping done live and in person, or is it done more through the magic of the Internet? How do you feel about stores opening at midnight Thanksgiving night? Will you be out amongst the masses on Friday?

I think it is terrible that the stores are opening Thanksgiving night. I think it is also crazy that people have already camped out in front of them. I will probably spend one day in the mall, but mostly I shop online.

6. Speaking of the color black-which black item in your wardrobe would you say is your favorite?

My dress black pants. I love them! They are from Talbots and I have actually had them a while. But they are comfortable, and look beautiful on.

7. What do you appreciate about your life today?

That I have a wonderful relationship with my daughter, husband and granddaughter!

8. Insert your own random thought here.

I can hardly wait for the new coffee maker to arrive. I remember now how bad the old one Hubby used in his commuter pad is. The coffee tastes like crap this morning (Tuesday) and I really LOVE my coffee!
