Today's Question(s): Have you ever participated in any kind of marathon or special cause bike/walk, etc? DH and I have done a couple 'Walks' in the past.
If so, what was the theme/cause? 1)Benefited local humane society 2) health related How far did you go? Don't remember but wasn't too far Did the weather participate? Time of year - not bad, nothing significant. Would you do it again? I'm more inclined to donate to the causes rather than physically attend.
Just for Fun: What is your favorite "novelty" song? Darn, nothing comes to mind.
Bonus Question: Are you a Klutz in the kitchen, or are you in your element? Not exactly a klutz, fumble sometimes when it comes to measurements and I don't have the correct tool on hand and have to guess. Tend to forget if I put the right amt in /the ingredient if I get distracted which doesn't take much. I really like baking though. Some foods are fun to prepare and eat, ie - Taco night I've tried making a few of the food items my Mom used to do but w/out the same recipe, it just doesn't taste quite the same.
