Good Morning--it came too fast

Today's Question(s):
There are curently five living generations in my (small-ish) family;

How many generations are currently living in your family? List them if you wish.
Three


Bonus Question(s):
One of the things on today's "Today Is" list is National Cheddar Fries Day. My Canadian friends will know what I'm talking about when I ask if you have ever had Poutine, or anything similar to it? Is there anywhere in your country where it is served, or would you have to travel far if you wanted some?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poutine
Never had it. I will check into Poutine when I go to Vancouver BC next week.



Just for Fun:
It's not Halloween.
Have you ever donned team colors for a sporting event, or a costume for an event that aligns with your interests (reenactments of medieval times, historic battles, comic book convention, etc.)? If so, what was the event, and what did you wear?


Today is:
Chinese Language Day We have one last Fortune Cookie on the table--I will celebrate with it!
International Cli-Fi Day
National Cheddar Fries Day
National Pot Smokers Day

Wishing you a super duper day!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poutinegotta go a piece for real poutine in the U.S. Or Canada, several variations - without real cheese curds- are nearer by though.

1.) Two aunts in their 80s
2.) Me, four sibs and oh..... Eleven cousins
3.) Sibs and I had eight kids.... Cousins..... nine kids that I can think of.
4.) I have four grandchildren & one sister also has four grandchildren...... Of my cousins, I think only two have grandchildren.

Not something I would order though.

I only know of my brother and his daughter which he threw away at birth. I've never met her nor have I talked to me brother in over a decade.

Thanks Pat you too. Well the fish pond is gone and the little dry stream is in it's place. John made the most beautiful little bridge and I had to find a place for it some where in the yard. We're off to look for river rock soon, if I can move. Every inch of my body hurts right now. That was a heck of a huge job hauling all of that dirt.

One, legally (myself), but I have a son who was adopted out and he has three sons and maybe they have children.

In my cousins' families two have seven and eight children apiece, and I totally lose track of how many grandchildren and grtgrands they have between them.
