Today's Questions:
Do you wash new clothes before you wear them?
Yes and I always have! Okay, I didn't wash really fancy clothes, but I don't buy fancy clothes anymore. (Also, many new clothes, if not all, have chemicals of some sort on them. There is a lot written on the subject; too much for me to reference... google.)

Something that goes in circles:
A dog when it is finding the right spot/position to lie down. Quite entertaining sometimes. I swear, my Siberian would circle 6-7 times for just one nap!

A car you wish you could drive again:
1964 Chevy Impala SS that my dad had when I was in HS.

His and Hers:
Ladies, how old were you when you started wearing makeup or did you?
Thirteen and wore it for forty years before I stopped. What a relief!!!


Foodie Qs:
What is or should be on your grocery list?
A lot of produce!

Describe one of your favorite casseroles:
My enchilada casserole, which is a hit with everyone I feed it to.


Thank you, bjh! Everyone have a good weekend and be safe!

Howdy, folks. Here are . . .


Today's Questions:
Do you wash new clothes before you wear them?
No not normally, I want to get one good wear out of it before I ruin it

Something that goes in circles:
toy trains on tracks

A car you wish you could drive again:
None - the only car I've ever really "loved" is the Jeep I have now, had it for 12 years. I just got it back on Thursday; it was in the shop for 8 days and I went crazy without my ride


His and Hers:
Ladies, how old were you when you started wearing makeup or did you?
I was pretty young, I had a 25 year battle with severe acne and I absolutely had to wear make-up, since 4th grade. It was horrible and honestly since I've gotten older and the acne is gone I don't even wear make-up anymore after being forced to wear it for so many years. It is wonderful not to have that awful problem any longer but I have the scars from it, even after having dermabrasion (god-awful procedure, never again) once. I feel for any young person who is struggling with acne.

Gents, how old were you when you started to shave?


Foodie Qs:
What is or should be on your grocery list?
It's very long right now - actually I'm going shopping after I get done here. Some things on my list: coffee, filters, creamer, cheese, potatoes, sandwich meat, etc. etc.

Describe one of your favorite casseroles:
Years ago I had some kind of breakfast casserole, it was very good. I think it had sausage, eggs and I don't know what else but I'm sure I could find the recipe online. I actually love casseroles so any kind will do.

Today's Questions:
Do you wash new clothes before you wear them?
For the most part yes. But if I've purchased new running shorts or shirts, I figure since I'm going to stink them up with sweat the first time, why waste a good wash.

Something that goes in circles:
A dog chasing its tail.

A car you wish you could drive again:
My 2007 Chrysler AWD 300C Hemi - in the shop right now.

His and Hers:
Ladies, how old were you when you started wearing makeup or did you?

Started to shave what?

Howdy, folks. Here are . . .


Today's Questions:
Do you wash new clothes before you wear them?

Usually not

Something that goes in circles:

The tires on my Jeep

A car you wish you could drive again:

My 67 Grand Prix. That oversized bucket of rust could really move. Other drivers never parked near me for fear of getting their car rusty. I am sure many drivers with their new fancy shiny muscle cars had to get mental therapy to get over being beat by a moving mound of rust. I rarely lost.


His and Hers:
Ladies, how old were you when you started wearing makeup or did you?

What...can't men also wear makeup? Not that I would ever consider wearing makeup but just saying...Oh wait a minute, I have worn makeup. However that was for a play I was in when in the 7th grade.

Gents, how old were you when you started to shave?

I think I was around 14.


Foodie Qs:
What is or should be on your grocery list?

Lobster, king crab, porterhouse steak, a gallon or two of ice cream, and of course, stinky cheese.

Describe one of your favorite casseroles:

That would be your basic tuna noodle casserole only use king crab instead of tuna

[/u]Do you wash new clothes before you wear them? rarely

Something that goes in circles: arguments online

A car you wish you could drive again:


His and Hers:
Ladies, how old were you when you started wearing makeup or did you? i never wore it consistently. The youngest I wore it when it wasn't for stage or Halloween probably was 9th or 10th grade. I had a friend who wore gobs of makeup as young as 9th grade.

Gents, how old were you when you started to shave? i didn't shave until I was 16 or 17. Wish I hadn't then - didn't need to. Should've got electrolysis before ever shaving and might never have had to shave again!


Foodie Qs:
What is or should be on your grocery list? nothing right now - I'm away

Describe one of your favorite casseroles: its been years but I'd love to have my college days specialty tuna noodle casserole again. Emphasis on noodle

Thanks and have a great weekend everyone!

Today's Questions:
Do you wash new clothes before you wear them?
Not usually
Something that goes in circles:
A car tire
A car you wish you could drive again:
I've only ever had one, so I can't really say.

His and Hers:
Ladies, how old were you when you started wearing makeup or did you?

Gents, how old were you when you started to shave?
16 or so. That's one thing that always gets me:

It's 2016. We live in an era of robots doing surgeries and 3D printing organs. Yet we still haven't invented a way to permanently remove facial hair that doesn't cost $5000+, hurt like the devil, and require many trips to the doctor's office.


Foodie Qs:
What is or should be on your grocery list?
N/A, I don't do the shopping in the house.
Describe one of your favorite casseroles:
Any one that's on someone else's plate!

Just for fun:
If you could be a part of a TV newscast which would you most like to present: (choose as many as you like)
-Headlines ? Sure
-Sports? Don't really watch, so I'd pass.
-Weather? That would be easy, sure. They just guess anyway it seems!
-Traffic? That could go on for hours, I'm not sure.
-Health? Pass on this one
-Consumer alerts? Sure
-Adopt a kid or pet? Pass
-Other?

I get the majority of my clothes from goodwill or eBay so yes, I'll wash them first.
Something that goes in circles..... Our washer.
If I could drive any car again I'd like it to be my Isuzu trooper, that was the one I miss the most.
Happy Saturday, have a good weekend!
