Afternoon all!

Today's Question(s):
What's the least amount of daily/nightly hours of sleep you can get by with?
I get migraines, and inadequate sleep is one of my triggers. If I get less than 6 hours of sleep a few days in a row, or several nights of broken sleep, I'll be decked for a whole day. So I'm going to say I need no less than 7 continuous hours a day to be functional.

Do you prefer a firmer or softer mattress?
Firmer. And none of that fluffy "pillow top" stuff!

What type bed, pillows, covers, etc. do you prefer for your best night's sleep?
Firm, king sized mattress, floppy pillow that I can wrap around my arm when its underneath it, smooth but not shiny sheets, and several layers of sheets and blankets for the weight

I should have been swaddled as an infant.


Bonus Section:
To get the best deal, do you compare grocery store price labels, like the cost per ounce:
-Often? But I may buy the higher priced item if, through experience, I find a significant difference in taste, texture, performance, etc.
-Occasionally?
-Almost never?
-Hunh?

Foodie Questions:
Easter candy has been in the stores a couple weeks so let's talk chocolate bunnies:
-Hollow or solid? Every year I get myself a single hollow bunny and throw it in the freezer. I'll crack it up, bit by bit, and it usually lasts until about Halloween!
-Do you eat the ears first or start elsewhere? Ears.
-Not all bunnies have those little candy eyes. Is that good or no? I don't like the texture of the little candy eyes. Biting into them gives me goose bumps! Like the chalky little marshmallows in cereal.

What flavor candy Easter bunny do you want:
-Cookies and Cream? Sounds good.
-Dark chocolate?
-Milk chocolate? First choice.
-Peanut butter? Pass.
-White chocolate?
-Other?

Just for fun:
Where is your home's breaker box or electric control panel?
Garage.

Where is the attic access, if any?
Closet.

Where are the steps to the basement or the hatch to the crawl space or is it a slab foundation?
We have a bi-level, so the steps go up to the main floor and down to the rec room right at the front door.

Pulled all-nighters many times. More than 72hrs bring usually some sort of visual hallucinations.

Do you prefer a firmer or softer mattress?

Very firm. I have a super-firm latex mattress, that is hard like a board.

What type bed, pillows, covers, etc. do you prefer for your best night's sleep?

I have all natural sleeping stuff starting with natural latex with wool topping, Summer and Winter down comforters/pillows, all cotton (flannel or frottee) duvets and covers. I like cold air at night.

Bonus Section:

I know the prices of products I buy regularly, but always check the labels of new products. Will compare price per oz/fl oz, but the buying factor is always the list of ingredients.

Easter candy has been in the stores a couple weeks so let's talk chocolate bunnies:
-Hollow or solid?
Doesn't matter as long it's dark chocolate.
-Do you eat the ears first or start elsewhere?
I start with the butt!

I am not overly concerned if they see me biting off their butt or not

What flavor candy Easter bunny do you want:
-Cookies and Cream?
-Dark chocolate?
-Milk chocolate?
-Peanut butter?
-White chocolate?
-Other?

Just for fun:
Where is your home's breaker box or electric control panel?
Outside the house, and inside in the garage.

Where is the attic access, if any?
No attic - vaulted ceiling.

Where are the steps to the basement or the hatch to the crawl space or is it a slab foundation?
Basements are not popular where I live now.

Today's Question(s):
What's the least amount of daily/nightly hours of sleep you can get by with?
I can get by on 5-6 and get through the day on adrenaline, but any less than that and I'm suffering.

Do you prefer a firmer or softer mattress?
Firmer, feels like I'm suffocating in a too soft bed. I almost asked if anyone knows their sleep
number, but figured most of us don't and it would just be a bunch of 'no' answers.


What type bed, pillows, covers, etc. do you prefer for your best night's sleep?
I like a medium firm king size with a wedge pillow for back sleeping, neck pillows for
side sleeping, standard pillows to support legs at times. A cover sheet in summer and
in winter a cover sheet with a comforter. I don't often like a heavy cover, even in winter. It's
there, but i might just use part of it unless it's really cold.


Bonus Section:
To get the best deal, do you compare grocery store price labels, like the cost per ounce:
-Often?
Looks like I'm one of the few checking oftne. At least it seems often. Maybe I'm
overestimating. And I swear I'm not a cheapskate. Generous to a fault in fact. But I'll
check between different sizes of the same thing sometimes. For instance, recently sandwich
bags looked like a better deal with about 100 at a sale price, but if you checked how much
you paid per bag, it was really more. The 200 count was still the better deal.


Foodie Questions:
Easter candy has been in the stores a couple weeks so let's talk chocolate bunnies:
-Hollow or solid?
The hollow ones are the ones we got as kids. These days I'm more likely to have a smaller, solid choc bunny if at all.
-Do you eat the ears first or start elsewhere?
I did as a kid for sure.
-Not all bunnies have those little candy eyes. Is that good or no?
I never liked the eyes. They're too hard to bite. They have to melt in your mouth. I don't miss them.

What flavor candy Easter bunny do you want:
-Cookies and Cream? Russell Stover brand white chocolate and cookies crumbles.
-Dark chocolate? Not big on dark.
-Milk chocolate? The traditional
-Peanut butter? Meh.
-White chocolate? I like.
-Other? Caramel?

Just for fun:
Where is your home's breaker box or electric control panel?
In the utility room next to the washing machine.

Where is the attic access, if any?
In the garage.

Where are the steps to the basement or
the hatch to the crawl space or is it a slab foundation?
Slab here. Growing up was in the closet floor of the bedroom my brothers and I shared.

Thanks, everyone. Happy weekend. Don't take any wooden shamrocks.
