Today's Question(s):

Since we are still on "Grandpa-to-be Garlic Guy" Baby watch
What day do you think will be "The Day" !!
I have no idea... I'll leave that to doctors, I didn't even know Garlic Guy is going to be a grandpa! - Congratulations Garlic Guy!

Bonus Question:

How many of those fabric tote bags do you have hanging around your home ?
Fabric? That's strange, they didn't ask me "Paper, Plastic, or Fabric" the last time I went to the grocery store... - I have no idea what those are, and if I had any of them hanging around the house, shouldn't they be Toting around the house instead?

Do any have vacation destinations on them ?
Vacation destinations? Hmmm... I have plastic bags hanging around, with grocery store names on them, but I don't think grocery stores are good vacation destinations...

Extra Credit Question:

The "See The Sates Fairy" is stopping by to pick you up
What is one State you have never been to that you will be first on your list ?
What State would you like to revisit ?
(No "state of confusion" doesn't count lol see how well I know some of you )
LOL... Karla, you must be talking about Studedude and Aksarben.. - Too many states to choose from... I would pick the State of Alaska, I've never been there, and the Island of Kauai, in Hawaii to revisit. I've been to Hawaii, but I've never been on that island. If not, since this has to do with fairies, maybe I'll pick being stranded on Gilligan's island with Ginger and Marianne... in their younger days of course..

Just for Fun:
In Honor of Studes special Day
(scroll down to look, we will wait)
What is your favorite "I eat it because it is good, not because it is good for me" treat ?
LOL.. I'd better ask Studedude for advice on that one..

Anyone going to a Garage sale today ?
Nah, I don't need any garages, even though they have them on sale at Home Depot and Lowe's today...

Good morning Karla...

Since we are still on "Grandpa-to-be Garlic Guy" Baby watch

What day do you think will be "The Day" !! Not a clue...but, for Garlic Guy's sake, hopefully soon!

How many of those fabric tote bags do you have hanging around your home ? Only a couple...the only one that has any writing on it at all is one from Barnes and Noble.

What is one State you have never been to that you will be first on your list ? I would love to visit any state along the Atlantic Ocean in the upper part of the U.S.

What State would you like to revisit ? Wisconsin, preferably Manitowoc that is located along Lake Michigan

What is your favorite "I eat it because it is good, not because it is good for me" treat ? Ice Cream...preferably something with chocolate and peanut butter.

Anyone going to a Garage sale today ? No

1960 - "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polkadot Bikini" hits #1 This was a cute song by Brian Hyland.

1963 - Kingsmen release "Louie, Louie," radio stations label it obscene...I'm not sure why this was labeled obscene...I guess I didn't really listen to the words, but it sure was fun to dance to!

Happy Saturday everyone...

Um I would say 'Labor Day'??
I dont have a fabric tote bag, but do have a nylon mesh bag I needed to buy in Oklahoma City. You know how you fly somewhere and when you come back, not everything fits into your luggage?
Well, Ive driven through nearly all the states in long-haul trucking, but would go visit Georgia in a heartbeat!
I eat anything thats good, who cares if its good for me. And stay clear of diet or nonfat stuff.
I might browse through a couple of garage sales this morning just to look. Maybe.

Grand morning Karla & company! From some of the answers about Garlic Guy's grandbaby I'm wondering how many QODs actually read the other posters responses at all.

Since we are still on "Grandpa-to-be Garlic Guy" Baby watch

What day do you think will be "The Day" !!
Friday August 14th
Emily knows she has a good thing going inside mama right now.


How many of those fabric tote bags do you have hanging around your home ?
2~~1 for library books & 1 for bibles then 3 in the car for groceries
Do any have vacation destinations on them ?
I wish just so I could relive the memories.

What is one State you have never been to that you will be first on your list ?
Hawaii

What State would you like to revisit ?
Texas~~~I like some of those real cowboys down there.

What is your favorite "I eat it because it is good, not because it is good for me" treat ?
3" slice of fresh baked cheesecake I indulged with DD yesterday after shopping. We split it if that makes it better.

Anyone going to a Garage sale today ?
No & I wish somebody would come here to get one ready. We spend the first half of our lives acquiring things the last half sell them for pennies on the dollars.

Corn on the Cob, with lots of buttah.

elston just reminded me of something I had in Myrtle Beach this past October that can't be good for you, but is sooo good. DEEP FRIED CORN ON THE COB with buttah on the side...a once in a lifetime kind of treat!!

Bonus Question:

Babies come when they are ready and not one minute before.

How many of those fabric tote bags do you have hanging around your home? Less than 10 or maybe more than 10. I don't know.

Do any have vacation destinations on them? Mostly cosmetic and patriotic.

Extra Credit Question:

The "See The Sates Fairy" is stopping by to pick you up

What is one State you have never been to that will be first on your list? Idaho--There is a town and a road named after our family that I want to see. I think it may be a ghost town.

What is your favorite "I eat it because it is good, not because it is good for me" treat? Cherry Vanilla Ice Cream

Anyone going to a Garage sale today? Most of those are dead by this time of day. No. When I go to garage sales, I usually end up realizing I just bought someone else's junk because it is junk.
