Which of the following hobbies would you like to learn?
Scrap-booking?
Wood working? I would love to have the time, space, tools and a patient teacher to learn this. Gardening?
Knitting or crocheting?
Stamp or coin collecting?
Photography? And I would absolutely love to learn more about my camera, how to take better pictures with it, and particularly how to use programs like Photoshop to enhance the results. Our daughter's boyfriend is a wizard at this, and I am hoping that some day he'll have time to share some of his knowledge with me. Other _______? I'd love to learn jewelry making some day. There's a jewelry artist I know who does some of THE MOST unbelievable work, and I yearn to have the talent and skills that she does. I own a couple of pieces that she created, and some day if I can get a decent photo of them (see above!) I'll post it here.

How many different types of pins can be found in your home?
Hmm, let's see. Just off the top of my head, I can think of straight pins, dressmaker pins, safety pins, bobby pins, hair pins, and the pins that hold the wheelbarrow wheels in place. I'm sure there are some other varieties on the spouse's workbench.
French fries or Onion Rings?
It depends on where I'm eating. At Dotty Dumpling's Dowry, I'll go for the onion rings every time. There are other places where I'd rather have the French fries.
