Do you own a dog? If yes, tell us a little about him/her. He is a good for nothing but laughs PITA. I've told some stories about our Puppy Of Mass Destruction. He chewed up everything that wasn't tied down, including, the tv cable, phone line, stereo wire, my travel pillow, various stuffed animals...oh the list goes on....BUT! He is one of funniest dogs we've ever had and has a heart of gold and for some reason loves us and allows us to stay. When DH was going thru chemo and radiation last year, Jarhead wouldn't leave his side. Stupid lovable mutt()
Extra Credit Question:
What items would you be sure to take with you when you go for a day in the sun at the beach? I'm not a beach person but a chair, a cooler, sunglasses, a cooler, sunscreen, a cooler, a hat, and a cooler.k:
Bonus Question:
Have you ever made ice cream at home? If yes, how did it turn out? I have and I love homemade ice cream! It was quite tasty!
Just for Fun:
Are you older or younger than Disneyland? (Check Today in History for date!) I just watched a documentary on Walt Disney so I actually knew this before seeing this...and I'm younger!! Whoohoo! Two days in a row I'm younger!
Do you own a dog? If yes, tell us a little about him/her. He is 80lbs of spoiled rotten Pit Bull mix, and he loves camping! He likes the kitties, but they just think he's big, loud, and smelly!
Extra Credit Question:
What items would you be sure to take with you when you go for a day in the sun at the beach? I'm a redhead, I stay out of direct sunlight!
Bonus Question: Have you ever made ice cream at home? If yes, how did it turn out? Yes! I just learned how to make very small batches (just enough for me and hubby) in a plastic baggie. It turned out really well, but you have to eat it all at one time. It gets hard as a rock if you put it in the freezer. Probably because it doesn't have all those chemical additives that commercially prepared ice cream contains.

Are you older or younger than Disneyland? (Check Today in History for date!): I'm definitely younger ... BTW: Orange County sure ain't rural now! The Disneyland Resort Area and surrounding communities is very urban now.... I definitely need to plan me a Disneyland day out soon as I have an annual pass .... Maybe Goofy will someday marry me ...
Do you own a dog? If yes, tell us a little about him/her. Just a single cat at the moment. The kids are finally in a position to keep their pets at their own homes. But the pet population in our household is always changing.
Extra Credit Question:
What items would you be sure to take with you when you go for a day in the sun at the beach? Something to sit on. My new Kindle. And Pierce Brosnan's phone number--always a very handy item to have. I'd take Pierce, himself, but he wouldn't like being considered an item.
Bonus Question:
Have you ever made ice cream at home? If yes, how did it turn out? Let's just say I won't be putting Ben and Jerry out of business....
Good morning everyone and welcome to QOTD for Tuesday, July 17th. The year is speeding by, so no time to waste …
