Today's Question stopped to smell the roses -- and other flowers.
*ah-choo!*
Today's Random Questions: What kinds of flowers do you like? Dahlias, Oriental lilies, bougainvilleas, roses... Have you worked a hula hoop and if so, were you any good at it? Only as a kid and I was dang good at it.
If you ever lived in a home with a basement or crawl space, what is/was down there? Only my current house, and it's an unfinished basement used to storage and some of my hubby's stuff.
What's under your current home? Above. Did it again.
Where do you get a senior or other discount? Sometimes in restaurants, if I want something off its menu. I'll take a hotel discount anytime!
Foodie Questions: What do you like to eat or drink with honey? Do not like honey in drinks. But I love to drizzle it over cornbread or biscuits. For sore throat I'll drink tea but eat a tbsp. of honey afterwards to coat the throat.
Have you ever gotten stuck in a tree trying to get honey? Nope.
For me nothing ruins a sandwich like mayo. Now it's your turn: ---> Nothing ruins a stew like too much celery.
What foods do you remember from the good ol' days, before so many dietary warnings? Hmmm. Potatoes fried in bacon fat and my mother did it well.
Just for fun: The other day while doing some messy chores at home I wore an old tee shirt with a beat up decal and a stain on it. Later while running an errand after a lunch out I looked down and saw I was still wearing the old tee shirt.
Have you or someone you know ever realized too late you looked less presentable or were less prepared than intended? Yes, I have, and it bothers me. I don't like to go out in public looking my worst.
