Nothing stands out. I eat the same boring stuff, especially during the week.

~ What kind of heating do you have in your home and do you like it?

Central. It heats so it does its job, but I prefer natural heat over artificial heat. The heater heat is so drying and suffocating.



~ Do you miss the summer?

Not really. Our summers are sometimes 6 months long with short sporadic visits (albeit much milder) throughout the other half - it was hot on Christmas day and the A/C broke that morning. It's always somewhere around the corner which I like until July hits.

~ What brand shaver do you have?

Those cheap blue ones. I'm not very hairy.


~ Who washes your clothes and where do your clothes get washed?


I wash them in the washing machine.


~ Where do you suppose Paul Bunyan lived?


Up a bean stalk.



~ Orange McFizz.

A dumb thing I made up a long time ago. I won't explain.

~ Do you save any containers from something you bought to use as a handy storage container?

Sometimes.


~ What time would you like to go to bed?

When I need to.

Wow, great minds think alike, lol. I agree about the natural heat, and the summer issue, but we're probably the only ones who think on those terms. I do emember many years ago out here in Az too, guys were wearing shorts to work in December.
Heres to the bean stalk comment though. ����

~ What did you have that was good to eat this past week? Some scrumptious beef stew which I made for a dinner party on Saturday night. I made tons and had enough leftovers for lunch on three days this week. I also made a pumpkin pie and a black-bottom pecan pie and those were fab as well.

~ What kind of heating do you have in your home and do you like it? I have natural gas, forced-air heat. I like it a lot, though the air gets very dry during the coldest months.

~ Have you ever gone to the market and found that they moved things around so that you don't know where things are? Yes! I find it very annoying because I make my list out in the order of the aisles in the store. My favorite grocery store is presently making major changes, and it has upset my routine. Once I learn where everything is again, I'll be a happy camper.

~ The last thing you had with tomato on it: I had grape tomatoes in my salad at lunchtime yesterday.

~ Have you had any precipitation this past week? Yes. We had a mixture of rain and heavy snow last evening. There's not much accumulation, though, and roads are fine this morning.

~ Do you miss the summer? When we have weather like yesterday's, yes. I love bitter cold winter days, but hate it when it's right around the freezing mark and raining. We've had several days like that recently. It's yucky and makes me miss summer.

~ What brand shaver do you have? I have a cheap plastic razor; no idea what brand it is.

~ Who washes your clothes and where do your clothes get washed? I do my own laundry, about 90% in the washer and about 10% hand-washed in the bathroom sink.

~ Where do you suppose Paul Bunyan lived? In a cabin in Minnesota.

~ Have you ever used an axe? Hmmmm. I don't think so. I've used a hatchet many times, but I don't recall ever using an axe.

~ How about a sledge hammer? Yes. I used a sledge hammer a few times when I was a teen and was helping my dad with demo for a construction project at home. Demo is fun!

~ Have you ever been served something to eat in a basket? Think now.... Yes. Stuff like fish and chips, burger and fries, etc. My favorite hamburger place is in New Buffalo, Michigan, and it serves many of its menu items in plastic baskets.

~ Orange marmalade.

~ Do you save any containers from something you bought to use as a handy storage container? I sure do. I'm very frugal and I'll re-use containers many times. When I accumulate too many, I put them in the recycle bin.

~ Where was the last place that you walked on 'the beach'? The Mediterranean Sea at Split, Croatia on October 2, 2015. What a wonderful day that was!

~ What kind of store do you really like to browse around in? An old-fashioned antiques store where everything is piled up rather haphazardly. I love to root around in places like that.

~ Well, now that we're at the book store, what section are you heading to first? Travel or Biogaphies.

~ Where shall we have a bite to eat now that we're done shopping? Radamak's in New Buffalo, Michigan. (The hamburger place I wrote about above.)

~ Now that you are home, what would you like to do? Kick back in my recliner, with a big glass of water on the end table and a M*A*S*H DVD in the player.

~ What time would you like to go to bed? 11 p.m.


***** Pleasant dreams and happy things to you, today, Fryday and all weekend long! ***** Yippee! I'm so glad it's Fryday! Thanks for the questions, roosty roo!
