TODAY'S QUESTIONS
When did you last have ice cream in a cone? Has been several years
If you go to an ice cream parlor, do you prefer to have your ice cream in a regular cone, a waffle cone, or a bowl? The last time I was in an ice cream parlor was in Belgium. They are real big on waffle cones. The place I always went to was not wimpy on the size of their scoops.
Do you like popsicles? What's your favorite flavor? Not a fan of popsicles. When I was 8 and had to have my tonsils yanked my mom told me afterwards I could have ice cream. I was way less than happy when the nurse told me I could only have a popsicle.
Other than ice cream, name a frozen treat that you really like. Frozen daiquiris
Have you ever eaten ice cream directly out of the container? Only about 90 percent of the time.
BONUS QUESTIONS
Have you ever flown a kite? I have. When I was in high school and traveled via the ferry for school trips we would bring kites to fly off the back of the ferry.
Have you ever made your own kite? I am not that talented.
If so, did you use a kit or did you make it with odds and ends such as sticks and paper or sheets of plastic?
Have you ever seen a hot air balloon (other than on TV, movie, etc.)? In grade school we made a hot air balloon. What we did not do is make it out of fire proof materials. The Hindenburg was less of a disaster.
Have you ever ridden in a hot air balloon? Nope
Did you ever receive a balloon, or a balloon bouquet, as a gift? Maybe when I was a kid
EXTRA CREDIT Q'S
Are you good at drawing? I am pretty good at drawing a blank.
What sort of images have you drawn? Not sure. No one including myself could ever figure out what I drew.
If you doodle, what do you draw? Doodles
When you were a kid, did you ever draw with crayons on the walls or furniture in your home? If so, did you get in trouble for it? If I did it had to have been before I erased my memory by plugging car keys in to the electrical outlet when I was real little.
Do you ever engage in any sort of craft activities (e.g., woodworking, scrapbooking, pottery making, painting)? As with kite building, I am not that talented.

EXTRA CREDIT Q'S
Are you good at drawing?
People have always told me I am, but I'm critical of myself. Back in high school a boy told me that I "draw good for a white girl". That's nice. I did win art awards throughout school. I draw fairly regularly; most recently a few hours ago.
What sort of images have you drawn?
A little bit of everything at one point or another: people, animals, cartoons, caricatures, objects, designs, nature, architectural, landscapes, etc.
If you doodle, what do you draw?
I make up cartoonish characters, sketch people. Sometimes I'll just draw random lines and see what happens. Usually an unsatisfying abstract ugly wreck is what happens.
When you were a kid, did you ever draw with crayons on the walls or furniture in your home? If so, did you get in trouble for it? I
I don't think so.
Do you ever engage in any sort of craft activities (e.g., woodworking, scrapbooking, pottery making, painting)?
Not really. I did just repaint a mirror of that counts.
When did you last have ice cream in a cone?
On Sunday. If you go to an ice cream parlor, do you prefer to have your ice cream in a regular cone, a waffle cone, or a bowl?
I like waffle cones best, but as long as it's ice cream, I'm not fussy about how it's served. Do you like popsicles? What's your favorite flavor?
Yes, although I liked them better when they came in twin packs. Nowadays I usually get the more upscale types of bars that have more fruit flavor in them. Other than ice cream, name a frozen treat that you really like.
I like Trader Joe's lime bars. Have you ever eaten ice cream directly out of the container?
Are you kidding? All the time! BONUS QUESTIONS
Have you ever flown a kite?
Yes, but not for many years. Have you ever made your own kite?
I tried once when I was in grade school, but my attempt was a miserable failure. If so, did you use a kit or did you make it with odds and ends such as sticks and paper or sheets of plastic?
I think I used newspapers and odds and ends. But it's been so long, I honestly don't remember. Have you ever seen a hot air balloon (other than on TV, movie, etc.)?
No, I don't think I have ever seen one in person. Does the Goodyear blimp count? Have you ever ridden in a hot air balloon?
No way. Not gonna happen! I don't care how good the view is. But I did ride in a blimp. Did you ever receive a balloon, or a balloon bouquet, as a gift?
No, but that sounds like fun.
EXTRA CREDIT Q'S
Are you good at drawing?
Not very. I can draw a little, but my attempts are pretty amateurish. What sort of images have you drawn?
As a little girl I drew my own "comic strip" which recurring stick figure characters. If you doodle, what do you draw?
I don't doodle very much, but I usually just draw circles or cartoon faces. When you were a kid, did you ever draw with crayons on the walls or furniture in your home? If so, did you get in trouble for it?
No, but I got in trouble for scribbling in the margins of my parent's books. Do you ever engage in any sort of craft activities (e.g., woodworking, scrapbooking, pottery making, painting)?
Not at present. I used to do cross stitch until I became bored with it. I have also painted designs on smooth beach rocks with model airplane paint.

TODAY'S QUESTIONS
When did you last have ice cream in a cone? It's been a long long time ago, however just last week I had a dish of ice cream. If you go to an ice cream parlor, do you prefer to have your ice cream in a regular cone, a waffle cone, or a bowl? Dish please................ a "bowl" sounds so large. Do you like popsicles? What's your favorite flavor? As a kid I had popsicles,,,, usually cherry Other than ice cream, name a frozen treat that you really like. Frozen candy bars............. Have you ever eaten ice cream directly out of the container? The last time I did that was when I was a kid and mom owned a little cafe in a small town. She would allow me to help myself if the container got down to the bottom. I usually kept an eye on the freezer chest before my sisters would find out that one of the ice cream container was getting low.
If so, did you use a kit or did you make it with odds and ends such as sticks and paper or sheets of plastic? Sticks and paper............ didn't have plastic in those early days as a kid. Have you ever seen a hot air balloon (other than on TV, movie, etc.)? Yes,,, they're all over the area flying in the cool weather of spring and fall. One almost hit the house a few years ago when trying to land on the golf course a few blocks away. Have you ever ridden in a hot air balloon? No Did you ever receive a balloon, or a balloon bouquet, as a gift? Yes..... When I was a kid I launched a large balloon that I bought at the dime-store. They had a grand opening and gave away helium balloons. I asked if I could buy much larger ones and get them filled with gas and they okayed that for me. When I got the balloons home I rigged up a way to have them carry a special note. I launched the balloon from a small town near Omaha and months later received a reply from a farmer in the middle of central Missouri who found it when plowing his field.
EXTRA CREDIT Q'S
Are you good at drawing? Yes,,, but only things I like to draw. What sort of images have you drawn? Landscapes, lakes, mountains, houses etc. If you doodle, what do you draw? figure eights....
