Good morning.

~ What's the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word, 'pancakes'? Carbs.

~ Have you ever eaten potato pancakes? No.

~ The last type of fish you ever caught? I don't even remember.

~ Does the man yelling really loud on TV commercials really make you want to go to their business and shop for a car? I press "mute" and don't even watch the commercials.
~ Wild mountains.

~ Inexpensive things that might bring great joy for someone: For me: knitting, meditation, drawing and painting, reading, playing with pets, gardening etc.

~ Simple, wonderful winter food and drinks: Soups, teas, coconut milk with cocoa powder. All homemade.

Take care.

[quote=rainroosty;64569586]Hiya friends! It's been overly exhausting every day for a month now since the hacker 'friends' destroyed our lives. Yesterday I was wishing I had a bazooka.
So sorry roosty. That's awful.
~ What's the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word, 'pancakes'?
Get the waffle maker out instead.
~ Have you ever eaten potato pancakes?
Yes. Love them.
~ The last type of fish you ever caught?
Bonita in Mexico a long time ago.
~ Does the man yelling really loud on TV commercials really make you want to go to their business and shop for a car?
Nope. Can't hear it. Commercials are always on mute.
~ Wild opossum tails. I was scratching Big Daddy's butt and playing with his tail while he was in the feeding box. He stayed in there a long time. _Big piggy boy, he ate both feeds last night. _________.

~ Inexpensive things that might bring great joy for someone:
A good DVD movie. Good books. One of those giant candy canes I can't find this year. MMM Marshmallow Santa's. A box of dark chocolate covered cherries.
~ Simple, wonderful winter food and drinks:
Some bubbly chilling in the snow. Home made pot roast and soups. Chili.
~ The light bulbs type and wattage that you mostly buy:
This friend we are helping clean out his shop gave us an antique floor lamp. It has one big white glass shade and 3 candles on the side. I put a flame bulb in it and 3 flicker bulbs in the candles. It is super fun and spooky looking. I'm looking for some plastic that I can mold into an insert for some bats. The shade is in the shape of a bowl and I want to carve a foam pumpkin to put on top of the rim of the shade. Our antique buffet looks like a coffin when I cover it with the Halloween table cloth I made. I think the lamp will go next to it next Halloween.
I'm always wishing you all the best of luck and good health...and that's no crap!




Aww thanks roosty. You too.

I have to go to a wake tonight for my friends husband. I have another friend on hospice now. John is sick, nope not Covid. He tested negative yesterday. I hope I don't get his cold too.

That type of advertising does not work at all, especially when people are muting or changing the channel just so they don't have to hear it.
