TODAY'S QUESTIONS

Have you used a tea bag that has no string attached to it? - No tea or coffee for me. I like water. Caffeine gives me a headache and I won't drink decaffeinated either.

Have you used loose tea leaves?

Do you buy coffee beans to grind at home?

Do you own a hot beverage machine that uses single-serving pods such as K-cups?

My bank has a small machine in its lobby which makes coffee, tea and hot chocolate for free. Did you ever use such a machine in a business that you visited? - I've seen them in banks and car repair facilities.

Have you used a teapot?

Do you ever keep hot beverages in an insulated pitcher? - Can't remember the last hot beverage I had...

Do you have a favorite container for hot or cold beverages that you use outside of your home? - No.

What types of herbs do you like?

What are some of your favorite spices? - I like fresh garlic and I have an amazing presser. I use it at least 4 times per week.

Do you like spicy-hot foods? - No. I'm fond of Indian food but to me it's not that spicy, just full of flavor. At least at the 2 main Indian restaurants that I go to.

What is your favorite starchy food and how do you like it prepared? - Fresh garlic in spaghetti and chicken parmesan on top of spaghetti.

Due to lack of space here I buy it at a couple of Italian carry-out types when I want it which isn't too often.

That's all for now, boys and girls. Have a totally terrific Tuesday, and don't forget to commit an act of kindness. - Thanks, Pam!

Have you used a tea bag that has no string attached to it? A few years ago, I bought a box of those by mistake.

Have you used loose tea leaves? I tried the tea ball method....too much mess and work for me.

Do you buy coffee beans to grind at home? Many years ago, I tried that....no advantage there for me. About "coffee"....I might have one cup of decaf coffee every week or two....really not a fan.

Do you own a hot beverage machine that uses single-serving pods such as K-cups? No. That's a real money maker for coffee companies. The price of those machines is crazy!

My bank has a small machine in its lobby which makes coffee, tea and hot chocolate for free. Did you ever use such a machine in a business that you visited? OMG, No. I've seen those at many places in my area. They've got to be nasty, as I'm thinking they never wash/rinse those machines......just keep refilling.

Have you used a teapot? Yes

Do you ever keep hot beverages in an insulated pitcher? No

Do you have a favorite container for hot or cold beverages that you use outside of your home? No

What types of herbs do you like? Oregano

What are some of your favorite spices? I don't like a lot of spices, or spiced food

Do you like spicy-hot foods? No

What is your favorite starchy food and how do you like it prepared? No favorites. I've given up, or have limited, most starchy foods, and I dropped 15 pounds.

Thanks, Pam
