Good morning everyone, hope you all have a great day!!

Today's Question(s):

When was the last time you wore a name tag ?


I need to wear one whenever I go into a Federal building..so, it was one day last week the last time I wore one!


Have you ever forgotten to take it off before throwing your shirt in the wash ?
No, as soon as I leave the building I need to remove it, I am not allowed to wear it around the general public in the outside world. So in a way is good or else I would probably forget it and wash it.


Bonus Question:


Is there anything in your freezer or pantry that you have so much of, that you won't have to buy it for awhile ?

umm, No


Extra Credit Question:

The "Royalty Fairy" is going to bestow upon you a Royal Title for the day

Which title would you chose ?

I guess I would have to say, The Queen of the Sick & Perpetual help.

Just for Fun:

Cheese Doodles yay or nay

crunchy
or
puffy .............yay...I love puffy cheese doodles!!

We wore name tags about 1 year ago at Dh's retirement reunion party and will do it again in April. Fun group. In 1993 his company had an enhanced early retirement and about 30 men and a few women in this area retired at the same time. We get together at least once a year and some groups meet every month. They are now scattered all over the USA, but they love to come back to this gathering.

Mr. VA says we have too much salt, but I say you can't have too much salt.

Grandma is title enough for me. My grandchildren are so cute and smart and they love me so much.

Love cheetos and I prefer them hard but if not available soft is all right too. My grandchildren love these too.

Last Friday for a CARE group meeting we hosted in our home.

Have you ever forgotten to take it off before throwing your shirt in the wash ?
not yet


Bonus Question:

Instant oatmeal, (regular/plain) we have about 100 packets of it. Everybody eats the other flavors and then I buy more. I've been trying to figure out the best way to use up all the plain stuff, making cookies is all I've been able to come up with so far.

I like ECG1951's... The Queen of the Sick & Perpetual Help, however The Queen of DIY would fit nicely too.

Wore nametags on my USAF uniforms until '96. The uniforms I wore most of the time had a sewd-on name tag. But when I wore blues, there was a danger of me washing my nametag. And I think I did a couple of times over the years... Current employer requires an entry badge to our facility.



Bonus Question:

We get regular "care packages" from German friends and relatives, so we stay WELL stocked on alcoholic candy, sauce mixes and other food ingredients. (And I have the physique to prove it!)

Extra Credit Question:

The "Royalty Fairy" is going to bestow upon you a Royal Title for the day. Which title would you choose? "King of the Right Hand Lane"


Just for Fun:

crunchy- 1st choice
or
puffy - Heck, I'll eat them too!

I haven't worn a name tag in years and never forgot to take one off. Like Charley I have a lot of chicken breast in the freezer. I don't need the Royalty Fairy, my name means Princess

OK Karla, I expect you to give us the directions for making a 2-liter soda bottle terrarium with pictures some time very soon! Sounds like a fun way to get some local kids interested in gardening!

When was the last time you wore a name tag ?
It's been more than a decade

Ha
ve you ever forgotten to take it off before throwing your shirt in the wash ?
Sounds like me. I forget to take off brooches and other adornments, too.

Is there anything in your freezer or pantry that you have so much of, that you won't have to buy it for awhile ?
Whole Turkeys. I believe there are three that are over 20# each in my freezer.
You might think liquor, too, but my collection seems a bit short right now - see pic:

Most folks would also say I am well stocked on canned tuna, but that's not true. I have two cases and I'm not comfortable unless I have 6 cases in the house. Must be an OCD thing.

Cheese Doodles yay or nay
YAY!

crunchy YES!
orpuffy YES!
