Today's Question(s):

Is there one food you could eat everyday and still not get tired of ?


You know, I'm not sure there is such a food for me. I enjoy variety a great deal, and my favorites taste all the better for having had a break. There's also a seasonal aspect to it: in the summer, I'd be tempted to say that a tomato sandwich comes close to that status for me, while in the winter, my spouse's wonderful beef-barley stewp would be almost an eat-every-day kind of thing.

Bonus Question:
in honor of Tape Measure Day

How many tape measures do you have in your home ?

Oh, goodness, if you count measuring tapes for sewing, probably half a dozen or more.

Last thing you used one for ?

I was measuring the inside of the bathroom cabinets (which I hate but can't afford to replace right now) in preparation for designing additional shelves to install to increase the efficiency of the storage space.

Extra Credit Question:
in Honor of "Take Charge of Change Day"

What is one thing you would like to change in your life ?


I'd love to be able to manage my weight better. However, I've discovered that I can either control my weight OR deal with stress in my life, but not the two simultaneously. And with the job I have, that means that weight management is getting short shrift at this point.

Just for Fun :

What do you call it

Sofa, couch or ____?
I grew up calling it a couch, but after several decades of working for a furniture retailer, I now call it a sofa.
Bag, sack or _____? Kinda depends on what it's being used for. The garbage goes out in a bag, but when I buy a large quantity of potatoes, they're in a sack.
Purse, pocketbook or ____? Purse.
Soda, pop or ____? Grew up calling it pop, spouse calls it soda, and now I most often call it soda-pop.
Grocery cart, buggy or ____? Cart.
Dinner or supper or _____ ? That's another one that depends on the circumstances. If we have guests over, particularly for a big special holiday meal, or if we're going out to a nice restaurant, it's dinner. If my spouse and I are sitting down cozily at our little kitchen table for the evening meal, it's supper.
