Friday Feast #9

Appetizer
How fast can you type?
Last time I checked, I tested at 95+ WPM with about the same % in accuracy.

Soup
What is your favorite online game?
I have no idea. I guess Bejeweled, but my hubby bought that one for me so I can play it anywhere.

Salad
On a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 as highest), how intelligent do you think you are?
Umm, maybe a 6.5?

Main Course
Name three of your best teachers from your school years.
Let's see. There's mom, dad, and Mr. Villarreal. (I was home schooled through 8th grade.)

Dessert
What are your plans for this upcoming weekend?
I really don't have any!

Friday Feast #8

Appetizer
What are you proud of?
I'm proud of my husband. He's such a hard worker and is super smart.

Soup
What is the best thing you’ve ever won as a prize?
Hmm. I haven't really won much, but I won an autographed CD one time. I think the band's name was PFR.

Salad
Name something you do that is a waste of time.
I'm not sure anything I do is really a waste of time. I do things that some might think are a waste of time, but for me they serve some purpose or other.

Main Course
In what year of your life did you change the most?
Now this is an interesting question. To be honest, I'm not quite sure. I know I've changed a lot in the past six years, but I'm not sure I can pinpoint it to a certain year. I think I also changed a lot the first year after I graduated high school, which would have been when I was 17-18. Getting out of that tiny school, church, and town was one of the best things to ever happen to me!

Dessert
Where is a place you consider to be very tranquil?
The beach.

Friday Feast #7

Appetizer
Who is your favorite news anchor/reporter? Why?
I really don't watch the news. It's way too happy.

Soup
Name 3 foods that are currently in your freezer.
Vegetarian lasagna, a huge bag of broccoli florets, and more raw boneless skinless chicken than I care to admit.

Salad
If you were to have the opportunity to name a new town or city, what would you call it?
Mouseville. It's where I would send my dog, Molly (whom we call "Mouse" more than we call "Molly") when she's been a very bad girl.

Main Course
What will most likely be the next book you read?
I'm currently reading Wally Lamb's She's Come Undone. When I'm through with that one, I plan on reading Salem Falls by Jodi Picoult. I love me some Jodi Picoult books!

Dessert
What's the first thing you notice about the opposite gender?
Whether or not it is my husband.

Friday Feast #6

Answers from the crazy mind of my wonderful husband:

Appetizer
Name two things that made you smile this week.
"The muscles around the corners of my mouth. And my brain."

Soup
Fill in the blank: Don't you hate it when ________?
Don't you hate it when "your face falls off"? ROFL!

Salad
When you can't go to sleep, what is your personal remedy to help yourself drift into Lullabyland?
"I start counting the number of times that the ceiling fan squeaks."

Main Course
What is something about which you've always wondered but have not yet found a good answer?
"Why is it when I put dull black shoe polish on a dull black boot, it becomes this shiny mirror-like image? And why does adding water help the waterproofing process?"

Dessert
What is your favorite pasta dish?
"Pasta in a bowl. With a sauce on it."

Friday Feast #5

Appetizer
What does the color pink make you think of?
Two things. One, the song "Pink" by Aerosmith. Sorry, I can't help it! "Pink is my favorite crayon..." Two, that poor pink fluffy thing in my last blog entry.

Soup
Name something you thought you had lost, but later found.
After we moved, my husband and I both thought we had lost his nifty techie geek pocket knife my parents gave him for Christmas a year ago. He was really upset. BUT, just last month he found it! In his car. Hiding underneath the seat. He was thrilled. :o)

Salad
In 3 words, describe this past week.
Exhausting. Entertaining. Encouraging.

Main Course
What are you obsessed with?
Babies, getting a baby belly, and beads. Oh, and music too. And my husband. And photography and photo editing. Shall I stop now?

Dessert
What kind of perfume or cologne do you like to wear?
I normally wear cheap stuff from bath & body works or other places like that. One of my favorite scents is Amber Romance from VS. I only buy it off ebay. ;o)

Friday Feast #4

Appetizer
Where on your body do you have a scar, and what caused it?
Ewwe, I have a puffy scar right above my left shoulder blade. I also have a couple really small puffy ones on my chest. They were all caused by the horrible case of the chicken pox I caught when I was 14. I wish I had listened when my mom said, "STOP SCRATCHING". Moms always know best. Duh. I also have a very thin only noticeable by me scar on the palm of my hand. That's thanks to breaking a mirror (on accident) and splicing my hand open. Oh yeah, that was fun and not embarrassing at all.

Soup
What is something that has happened to you that you would consider a miracle?
I survived carbon monoxide poisoning when I should have died. That really is a miracle. I've had a couple other close calls. I guess God wants me here for some reason or other.

Salad
Name a television personality who really gets on your nerves.
Just one?? Hmm. Rosie O'Donnel. Shoot, pretty much all the people on The View. LOL I also can't stand Emeril or Sandra Lee on the Food Network.

Main Course
What was a funny word you said as a child (such as "pasketti" for "spaghetti")?
I think I used to say "flutterbye" instead of "butterfly" or maybe it was "eyeflash" instead of eyelash. Either way... awww, I know. I was so cute. These days though I say "basketti" instead of spaghetti and "evelator" instead of elevator and "cinnaninamon" instead of cinnamon. Aww, I know. I'm still cute!

Dessert
Fill in the blank: I have always thought ______ was ______.
I have always thought Molly dog was going to be on my poo list forever. (But she finally weaseled her way into my heart. Stupid cute little dog.)

Friday Feast #3

Appetizer
What sound, other than the normal ringing, would you like your telephone to make?
Hmm. I heard a funny impersonation ring tone the other day that would be cool, but I think it would offend too many people. A lady I used to work with had a cellphone that meowed instead of ring. That would be cool, but I think my dogs would go nuts.

Soup
Describe your usual disposition in meteorological terms (partly cloudy, sunny, stormy, etc.).
Crystal is normally mostly cloudy with periodic spurts of sunshine. Watch out though, she can turn cold and stormy in the blink of an eye. Her hail is pretty harsh too.

Salad
What specific subject do you feel you know better than any other subjects?
I know some Bible subjects really well. Other than that, I guess things pertaining to jewelry making would be something I know best. I also know a lot about pregnancy and childbirth even though I've never experienced either one!

Main Course
Imagine you were given the ability to remember everything you read for one entire day. Which books/magazines/newspapers would you choose to read?
Well... I guess if speed reading was a part of the ability, I'd read the Bible, then lots of books about pregnancy, childbirth, and babies. Yeah, I'm a little hooked and I don't think you can ever know too much.

Dessert
If a popular candy maker contacted you to create their next confection, what would it be like and what would you name it?
The Chocolate Dream Bar: A wonderful chocolate yummy that magically turns into whatever you're in the mood for. Sound unlikely? Hey. With chocolate, anything can happen.

Friday Feast #2

Appetizer - Have you been sick yet this winter? If so, what did you come down with?
No. Thank goodness, I have not been sick.

Soup - What colors dominate your closet?
Black, green, teal, blue.

Salad - How would you describe your personal "comfort zone"?
I'm only truly comfortable in my own home around only close family and friends.

Main Course - On which reality show would you really like to be a contestant?
The only reality show I'd ever go on doesn't really have contestants. "What Not to Wear". Care to nominate me??

Dessert - Which holiday would you consider to be your favorite?
I guess Christmas, even though I don't really care much about it. The only reason I like it is I love to be a giver, and I like the family togetherness it brings.

Appetizer
What was one of the fashion fads when you were a teenager?
Hmm... well, let's see. I guess that was the start of the baggy pants that hang down to your knees phase! We also had big bangs for a bit before that, and I saw the return of bell bottoms and platform shoes. *shudders*

Soup
Name one thing you think people assume about you when they first meet you.
That I am quiet ALL the time. ROFL!

Salad
On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being highest, how hard do you work?
Probably only about a 5, unless I have a real job. I'm pretty lazy otherwise.
