Since the Friday's Feast Chef has been out of the kitchen for quite some time (and may be for a while yet), I have decided to start my own version until he/she is able to return. I am calling it

MY ANSWERS...

Breakfast
Would you rather be really hot or really cold?
I would so much rather be more hot than cold. I really HATE to be cold! It literally paralyzes me when I am too cold. Once I am really cold it seems to go deep in my bones and I have a difficult time getting warmed up. If I am too hot, I can easily cool down instantly by jumping in a pool or cool shower...or just pouring water over my head! It's no wonder sitting by my firepace is my favorite place to be in the winter!


Lunch
Name three things (modern conveniences) you could not live without?
Well, okay I could probably live without these things if I HAD to, but these are the ones I would surely HATE to have to try and not have!

Toilet ~ nuff' said!

Shower or bath with HOT water!

The last one is a toss up between the Internet and my cell phone.



Dinner
If you were the eighth dwarf, what would your name be?
Purrky ~ derived from the words Purple, Perky, and Purr (I love cats!) Well, that's the best I could do!

Midnight Snack

Would you rather live to be 100 and sick, or live to be 50 (dying from a freak accident) and healthy?
Oh that's tough since I am really not that far off from 50... I can't even imagine dying in a few short years! Yet I don't really want to be sick and 100 either! Being sick AND old is not a good combination! I think if I could choose, I would like to live to be about 80 - if I am reasonably healthy.

Recipe for this Week (instead of your recipe for life - what is it for just this week?)
Life's moments pass faster than we realize. Make the most of each one.

1. One of the best concerts/plays/movies I ever saw that I really didn't think I'd like was hmm...can't think of one I didn't think I would like. But my favorite plays are the ones in Jackson Hole in the summer. I love all of those!

2. Zucchini Bread Semi Homemade (it is so easy and so yummy! RECIPE is at the end of post) is a recipe I recently made (or meal I recently ordered) that was delicious! (thanks Heather!)

3. It's time for Halloween and saying good bye to nice weather! Our local forecast predicts SNOW this weekend!!! Argh!

4. Sarah Palin is quite refreshing.

5. If I never hear the word (starts with a P and rhymes with hiss) again, it'll be too soon.

6. To one side of the curving road was a boy and on the other was a ghoul!

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to finishing writing my talk, attending Bryce's football game and freezing my buns off!!! tomorrow my plans include attending (and speaking at) our churches youth yearly planning meeting (at 7 a.m.), attending an American Mothers Mini Conference, cleaning, and then maybe chillin'... I hope! and Sunday, I want to go to my meetings (Bishop Youth Committee) and our three hour block of church, and hopefully sneak in a nap somehow!

1. Do you play any musical instruments? If so, which one(s)? If not, is there one you always wanted to know how to play? I took piano lessons for 10 years, so I guess you could say I play it.☺ I used to play the clarinet in Jr. High, though I wanted to play the flute. I really want to learn how to play the harp someday soon!

2. Do you sing well? Do you sing along in the car? Do you use head motions? Sing well? Hah! I get by, but that's about it. I love to sing in the car if I am alone and no I don't use head motions at least that I am aware of!

3. Who was your teen music crush? I LOVED Bobby Sherman and Shaun Cassidy!

4. What is your favorite type of music? I really like all kinds of music with the exception of hard rock, rap, and "hard" opera...lol. I listen to soft rock the most, but have a new appreciation for country.

5. Who are your three favorite musical artists? Josh Groban, Donny Osmond (yes it's true!- I didn't even like him as a teen, but love his voice now!), do I dare say Barry Manilow??? Celine Deon and Faith Hill are also favs.

6. Does your church play traditional or praise songs, or a combination? Mostly hymns.

7. What is your favorite hymn? Lead Kindly Light, Be Still My Soul, I Believe In Christ.

8. What is your favorite praise song? I Know That My Redeemer Lives and I Stand All Amazed

9. What is the strangest musician's name whose music you like? EMINEM --well at least I think his name is the strangest, even though I don't really like his music. Anyone that is going to take on such a high class name as M&M should be really REALLY good! ☺
