1 Do you know where your Breaker Box is located? Of course.
2 Have you ever gotten up and walked out of a restaurant??? If so, Why?! - What happened? The waiter insulted my friend over her choice of cheese for her salad and she got very upset. We walked out. The manager saw us and asked what was wrong. He offered us a different waiter and to eat free but we were over it and just wanted to leave. Bet that waiter got an earful!

4 Do you know who ''Dora The Explorer'' is? Hard not to.
5 For 2 Million Dollars, Would you basically be homeless, live on the street - with all that entails - for one month? Hell no! My personal safety is worth more than that. Do you realize how many homeless women are raped?

2 Have you ever gotten up and walked out of a restaurant??? If so, Why?! - What happened? One time, after ordering, we were waiting an extraordinary amount of time to get our food.

11 If you were handed a blank check that HAD to be used on ONE piece of Home Furniture for your house, what would you buy or replace? I can't decide.

no

concert
8 How come when I try to make waffles they always end up wither way too hard or to flimsy and soggy and gross?
don't know, only ever do frozen waffles--actually, you know what makes a great frozen waffle? using a george foreman grill--although its more work than a frozen waffle should be

Hmmm. When I'm home for the holidays, I usually make the mashed taters. I am sort of tired of it, but when I'm not there and I hear about someone else doing it, I feel --can you believe this-- jealous! I have this recipe for cappiccino mousse trifle that is my new thing--it is fabulous.
10 When you were a school kid, did you ever talk back to a teacher? Alot? Just once? Details!
Does insisting that I didn't lie about cheating on a test count as back talk?
11 If you were handed a blank check that HAD to be used on ONE piece of Home Furniture for your house, what would you buy or replace?
One piece? I'll let you choose for me... a new desk (mine has some structural problems) or a new bed or a new sofa or chair (if you are feeling generous, I'll get a whole new living room set)
12 Do you have a Bad Temper?
sigh. no, but I just got off the phone with a friend and she just drove me b.s.c. crazy/irritated/angry. I was in such a good mood all day and now it is totally out the window. I'm trying really hard to calm down. Ha, sounds like I have a bad temper, doesn't it?
13 Do you pump your own gas?
doesn't really apply
14 If you suddenly found yourself in a Bad Situation...and, I mean a REAL Bad Spot...and you were allowed ONE Phone Call to anyone anywhere...who are you calling?
for help? my sister

Replies: (list all replies)
1 Do you know where your Breaker Box is located?*****In the laundry room.
2 Have you ever gotten up and walked out of a restaurant??? If so, Why?!*****Yes. Once after waiting for 30 minutes for someone--anyone to take our order and a couple of times after looking at the menu and realizing it was not what we thought.
3 Could you put up/install a new ceiling fan in your bedroom?*****No. In fact, my husband was repairing it this weekend and watching him with one foot on a ladder and the other, a foot and a half lower on the bouncing bed, it was obvious I was needed for better things, like double checking to be sure the electricity was off, and searching for the screws and washers that kept bouncing onto the floor and bed.
4 Do you know who ''Dora The Explorer'' is?*****Sure do and her handsome cousin Diego, Boots and all the critters.
5 For 2 Million Dollars, Would you basically be homeless, live on the street - with all that entails - for one month?*****What's the weather, what street, lol. For 2MM, I'd give it a go.
6 Whwn GoldiBear was Breaking and Entering and sampling 3 different breakfasts that did NOT belong to her, what was the dish? What were the rightful eaters having that morning?*****The porridge that belonged to Momma, Pappa and Baby Bear.
7 Its a Saturday Night...You have the choice of free tickets to either a really cool movie opening that you have been looking forward to or a concert where one of your favorite bands or singers is putting on a show, which would you choose?*****The concert, of course.
8 How come when I try to make waffles they always end up wither way too hard or to flimsy and soggy and gross?*****Because you don't have my wonderful flip waffle maker. Come over and my waffle maker will amaze you. How about Bananas Foster waffles or my granddaughter's favorite, waffles with choco chips and mini marshmellows melted in.
9 Well, the Holiday Season is coming up, and alot of us (well, not ME, lol) will be doing alot of cooking...My question to you fine follks is: What is a favorite dish or a dish that you really look forward to preparing every year...and, by contrast, ... Is there anything you seem to have to make year after year that you really hate making?*****I have it down to any art and can do a full ham and turkey feast in short order, except I do hate preparing the turkey for the oven. I do the stuffing, cranberries, fruit compote and get this......NINE different veggies, so we have everyone's favorite veggies and I don't hear, "I don't like ......, I'd rather have......". But you said "holiday" so I have to say, my favoite to make it on Christmas, after gifts are open, I head to the kitchen and make blintzes with all kinds of toppings.
10 When you were a school kid, did you ever talk back to a teacher?*****Talk back to a nun with a ruler???? Are you kidding???
11 If you were handed a blank check that HAD to be used on ONE piece of Home Furniture for your house, what would you buy or replace?*****I'd LOVE to replace my lower kitchen cabinets with with the kind that are all pull out drawers. The old back ain't what it use to be. The top cabinets I'd leave, since I can't reach anything above the first shelf anyway.
12 Do you have a Bad Temper?*****I'm Italian/Romanian/Greek, some of the worst. Maybe terribly impatient is more what I am.
13 Do you pump your own gas?*****Can you say "Diva"? No.
14 If you suddenly found yourself in a Bad Situation...and, I mean a REAL Bad Spot...and you were allowed ONE Phone Call to anyone anywhere...who are you calling?*****When you say "ONE phone call", it sounds like I should be calling one the three lawyers in the family. I guess the one who is my fantastic "twin cousin" Mike. We've always kept each other's secrets.
15 As always...what is The Kindest thing anyone did or said to you, or for you...over the weekend?*****I spent the weekend dealing with my ongoing back problems, and my husband gave me several massages so I could take fewer meds.
SUPER-HARD Bonus Question That I Bet NOBODY Gets HA HA!!! (And yes, its a legit question, lol):*****You win the bet.

5 For 2 Million Dollars, Would you basically be homeless, live on the street - with all that entails - for one month? No. I especially don't think it's safe for a woman to be out on the streets by herself. Women are targeted. So I don't think it's worth risking my safety for all the money.

1 Do you know where your Breaker Box is located? Yes.
2 Have you ever gotten up and walked out of a restaurant??? If so, Why?! - What happened? Yes. There have been a couple of times where we could tell after the first few minutes that it was not going to be a good experience. However, there have been a few other times when we really should have left and didn't, and that was usually because of the no good really bad service.
3 Could you put up/install a new ceiling fan in your bedroom? Not me. I think my husband could.

8 How come when I try to make waffles they always end up wither way too hard or to flimsy and soggy and gross? Frozen? Are you toasting or something else? We toast in the toaster oven.

1 Do you know where your Breaker Box is located? In the garage.
2 Have you ever gotten up and walked out of a restaurant??? If so, Why?! - What happened? I've had some bad restaurant experiences but I don't remember ever getting up and walking out. My mom once made us leave because she didn't like the looks of a place, but that was before we ever sat down.
3 Could you put up/install a new ceiling fan in your bedroom? Nah, that's what husbands are for. I wouldn't attempt it, I'm sure I'd electrocute myself.
4 Do you know who ''Dora The Explorer'' is? Yes, and my silly teenage son and siller sister have some sort of Dora private joke between them.
5 For 2 Million Dollars, Would you basically be homeless, live on the street - with all that entails - for one month? I think I would, and then I would probably give most of the money to a shelter or some other organization that helps the homeless.
6 Whwn GoldiBear was Breaking and Entering and sampling 3 different breakfasts that did NOT belong to her, what was the dish? What were the rightful eaters having that morning? Too hot porridge, too cold porridge, and just right porridge!

8 How come when I try to make waffles they always end up wither way too hard or to flimsy and soggy and gross? If you're like me and only use toaster waffles, just toast them one cycle at a time and as soon as they start to brown get 'em outta there! (I still burn them sometimes.)
9 Well, the Holiday Season is coming up, and alot of us (well, not ME, lol) will be doing alot of cooking...My question to you fine follks is: What is a favorite dish or a dish that you really look forward to preparing every year...and, by contrast, ... Is there anything you seem to have to make year after year that you really hate making? I like making fresh cranberry sauce because it's so easy and I hate the canned stuff. I don't like making mashed potatoes, so much work. Luckily hubby doesn't mind and his always come out so much better than mine anyway.
10 When you were a school kid, did you ever talk back to a teacher? Alot? Just once? Details! No, I always had a healthy fear of authority.
11 If you were handed a blank check that HAD to be used on ONE piece of Home Furniture for your house, what would you buy or replace? I would get a small chaise for my bedroom, and that would be my designated reading place.
12 Do you have a Bad Temper? I have a very hard time expressing anger, so when I get really mad I generally keep it in. I WISH I had a bad temper!
13 Do you pump your own gas? Yep, I don't even remember what it's like to pull into a full serve station - I don't think they exist anymore in Fla.
14 If you suddenly found yourself in a Bad Situation...and, I mean a REAL Bad Spot...and you were allowed ONE Phone Call to anyone anywhere...who are you calling? Depending on the situation, my husband or my sister.
15 As always...what is The Kindest thing anyone did or said to you, or for you...over the weekend? Before I went out with my sister on Saturday night my hubby told me I looked really cute.
Do you know what time it was when they met out in the street? Hmm, maybe if I knew who THEY were?
Happy Monday all!

Wouldn't you expect to find lobster in a place called Shrimp Cocktail? After looking at the menu we told the waitress we were looking for lobster so were moving on. She kindly directed us to a nice place.
3 Could you put up/install a new ceiling fan in your bedroom? I've seen valleyguy do this so often that I think I just might be able to. It might take a few attempts, and I would certainly need someone to hold it for me while I wired it in, but perhaps, maybe I could just manage it.
4 Do you know who ''Dora The Explorer'' is? Most certainly.
5 For 2 Million Dollars, Would you basically be homeless, live on the street - with all that entails - for one month? Do I get to choose which month of the year this happens? If it was summertime, I would.
6 When GoldiBear was Breaking and Entering and sampling 3 different breakfasts that did NOT belong to her, what was the dish? What were the rightful eaters having that morning? Porridge (click and drag).
7 Its a Saturday Night...You have the choice of free tickets to either a really cool movie opening that you have been looking forward to or a concert where one of your favorite bands or singers is putting on a show, which would you choose? Concert
8 How come when I try to make waffles they always end up wither way too hard or to flimsy and soggy and gross? You are obviously using frozen waffles and not heating them for the appropriate time. Homemade waffles would be my suggestion.
9 Well, the Holiday Season is coming up, and alot of us (well, not ME, lol) will be doing alot of cooking...My question to you fine follks is: What is a favorite dish or a dish that you really look forward to preparing every year...and, by contrast, ... Is there anything you seem to have to make year after year that you really hate making? It's all a good time.
10 When you were a school kid, did you ever talk back to a teacher? Alot? Just once? Details! I was once kicked out of class for talking, but I wasn't talking, it was the kid next to me. As I exited the classroom I said I wasn't talking, and as he kept telling me I was, I kept telling him I wasn't. He got madder and madder and redder and redder as I calmly walked out of the room. The other kids said they thought he was gonna throw a desk at me he was so mad, but though I was controlled, I was just as mad, so his anger didn't fizz on me.
11 If you were handed a blank check that HAD to be used on ONE piece of Home Furniture for your house, what would you buy or replace? May I have new kitchen cupboards and counters? Of course, that would lead to a new floor. Then, possibly, my kitchen table and chairs wouldn't match, so they'd need to be replaced. Of course, the wallpaper and paint would need to be changed as well as the window treatments. The light and plumbing fixtures would need to be updated as well. Oh great ... it's the Christmas season and I'm in the midst of a kitchen renovation ... thanks a lot, PT!
12 Do you have a Bad Temper? I had a bad temper when I was younger, but I've mellowed a lot with age and experience. Having said that, in the words of David Banner, "Don't make my angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry".
13 Do you pump your own gas? Last summer our very last full service gas station switched over to self-serve, so at 53 I finally learned to do that, and I've gotta tell you, I'm not impressed with the process. There's no doubt about it that valleyguy spoils me though, so when the weather turns cold, he will fill my car up for me.
14 If you suddenly found yourself in a Bad Situation...and, I mean a REAL Bad Spot...and you were allowed ONE Phone Call to anyone anywhere...who are you calling? valleyguy, who is my personal Superman.
15 As always...what is The Kindest thing anyone did or said to you, or for you...over the weekend? We attended a family reunion in Ohio on the weekend and everyone told me how happy they were to see me and how great I was looking. My brother and his wife treated us to dinner at a lovely restaurant, and the cousin who hosted the shindig fed us the rest of the weekend ... and if you ever saw my big, strong Superman eat, you would know how kind that is!
SUPER-HARD Bonus Question That I Bet NOBODY Gets HA HA!!! (And yes, its a legit question, lol):

2 Have you ever gotten up and walked out of a restaurant??? If so, Why?! - What happened?
Just once. My husband and I sat for almost 30 minutes waiting for someone to come over. Not one waiter or waitress ever came over even after we asked the manager who our server was. We sat there chatting with our closed menu's in front of us until we just gave up and left.

I love making People Chow at Christmas. I never make it any other time of the year. I'm so over making filled cream cheese cookies for the holidays. It's a ton of work and yields very few cookies.

15 As always...what is The Kindest thing anyone did or said to you, or for you...over the weekend? Sadly, not a thing. Actually that's not true. I got a big gooey hug from my son the other morning with an I Love You Mommy that made me melt. And one of my best friends offered to take my kids overnight. My weekend was filled by going back and forth to a hospital. My husband had emergency surgery on Saturday. He's feeling much better, but I'm completely let down by certain people in my family who just complained mightily about helping me out.

Instead of talking about the show she only wanted to know if she'd see me at bowling - sweet.
Do you know what time it was when they met out in the street? I'm going with twelve noon!
