Questions:
1. Have you ever been on a cruise? Yes. I went to the Bahamas when I was a junior in college. It was big fun until I discovered that Tequila shots and a swaying ship DO NOT MIX!
2. What is your favorite way to eat eggs? I love them the way Hubs prepares them--he calls it 'bird in the nest'...kind of a poached egg in a hole cut in a piece of toast.
3. What is your favorite reading material? Hard cover books! I love the way they feel and the way the pages turn.
4. Name all the pets that you have ever had? Mostly dogs. Two Dachshunds, Duke and Duchess; one Schnauzer, Snoopy; one Dalmation, Cleopatra; one Poodle, Jacques; one Golden Retriever, Buddy; one hamster, Chili Bean; one gold fish, Goldie; one Beagle, Bocephus; two cats, Kiki and Jazzy; and our current precious one is a Yorkie Poo named Tucker.
5. Were you ever a girl/boy scout? Yes. I was a Brownie and a Girl Scout; my mom was a Girl Scout Leader (for the teenage girls) and all three of my brothers were boy scouts. But I hated girl scouts because I wanted to be in boy scouts with my brothers-- I thought they had much more fun! (I still think this, especially after two of our girls tried and NOTHING had changed!).
It's amazing how many of us were Brownies/Girl Scouts. And you're right the Boys DO have more fun...I know. I've been a Co-Den Leader for my son as a Cub Scout and an Assistant Scout Master in Boy Scouts. They go on the COOLEST camp-outs. And they get to make Eagle Scout!

I'll have to remember to bring some Dramamine when I go on my cruise. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI miss the Halloween thing myself now that my boys are too old for it. And I live on a road with no sidewalks or street lights, so we don't get trick or treaters. Saves us a ton of money in candy though.
Following you back. I tried to follow last night, but sometimes these blog buttons just won't work right.
ReplyDeleteThanks for vistiting me on my blog today! You are my 100th follower!!!!! Check in again sometime this week, I'm having a giveaway to celebrate 100 blogger friends!
ReplyDeleteYou know I think I have to agree with you about the Girl Scouts! What's up with that anyway???? Nice to know someone else loves dogs too!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Hello, and thanks for visiting me. Be sure and go back to enter the give away...I know how you felt last night...and daughter doesn't even bring the 'grands' by since I moved back two years ago..I did have 12 visitors last night and I enjoyed treating them but it isn't the same, is it.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.

I also love hard cover books. No electronic gadgets for me!
ReplyDeleteBocephus? Really? That name just cracks me up.
I love hard cover books as well!
ReplyDeleteMy mom used to make those eggs when we were little. Yummy!
ReplyDeleteI have so many replies but I cannot figure out how to put that reply thing on my blog. So, for now, thanks so much for your comments! I do read every single one of them and enjoy them.

Trust me--the empty nest years are the best! Almost like being newlyweds again, but you know each other now, so it's even better!
ReplyDeleteI bet the birds in the nest are yummy!! Especially with real butter and really thick bread. I'm on a toasted hamburger bun kick. Honeybunny thinks I'm nuts but he's made them for me for the last three dinners!!
ReplyDeleteI think your blog is so cute! I'm your newest follower! Birds in the nest = DELICIOUS! Especially when they yolk is still runny. Thanks for hopping by my blog, and come check out my meme's I run on Tuesdays and Thursdays. They're a lot of fun! :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't get to participate this week but hope to next Monday and I will answers these too!
