Friday's Feast #4

Appetizer What is your favorite carnival/amusement park ride? I have never been one for amusement parks or carnivals because I don't like being in crowds. However, the few times I did go, I would always gravitate towards the roller coasters. The bigger and scarier the better. Soup How do you react in uncomfortable social situations? I tend to become very quiet . I am a very shy and nervous person. Salad On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how much do you enjoy discussing deep, philosophical topics? I would have to say an 8. That is one of the things I miss about the UU Fellowship that I used to go to. It was lay led so each week one of us would get up there and give a talk on a different philosophical/spiritual topic. Then afterwards there was always a huge discussion on the topic. It was nice since it was a very small setting. It took me a few months before I could really speak out there. After awhile, I was even one of the people get

Friday's Feast #3

Our normal chef host is enjoying the day off after Thanksgiving. So Gattina was nice enough to post a new menu for us this week. Appetizer Imagine that you are deaf, dumb and insensitive to touch.What other image of happiness could you have? I would have to say wonderful smelling flowers and yummy chocolate! Soup Do you collect anything? I collect tarot decks. I stopped counting when I reached 100 decks. That is a rather expensive collection since they are at least $20 each. There is one deck that I would love to get my hands on, but it is hard to find and very very expensive. It's the Salvador Dali deck . Last time I priced it, it was $100. Salad When do you start your Christmas? We tend to start it the morning of. I know alot of people who celebrate Christmas Eve. However, we have always had a huge gathering in the morning. We would open presents and then mom would make a huge breakfast. Main Course What would you do if you were in a corner and a snake was staring

Friday's Feast #2

I wasn't feeling really good last week and missed it. But I managed to be back for this week. Appetizer What was your first “real” job? I worked at the local hospital at the age of 16. I used to deliver the patients to the different areas of the hospital. It was strenuous work, but I loved it. Soup Where would you go if you wanted to spark your creativity? I either go sit in front of the computer or sit in my room. It depends on my mood I guess. Salad Complete this sentence: I am embarrassed when… people are looking at me or I have to speak in front of a group. I love talking and I love writing, but I don't like people looking at me. I guess that is why the internet is so nice. Main Course What values did your parents instill in you? To be truthful and to work hard for what you get Dessert Name 3 fads from your teenage years. Oh man! I was a teenager in the 80s. We had some scary fads! Do I have to limit myself to just 3? 1. Parachute pants. I remember one incid

Appetizer Name a great website you would recommend to others. Since right now, I am focusing mainly on losing weight, I would have to recommend SparkPeople. This site lets you track your weight, measurements, food eaten, exercises done, and much more. Plus they have wonderful groups that provide that extra little bit of morale support. There are some great competitions going on as well. Get a Free Online Diet Soup On a scale of 1-10 (with 10 as highest), how often do you dream at night? I would have to say at least a 7. I tend to have tons of really crazy dreams. When I wake up in the morning, those dreams just make me really confused. Salad Did you have a pet as a child? If so, what kind and what was its name? We had several pets in our house when I was growing up. When I was really young we had a dog named Little Man and a cat named Sneakers. My sister moved out and took Little Man with her. When Little Man impregnated another dog, we got one of the liter. We named that
