I had one older brother who died when he was 45 years old. I also have two stepsisters and a stepbrother who aren't biologically related to me, but we were raised together.
How many brothers and sisters do you have?

2 brothers, Timothy is 43 and is a psychologist in Texas, and John died from muscular distrophy at age 17.
Are you close to any of your cousins?

No, I have a lot of cousins (15, of whom 14 are still living, plus their children, grandchldren and great-grandchildren). We are on friendly terms but not especially close.
Do you enjoy cooking or is it just a chore?

|

Post by annavandenhazel on Oct 1, 2011 7:40:26 GMT -6
Depends on what I'm cooking and how I'm feeling. I enjoy cooking some things but others are a chore.
Do you like to make desserts?
|
|
|
|
Post by Midge on Oct 2, 2011 3:56:17 GMT -6
Yes, that's my favorite thing to make.
Do you have a fireplace?
|
|
|
|
Post by annavandenhazel on Oct 2, 2011 21:30:34 GMT -6
No, and it's probably a good thing - I don't have time to take care of it.
Do you have a dishwasher?
|
|
|
|
Post by Midge on Oct 3, 2011 18:56:16 GMT -6
Yes, but it's almost 25 years old and on its last legs.
Do you eat the cake first or the frosting (icing)?
|
|
|
|
Post by annavandenhazel on Oct 3, 2011 19:03:38 GMT -6
I try to give equal treatment, but it depends on how yummy the cake itself is.  Do you eat the middles out of Oreos first? |
|
|
|
Post by dvdjunkie on Oct 5, 2011 7:38:33 GMT -6
Sure!!! Is there any other way to eat Oreos???
Do you ever eat dessert before the main course of your meal?
|

|

Sometimes - I just returned from Sizzler (steak & salad bar restaurant), and the first thing I ate there was a brownie. The person below me hates to eat vegetables. |

Post by Midge on Oct 6, 2011 3:19:05 GMT -6
Not true at all, I love vegetables.
When did you last splurge and treat yourself to something nice?
|
|
|
|
Post by dvdjunkie on Oct 6, 2011 8:19:37 GMT -6
Yesterday. I bought "The Lion King" on Blu-ray and really couldn't afford it, but the family loves that movie and the hi-definition makes this even more enjoyable.
Do you ever 'make' time to do something for yourself?
|
|
|
|
Post by Midge on Oct 6, 2011 17:46:42 GMT -6
No, not as much as I ought to.
Have you ever been to an air show?
|
|
|
|
Post by annavandenhazel on Oct 6, 2011 18:25:11 GMT -6
No airshows for me.
Have you ever ridden on AMTRAK?
|
|
|
|
Post by dvdjunkie on Oct 7, 2011 15:43:40 GMT -6
NOPE!!! Never ridden on a train, except those little ones at the fair.
Have you been to Disneyland, or Disney World in the past year?
|
|
|
|
Post by Midge on Oct 8, 2011 3:10:49 GMT -6
No, not in the past year, but I have ridden Amtrak.  Did you go to any amusement parks last summer? |
|
|
|
Post by Roger Thornhill on Oct 9, 2011 17:05:56 GMT -6
No I didn't, that's because I don't find amusement parks amusing.  Have you played tenpin bowls this year? |
|
|
|
Post by Midge on Oct 9, 2011 18:12:43 GMT -6
"Tenpin bowls?" What's that?  I guess the answer is no. Sounds something like bowling, which I haven't done this year either. Did you watch any sports on television today? |
|
|
|
Post by annavandenhazel on Oct 11, 2011 9:15:26 GMT -6
No, I don't ever watch sports if I can help it.  Did you watch cartoons on television today? |
|
|
|
Post by Midge on Oct 11, 2011 17:07:16 GMT -6
No, I haven't turned on the television yet.
Did you pay any bills today?
|
|
|
|
Post by annavandenhazel on Oct 11, 2011 20:25:00 GMT -6
Nope, I won't do that until tomorrow.
Did you go to any store today?
|
|
|
|
Post by Midge on Oct 11, 2011 21:12:41 GMT -6
No, I went out to a restaurant but didn't go to any stores.
Is there a birthday or other special occasion happening this month?
|
|
|
|
Post by annavandenhazel on Oct 13, 2011 12:10:20 GMT -6
Sort of - I can't remember what day my sister-in-law's birthday is but I know it's in October.
Do you still celebrate your anniversary?
|
|
|
|
Post by Midge on Oct 13, 2011 14:31:02 GMT -6
Yes, our 25th is coming up this month.
Do you ever make hot cereal for breakfast?
|
|
|
|
Post by annavandenhazel on Oct 14, 2011 10:47:24 GMT -6
Yes, but not very often.
Do you eat cold cereal for breakfast?
|
|
|
|
Post by Midge on Oct 15, 2011 4:13:16 GMT -6
Yes, almost every day.
Are you having pancakes or waffles this weekend?
|
|
|
|
Post by annavandenhazel on Oct 15, 2011 18:26:20 GMT -6
Neither, unless my husband decides to make them. What are you having for lunch tomorrow? |
|
|
|
Post by Midge on Oct 16, 2011 4:02:10 GMT -6
I usually don't eat lunch because I have a late breakfast and an early dinner. I might have a snack, though -- most likely something along the lines of peanut butter on a rice cake.
Have you been following the baseball playoffs?
|
|
|
|
Post by dvdjunkie on Oct 16, 2011 15:20:53 GMT -6
Yes. It's the only time I pay any attention to Baseball. Want to see Texas (who already is in) and St. Louis meet in the World Series. That would be fun.
Is your favorite team watching at home or involved in the playoffs?
|
|
|
|
Post by annavandenhazel on Oct 16, 2011 15:22:55 GMT -6
I don't have a favorite team so neither.
Who is your favorite football team?
|
|
I guess the answer is no. Sounds something like bowling, which I haven't done this year either.
