1. If you celebrate Christmas do you have your tree up yet?? What is your favorite decoration?
We do celebrate crimbo, but we are kind of traditional and the tree goes up 12 days before christmas day and comes down 12 days after.
I don't have a fave decoration, but i do enjoy spraying the snow-in-a-can. I hate it when i see houses just covered from top to bottom in christmas tat though.
2. What made you smile this week?
My monthly measurements.
3. Love or hate pumpkin?? What interesting ways do you use it?
Love it, and it's cousin, the nible butternut squash. I have baked with it, roasted it, steamed it and used one as a foot-stool.
4. How would you describe your mood today?
Annoyingly positive and un-put-down-able!
5. Do you have a food/drink that you use to dislike but now really like??
Sprouts
1. If you celebrate Christmas do you have your tree up yet?? What is your favorite decoration? No, not yet. My favorite decoration is my daughter's Russian handmade Christmas stocking - we bought right after we adopted her in 2002.
2. What made you smile this week? My 7 year old son wrote "I love you Mommy" on the backs of his fingers - one word on each finger, like a tattoo.
3. Love or hate pumpkin?? What interesting ways do you use it? Love it, especially in curried sweet potato soup.
4. How would you describe your mood today? Happy!
5. Do you have a food/drink that you use to dislike but now really like?? The only thing I can think of is wine. I used to like beer, but now I hate it!
1. If you celebrate Christmas do you have your tree up yet?? What is your favorite decoration?
Nope, tree is not up yet. Not sure when I'll get to it. My enthusiasm has been lagging these last couple years...but I hope to reverse that this year. Favorite decorations are my hand-made glass icicles and ornaments my kinds have made, plus a few from my own childhood.
2. What made you smile this week?
Um...my dog. He's hilarious and always happy to see me.
3. Love or hate pumpkin?? What interesting ways do you use it?
Like pumpkin, really only had it as pie, but I'd like to try it in new ways, such as a side dish. Open for suggestions!
4. How would you describe your mood today?
Eh....
5. Do you have a food/drink that you use to dislike but now really like??
Used to hate mushrooms, but I love them now. Same with onions, but I still don't care for them too much when raw, with the exception of red onion in a salad.
I have an ongoing love-hate affair with water.
Crave the stuff!
1. If you celebrate Christmas do you have your tree up yet?? What is your favorite decoration?
No the tree goes up the weekend before Christmas. I don't have a favourite at the moment, lost all my favourites when I left the home I gave up.
2. What made you smile this week?
My husband always makes me smile, but at the hospital yesterday there was a gorgeous little boy about 18 months old with the most wonderful giggle, anyone who didn't smile when hearing it must have a stone for a heart.
3. Love or hate pumpkin?? What interesting ways do you use it?
Don't get pumpkin here, tried it on recent holiday, not sure about it.
4. How would you describe your mood today?
Happy, just come back from unexpected visit with my daughter, loved it.
5. Do you have a food/drink that you use to dislike but now really like??
Broccoli
LOVE the Wednesday Questions!!
1. If you celebrate Christmas do you have your tree up yet?? What is your favorite decoration?
As much as I love our tree, we have a kitten in our home this Christmas and I don't trust her with the tree up while we're at work. (she's still chewing...) I don't think it would be fair to lock her away, so no tree this year. We'll decorate our windows and mantle and hang some ornaments from lights etc, but they're not up yet.
2. What made you smile this week?
My kitten, my husband, watching the movie Airplane (in honor of Leslie Neilsen), and my super clean kitchen!
3. Love or hate pumpkin?? What interesting ways do you use it?
LOVE pumpkin. The pumpkin hummus is delicious, and was a hit at a potluck.
4. How would you describe your mood today?
Not bad, not ecstatic...kinda in the middle.
5. Do you have a food/drink that you use to dislike but now really like??
Olives.
