A good friend sent me an e-mail listing with these questions and her answers. It was fun to learn a little more about her. I was supposed to answer the questions myself and send the e-mail back to her and also to other e-mail friend. I decided it might be better to share these facts with those who read my blog. I'm not a great e-mail correspondent. I changed a few questions because some related to sending out e-mails.
1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? No, my parents made it up.
2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED? Thirty minutes ago. I was watching a special about the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. A very sick ten-year-old girl had requested to meet with a few members of the choir. When she arrived at the hotel, she found the lobby packed with the choir and visitors. Then they sang to her and it was beautiful. And yes, it made me cry.

Chocolate chips in pumpkin cookies are sounding really good to me after reading your blog. Maybe I'll make some. If I do, I'll bring you some. Don't hold your breath tho.
ReplyDeletePeriwinkle - I wished I'd of thought of that. I painted the inside of my family room cupboards periwinkle and I loved it. I'm going to miss those cupboards. I'll have to find something else to paint periwinkle. That is if we ever get to the painting stage. I'm feeling like I'll be starring at 2x4 walls forever.
You mean to tell me that you haven't watched a single movie at home since Transformers? How can you be my mother? (:
ReplyDeleteBook, since you got the idea from me, it seems only fair that I get a cookie.
ReplyDeleteCassie, you're not my daughter. My daughter doesn't cook, decorate cakes, sew, play piano & guitar, etc, etc. Actually, the more you do, the less I do. It's a weird correlation.
Cheers for black sweats and periwinkle!!
ReplyDeleteDid you like Transformers? I've heard mixed reviews of it (not critics, just people I know).
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun list!
