I would like to:
A. use one of those cotton candy machines-- move that cardboard cone around in the drum to gather the bundle of spun sugar
B. spray that expanding foam insulation they use on houses
How about you? I was going to add: making my own soft-serve ice cream cone, like at Dairy Queen, but *surely* I've done that at some Jason's Deli or Western Sizzlin' at some point...

StephDRebel has a cotton candy machine. (why can I remember that but have to stop to think about what year my kid was born?)
I'd really like to learn the cello. No idea why, but I think I might teach myself the ukulele first.

I'd really like to learn the cello. I used to pass by a junior high school on the way to work. There was this kid I'd see schlepping his bass or cello. He had it on his back, and he had to lean forward as he trudged along the sidewalk, because it appeared the cased instrument was taller than he was. I remember thinking how devoted to his music that little fellow was. |

i have done both of those. I was at a party with a cotton candy machine, they let us ābuildā our own mound of cotton candy We used the spray foam insulation on a set for band s few years ago. Iāve always thought itād be fun to be a docent somewhere, but I havenāt done it yet. I keep saying someday. Truth is the ācoolā places Iād think itād be fun to be a docent, where Iād already know a lot about the subject, or am very interested in learning a lot about the subject, are no where near where I live. I live in āWashington slept hereā territory and Iām just not that interested in volunteering at one of the hundreds of places George stayed, as interesting as they are to visit once or twice I canāt imagine being there all the time. š |

I have done BOTH of those things! DH bought me a full sized cotton candy machine from someone closing their concessions business. Itās harder than it looks! Apparently my arms are too short to wind the cotton candy on the paper cones unless I stand on a stool, so DH had to do it. And we burned through multiple cans of the spray foam filler stuff to fill the holes the bats were getting in through before we realized we were going to have to tear our lake cabin down. Iāve also made many, many soft serve cones when we went on our cruise vacations. All the ships weāve been on had them. There is also one of those ice cream machines at the Chinese buffet restaurant we go to every couple months. I would like to go in a hot air balloon and I told DD that I would take her with me when I do go. (DH isnāt fond of heights, so heās a no-go on that adventure!) Also on my bucket list is to go on a behind the scenes Disney VIP tour. I think that would be fun. |

Jumping out of a plane, skydiving. Although I'm getting a little old for that now but who knows, I might get a wild hair and try it one of these days. I always thought that flying would be the absolute best feeling in the world and now they have those wing suits. Man, would I love to jump off of a cliff in one of those.

Iād love to be able to tap dance. Given that some days I can barely walk to my car, and that dancing has never been my thing, it just isnāt going to happen.
I would also love to sound a ship's foghorn. I have no idea why.
