No, I've never watched The Crown. What is the weather doing where you live? Currently it's pouring so hard there's a river running down the street. It's supposed to change to snow and we're expected to get up to 20 inches overnight. yikes!

Do you put on the fireplace on when it is dreary outside? I have an electric one and it sure makes it comfy inside.

Only if it is also cold. Otherwise, it gets too hot in the house.
Have you ever done latchhook?

Yep in the 70's. My mom was a big fan and we made several rugs.
What is or was for dinner tonight?

Chicken cutlets, mashed potatoes and gravy.
Have you ever or do you needlepoint ?
I did for many years. I actually worked in my friends needlepoint store on the weekends for a number of years. I even have a book that I self-publish and still sell to stores across the country.

Yay Mary for having a book ! You’re amazing. I’ve only done cross stitch and crochet.
Do you play games on your phone ? If so, which one ? Me spider and Toy Blast

A little bit of needlepoint but counted cross-stitch - very intricate patterns and pulled needlework and hardanger needlework.
Rain or snow?

Post by mnmloveli on Dec 1, 2020 3:16:06 GMT
quinlove - I do play games on my phone. Usually Crossword Puzzles, Solitaire, Chess or Backgammon. jubejubes - I like snow better than rain as long as I don’t have to go out in it. Do you like marshmallow or whip cream in your Hot Chocolate? I like whip cream. Sometimes marshmallows make it too sweet for me.

Yes, tree is finally decorated.
Have you ever done macrame? I surprised myself and actually have a macrame plant holder again.

Post by slicksister on Dec 1, 2020 17:17:58 GMT
I did macrame in the 70's but not lately. My friends teenage daughter made the cutest macrame valance thingy for her closet. It's so cute. Very bohemian looking.
Have you ever had a star named after you?

Do you like stew?
|
|
|
Post by mnmloveli on Dec 1, 2020 23:32:27 GMT
Yes I like stew. I make a good one but I’m always worried about getting the consistency right; not to thin or thick but thicker than broth.
What do you eat on Christmas Eve ?
My best friends/neighbors, who we spend the eve with, do the Italian 7 Fishes. I’m the problem child and don’t eat any fish at all. She makes me eggplant parmigiana.

We either have Fish tacos or chicken Lettuce cups.
My Christmas tree is primarily red and gold with splashes of turquoise and purple with white lights. What color are your decorations?

Post by quinlove on Dec 2, 2020 2:16:18 GMT
I have a white tree with pastel round ball ornaments, lots of them . Mostly pink. 💗 I’d post a picture of it, but I’m having a real hard time pasting it.
Do you use a computer to post here, or your phone ? I use an iPad.

Do you own a throw blanket?
|

Post by mnmloveli on Dec 2, 2020 3:25:40 GMT
Throw blankets - Yes ! Too many to count. I change them seasonally.
Is your car garaged ? Mine is.

We have two garages, one is too full and the other houses dh's first car, a 1968 Mustang.
How many cars do you own? We have 3 including the car mentioned above.

We have 2 vehicles. A 2001 Cadillac Deville and a 2018 Honda Pilot.
Do you use throw pillows in your living room and do you change them seasonally ?
We do ! I feel it refreshes the room with each season.

We have some that came with the furniture. I don't change them.
Tile, carpet, or hardwood floors?

Post by rymeswithpurple on Dec 2, 2020 15:28:29 GMT
We have carpet and linoleum. #apartmentlife (But I LOVE hardwood floors.)
Do you have any pictures on your walls? We have some items in frames (a picture my grandfather painted, our wedding invitation, and a collage of pictures of us), but nothing on our walls.

Yes. But, I’ve lived in this house 16 years. 3 years ago, I painted and took down a lot of stuff and only put up a few new things that I love.
How long does it take for you to usually fall asleep ? For me it varies, but usually within 30 minutes. If not, I’ll take Tylenol pm.

Post by mnmloveli on Dec 2, 2020 18:37:32 GMT
I usually try and make myself stay-up until I can't keep my eyes open so when I get into bed a fall asleep within 5-15 minutes. I try to play one crossword game and a few Solitaire games on my phone right before bed. That does the trick for me.
Do you keep a physical recipe box or perhaps an App ?
I've kept a recipe box for about 25 years. It contains not only my recipes, but handwritten ones from my Mom and Aunt. I just bought two new oak recipe boxes on Amazon that are amazingly beautiful. Now I've separate food vs desserts; my dessert/cookie recipes were out of control !

Not a recipe box, but I do have a recipe binder. I should go through it though as some recipes I've never even tried and the ones that I do use, I've emailed to myself.
Do you own an electric knife?

Post by mnmloveli on Dec 2, 2020 22:19:37 GMT
No I don’t have an electric knife. Just Cutco knives.
Will you be watching the lighting of the Rockefeller Christmas Tree tonight?
We will. A little different this year, but I’m sure the entertainment will still be great

What is your favorite kind of pizza?
|
|
|
Post by mnmloveli on Dec 3, 2020 1:09:46 GMT
Plain pizza with a think crispy crust but not burned !
What color lights on your Christmas tree 🎄?
White pre-lit lights on ours. We think it shows up ornaments so much better.
