FRIDAY'S FEAST

* * ~ * *Look at this sweet Birthday Blog from my friend, Carol!!! Thank you dear lady. :o)

Appetizer - Have you been sick yet this winter? If so, what did you come down with?

A NASTY cold. One that still lingers with a cough. And 24 hour flu. That too was nasty....I will refrain from any description as it wouldn't make the feast very pretty!!

Soup - What colors dominate your closet?

I tend to go with the cool colors --cool as opposed to warm colors. Purples, blues, blacks and greens, and the warm color I normally buy is pink --all shades of pinks. ---Oh and denim blue!!

Salad - How would you describe your personal "comfort zone"?

To me a 'comfort zone' is something that is a 'mental boundary'. But, again, for me, that wouldn't be a measurement or distance. My mental boundary would be a feeling. I could say I don't like to be around people that are close, or a place that is crowded. But that would be a lie. Yet, I LOVE being alone. And again, it's not a measured distance like someone breathing down my neck, it's 'measuring' MY OWN little world, and where I'm most comfortable and relaxed...........

A long lazy day at the beach. Summer, Winter, Autumn and Springtime!! A lazy day with a good book, either shorts [if it's summer] or sweats [if it's winter], by myself in my own reverie, with quiet---no city traffic and noise of the everyday life---yep, by myself, with the sun beating down on the sparkling water, the 'swish' of the waves washing ashore---gulls singing to me. Or, if it's stormy and I'm not able to be in my first comfort zone--- staying home, having the house super cleaned and the job done.....then, lazing around[I actually like it when I can stretch out on the floor and do absolutely nothing but....] be with my comfort foods and watching a movie marathon with popcorn and a diet coke.

And one thing I can't tolerate, and correct them, is when some stranger or perhaps like a salesperson calls me "honey" or "sweetie"....they're not!!!!

Main Course - On which reality show would you really like to be a contestant?

Absolutely NONE!! Personally, I think the entertainment field of television is and has been for years....OVER-SATURATED with prime-time reality shows!!! To me they're degrading to us humans, they are NOT entertaining, and if you ask me--------insipid! I secretly hope that soon, as in yesterday, the TV stations will realize that people would prefer more intelligent programming.

Dessert - Which holiday would you consider to be your favorite?

I love 'em all! Probably equally, in terms of what day is celebrated at a given time of year.. Halloween isn't really a 'holiday' in the means of 'day off work' holiday. But that would be my favorite day of the year....I love the children's costumes, the decor of my home, the colors associated with the day. All other holidays are more or less holidays for decorations for me any more since all my immediate family lives in distant states so there's no celebrating with huge get togethers. Having the spirit of whichever day it is...Christmas, Easter, St. Patrick's Day, Independence Day--you name it....as I love to have my home all 'decked out' for the day's festivities!! So, I couldn't chose a favorite, really....I could tell you my LEAST favorite, and that would be New Year's Day.
