Any fun plans for the weekend?

[Trinkets]

Well, first I'm going to drink a bottle of wine. Yes, me. Entire bottle. Maybe. My dermatologist had to freeze seven spots on my face. I don't like pain killers because I like wine:) or is it whine?! Anyway, tomorrow I need to work some and Sunday we're having some friends over for shooting clays, fishing in the pond followed by a dinner of boiled shrimp and crawfish, fried fish we catch, French potato salad, hushpuppies and cold slaw. Yum!

How about you? What are you doing this weekend?

[Junebug]

My husband was out of town this week and he's home, soI know I'll be doing laundry! I have several different projects around the house i will probably be working on. And maybe relaxing and catching up on some tv. or go to the movie if anything good is on.

Can you tell me a few books that you have read more than once?

[Kat's Mom]

These days I seldom revisit a book since there are so many new ones I want to read. The only one that comes to mind is "To Kill A Mockingbird"; I have always adored that book and would happily read it again.

Do you have a library card?

[pammyowl]

Yes, couldn't do without it!

Do you like to camp?

[Karen Elizabeth]

I dont know ... it didnt appeal to me when I was young, I might be more relaxed about it now, but the opportunity hasnt arisen



What would make for dinner for an unexpected guest, when you'd been working all day and had to rely on your pantry/fridge?

[Junebug]

Well I usually always have stuff on hand to make tacos. Or grilled cheese sandwiches and homemade soup. Or cream peas, baked taters, chicken and salad or quiche, fruit salad and cheese biscuits. It would depend on who it was as to what I choose to make.

What one entree do you find yourself cooking most often?



TRINKETS...I hope that bottle of wine did the trick!

[Trinkets]

I fell asleep before consuming the entire bottle! HA. I would not make a good drunk!

I always have a roasted chicken as my fallback-almost-always entree.

Do you have an i-phone?

[Junebug]

Yes, my DH is icrazy! I have the iphone5

What kind of cell phone do you have?

[Karen Elizabeth]

A Nokia E63, I get my sons old phones when he upgrades


are you on a phone contract?

[pammyowl]

Nope, I just have the cheap,pay as you go tracfone. I don't use it often enough to warrant a smart phone.

I am finally going to Alaska this year, a lifelong dream. Do you have someplace you have been dreaming of going for a long time?

[Karen Elizabeth]

pammyowl, how marvellous!!!! I'm so pleased for you! when are you going?



Me, I'd just like to go home (Scotland), I'd really like to go home again, before too long


where is your childhood home and when were you last there?

[pammyowl]

In June. We are going to Denali, Ketchican, Sitka and I don't know where else. Dogsledding, an amphibious boat tour, cooking classes on the boat (it is my first cruise) such fun planned, and believe it or not, all on my friends dime! WOW

I have lived so many different places, I truly don't know which to call home, but I would like to go back to Hawaii.We lived there for four years.

I'd love to go to Scotland, what places do you recommend?

[Karen Elizabeth]

sounds marvellous, pammyowl!!!

Scotland, all depends on how long you have. With a few weeks I'd recommend, everywhere Fly into Glasgow, go up the West Coast, visiting the Highlands and Islands on your way, all the way up to John O'Groats, back down via Inverness and The Spey Valley, (this is mostly for Loch Ness and also the distilleries), cut across and travel down the East Coast, culminating in Edinburgh for a day or so.

with just a few days, rather base yourself in Edinburgh, travel to Pitlochry, visit Loch Lomond, go up to the Spey Valley and up as far as Inverness, back down to Edinburgh.


What would you recommend visitors see in your area of the world?

[pammyowl]

Minnesota has a lot to offer. In fact, it was determined to have the third happiest people in the country, after Hawaii and Colorado. It depends on what you like, Minneapolis/St. Paul both have wonderful museums, many 5 star hotels and restaurants, also great theaters. Great shopping, too.
If you prefer the wilderness, we have the Boundary Waters Canoe Area on the border of Canada, and we have some of the best fishing around. The Land of 10,000 lake is on our licence plates!

Do you consider yourself an outdoorsy type of person?
