You know me - I truly don't like to miss a meme. Thank you sweet Ella for this one.
Name a tender song
that can almost make you cry.
The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face by
Roberta Flack. Tom and I were in bed the first time I ever heard it. I started
crying then and nearly every time I’ve heard it since.
What is your
favorite shade of lipstick? What about nail polish? If
you do not
wear lipstick or polish, what do you like or dislike about the shades you see
others wear?
I like more pastel shades for nail polish
these days, occasionally with a design. Usually my lipstick is a lighter shade
these days unless we’re going somewhere fancy.
Name a children's
nursery rhyme or song that you loved and to which you remember all the words.
I actively try to remember nothing from my
childhood. I plan on learning them all when I’m, hopefully, blessed with
grandchildren.
What outfit would
you put on in the morning if you wanted to feel happy and well dressed?
Something in which you think you look pretty damn good!
Tom likes me in full skirts (wonder why). I
have one that is a flower print with a matching peach color blouse. I love the
look in Tom’s eyes when I wear it.
If you had enough
money to buy just one, would it be a cottage by the ocean or a cabin in the
mountains?
The beach! I want the sand the surf the
seafood – I want it all.
If you are old
enough, which one of the Beatles did you have a "thing" for? If
you are not that old, tell us a musician that really did it for you.
I loved the Beatles and I would have been
happy with any – or all of them for an evening. Paul is still the best looking
thing.
Name a smell that
you love - could be kitchen, outdoors, person, your choice.
We’ve started sitting around the fire pit
many evenings. I love the smell of the fire. I’ve come to associate it with
family time.
How often do you
defuzz your legs. Wax, razor, or electric?
As often as they need it. I still use a
razor.
How/why did you
choose your blog name?
I didn’t. Oh, those many years ago I barely
knew how to send an email. I ask a friend I’d met on line to fix it so that it
would say ‘Cassie’ when I left a comment. She went ahead and set me up a
blog and she chose the name. What changes in my world that all brought about.
What do you like
to eat for breakfast? To drink? Coffee or tea?
Anything someone else fixes for me! I love
bacon and eggs, I love waffles, I love fruit and muffins. I just love
breakfast. And I must have my coffee!
How many siblings
do you have? Or are you an only child? Are you the oldest, a
middle, or the youngest child?
My mother gave birth to a son before I was
born. There was never a feeling of kinship between us.
What is your
favorite salad dressing?
I like about everything but Blue Cheese.
If you could sit
next to anyone (alive) on a long plane trip, who would you pick?
If it couldn’t be Tom I think I might pick
Ella. She seems to enjoy my stories very much and I feel we’d have a lot to
talk about.
Have you ever gone
shopping just to cheer yourself up?
Heavens yes! Always have, always will.
If there is one
thing that can make you lose your temper, what would it be?
I have no temper, I’m always sweet as an
angel. But I suppose I have been miffed a time or two at Tom’s bossy ways. And
perhaps I’ve been annoyed a time or two from someone hitting on my husband.
Tell us about the
best photograph you have ever had taken.
Allie caught a picture of me the moment I heard Tom car pull in after he'd been gone for two days. It's the happiest looks I've ever seen. Tom loves it too.
Have you ever gone
skinny-dipping and where?
You name it and I’ve probably skinny-dipped
there!
What do you like
on your pizza? What don't you like on your pizza?
Get me a meat lovers! I’m not fond of green
or red peppers.
