Friday's Feast One Hundred Sixty Six

Appetizer
Name a great website you would recommend to others.

One website I enjoy is called Zen Habits. It usually lists 10 great ways to improve your life in some way.

Soup
On a scale of 1-10 (with 10 as highest), how often do you dream at night?
I would say 1. Or perhaps the number is 1 based on my recall of dreams. I don't normally remember dreams -probably because pure exhaustion puts me into deep sleep.

Salad
Did you have a pet as a child? If so, what kind and what was its name?

I had the typical goldfish, hamsters and gerbils. At one point, I had a rabbit and a bird. No dogs or cats. My mom was not really an animal person and I didn't really miss having a dog because my grandmother had one. All that being said, in my heart of hearts, I am not completely certain I want to be a pet owner right now. I think I have secretly decided that I am not truly a pet person at heart. However, Connor happens to love animals and if that brings him into language and connections, than I will learn to be a pet person for him.

Main Course
If you had the chance to star in a commercial, what would you choose to advertise?

I would advertise reading. I would say turn off this crazy tv and grab a good book!

Dessert
What is your favorite kind of hard candy?

I like fireballs. I just wish they would stay fire-flavored right to the end.

Ah, definitely a woman after my own heart - books, reading - can't beat it! I always told my kids - and even my ex agreed with me on this -pick up a book and read cause you can take a trip around the world, several times, through various time spans too and never leave your own house! Best thing ever invented in my opinion!

Well after two crazy cats, Maven and Linus, I can see how you sercretly gave up on pets-

We do share a love of the Hot!

I think you need the right pet, not one of those crazy cats you had.

I loved the web Zen Habits. I have put a shortcut on my desktop. Thanks for the site. As for pets, we can see how Connor does with Whisper when you come to visit. Michael is right, you need the right pet. Maybe one like Cullen , his was unconditional love.

I agree on the pet thing. It's too much work!

Nice feast! I'll check that site out. Hope you had a great weekend!

Wow, you better bring some warm clothes (not related to Friday Feast, just a comment on my blog).

It looks like mid-fifties next week. Talk about cooling off?! :-)
