Question Game

[Rose]

One of the chocolate turtles that my daughter brought home for a party we had. That was last night. I have not had breakfast yet.


Dark chocolate, White chocolate or Milk chocolate??????

[MaggieM1750]

Will I loose my "girl card" when I say none for me on the whole chocolate thing? I don't mind chocolate, milk chocolate usually, but it would never be in a top 5 flavor choice for me. I know there are people who are ga ga for any chocolate they can get their hands on- but thats never been me. So, that means there is more for the rest of you! That being said, you Brits do have much better chocolate than we Americans have. Its creamier, smoother, better. I can easily notice the difference and I am not a chocolate fan.

Back to music in the car.. when you're alone.. do you sing along? Or have you ever caught yourself singing along when on public transport?

[french cat]

Singalong, looking stupid at traffic lights !!!!!!


Long hair or short hair ?

[Tia]

I have long hair.

Would you rather make a snowman or a snow angel?

[Nachstenliebe]

Snowman.. I looove snowmen

What is your favorite game to play?

Do you have a holiday tradition that you are going to pass on to your kids/or have already passed on?

[Lessa54]

A boxing day pie!

Ok, that'll make no sense to anyone It's not something to eat, it's a tradition started by my grandma who felt that Boxing day (in UK traditionally a day when you gave a tip to your postman in a box, otherwise St Stephen's Day) always seemed a bit flat after the excitement of opening Christmas presents. So she came up with an idea for a large box covered in tissue paper. In the box is a present for each person, which has a string attached to it with their name on it. The strings come through the paper lid and everyone has to find their string and all pull at once. Then you have one more pressie to open

What's the most unusual souvenir you've been given/brought back from a holiday?

[Mabel Figworthy]

A yellow dress from a charity shop in Tunbridge Wells when I was doing a Homes and Gardens Tour with my Mum and two Aunts

What do you use a biscornu for?

[MaggieM1750]

Well, nothing yet. I gave my mother some patterns and she is stitching some up right now. She will stitch the design, I will stitch it together. I plan to make it into a scented sachet with lavender. The fabric I bought her is a light tan and she is using a blue verigated thread. I think she will hang it from a lamp in her bedroom.

What are your plans for this weekend?

[Mabel Figworthy]

DH and youngest will be trialling in the vintage Austin, so I've got Saturday to myself -- and I'll be spending it making up 30 kits for the Christmas Craft Event while watching the speedskating!

Car or public transport?

[Rose]

My own car as I live in the country and there is no access to public tranport.



Do you do your own car servicing or do you take it to a garage?

[Tia]

Take it to the garage.

You are in no hurry, do you fly or take the train?

[Nachstenliebe]

Personally out of the two I'd like to drive... but if I had to fly or take a train it would be a train...


What time do you usually get up at on the weekend?
Faith

[Rose]

Same time as on a work day my internal clock is set for 7 so that is when I wake up and once I am awake I have to get out of bed, I can't just lie about.



Do you share your ice cream cones with your animals?

Anytime I get a cone the animals are all right there wanting their share so I give them each a couple licks. All my friends say this is disgusting but I have done it for years.

[Tia]

No I wouldn't, personally. But they say our mouths are a lot 'dirtier'.

Have you ever see the aurora borealis?

[Rose]

Oh yes and it can be fantastic. When we still lived in Montana you could see it from their during the winter nights. It could just light up the whole northern sky. Couldn't see the colors as dramatically as the pictures you see but still an awesome site.



Do you reuse the floss that you have to more then once or do you throw it out and start with a new piece?

Personally if it gets frogged more then twice I get a new piece of thread.

[maggs]

I tend to throw it, as I did tonight, i'm sure it was jinked.

Do you prefer Dr Who or Star Trek

[Charmed]

Doctor Who, definately!!! Looking forward to the Christmas special this year!

Day person or night person?

[Rose]

Both I guess as I can't ly in bed in the morning when I wake up usually around 7 am and I don't go to bed until 12am. I need little sleep unless I am sick.



Do you add anything to your hot cocoa? Marshmallows? Whip Cream? Chocolate Dribble?

[Nachstenliebe]

If we have marshmallows I add them... mmmmmm
