    Nimrodel's Questions
1. Do you play a sport?  Is there a sport you want to learn?
  No I do not play a sport...unless you call wrangling your younger siblings a sport.  Then yes I do....and I'm quite proficient at it as well!!

  There are several sports I would like to learn.  Tae Kwan Do.  Archery.  Skiing.   Fencing.  (No Fawna, I am not coping you!)  The first for self-defense, the others for amusement.

2. Sunrise or Sunset?  Why?
  It's hard to chose!  Watching the world come to life is so much fun, but watching the Sun sink lower and lower and paint colors that know one else can, is amazing as well.

3. What was your dream job as a little kid?
  Ooooo.  You know, I don't really know!  I didn't really have one.

4. What was that last movie you watched that you really liked?
  Movie?  The last movie I watched that I really liked, would ahve to be Prince Caspian which I watch in July.

5. What songs are stuck in your head?
  SHINee ~ Fly High.  From the OST of a k-drama I have not seen.
  Ooo-de-lally ~ Disney's Robin Hood.  Can you sing it with your tongue touching the roof of your mouth the whole time?
  Celtic Woman ~ Santa Claus is Coming to Town.  Because I was listening to Christmas music and  heard that song, and then last night Melody said something about making lists.....

6. What is something that makes you feel nostalgic?
  Candlelight.  Canning in the Autumn.

7. If you were granted an extra hour to be added to your day (so you have 25 hours) what would you spend the hour doing?
  Probably reading or catching up with friends.

8. What is one of the most embarrassing moments you are willing to share?
  One time we were at a stamping party and one of my older sister's friends was wearing these bright red glittery flats.  She said how someone told her, "Those make me think of Dorothy", I thought she said "dorky" and so I said "I don't think they are dorky!".  Then she repeated herself.  At 11-12 I found it pretty embarrassing!

9. If you could customize your car license plate (for most U.S. readers, that means picking any combanation of 5-7 numbers or letters) what would you like your license plate to say?
  41104ME  A reference to my favorite Bible verse, Isaiah 41:10.

10. Rivers, lakes, streams, ponds or the ocean?
  They are all so much fun!!  But if I had to have one on or adjoining my property, I would choose a lake or large pond.  Then I could go skating on it in the winter, and swimming and boating in the summer.



  Fawnabelle's Questions

1. What is your favorite thing about fall?
  The nippy wind blowing in your face.  The gorgeous colors that paint the mountainside.  The honk of geese as they head south.

2. How do you eat a cupcake? (Trust me, there are several ways...)
  In public, I peel the wrapper away and eat it daintily trying not to get frosting on my nose.  In private, I usually take the wrapper all the way off, turn it upside down, and eat it from the bottom down saving the frosting for the end.

3. How do you prefer your cookies?  Crispy?  Gooey?  Half-baked?  RAW?!
  Crisp or gooey, depending on the type.

4.  Is there a traditional food and/or dessert that your family makes for the holidays?  What is it?  (Can I have the recipe?)
  Well, I try to make Pumpkin Chocolate Chip bread every season.

5. What is your favorite soup?
  Does thick, chunky Stew (my specialty) count?  Otherwise, Sour Cream Potato Chive Soup.

6. What do you eat for breakfast during the holidays?  Anything special?
  Well this year we started having special breakfasts of Ice Cream and another dessert (doughnuts, pudding pie, fruit bars, cheesecake bars, etc.) on Half-Birthdays, but during the Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Year holiday season, no, we don't really.  Oh wait, we do on Christmas morning.  We have pancakes with maple syrup.  (Drenched in it in my case!)

7. Do you carve out your pumpkins to decorate your porch during Halloween time?
  Nope.  We don't celebrate Halloween.

8.  Are you excited to eat all the delicious foods waiting for us in these coming winter months?!
  YES!!  For the second year in a row, we are going to make November a 'Pumpkin Month' where we make a pumpkin dish (dessert or other) every day!!

9.  Does it snow where you live?  About how much snow do you get?
  Yes.  We generally get an average of 2 ft. of snow every winter.  Some years we get more.

10. Do you make your hot cocoa special?  Any extra marshmallows or whipped cream?  Powdered cinnamon?!  Does anyone drink champurrado?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
  Yes.  Yes.  No.  No.  For Hot Cocoa, I like to drink Blue Diamond Chocolate Almond Milk heated with Caramel Sauce and Guittard's White Chocolate (melted in a little cream) mix in and Whipped Cream on top.
