Chats on the Farmhouse Porch/Tuesday Muse - 06/11/2013



Taking a quick break from my baking to join Nancy for Tuesday Muse and Patrice for Chats on the Farmhouse Porch, which is under the big crabapple tree this week. :)

1.  How many times a week do you have a green or veggie salad?

Two to three times a week. I would like to have them more often but it isn't Jerry's favorite thing. ;)

2.  Do you pray? (You may skip this if you do not wish to answer.)

Hmmm...not in the traditional sense...

3.  What season is your birthday? You do not need to give us the date.

Mid-Winter.

4.  Do you have dinner guests often, every now and then or not at all? Wendell says he can be there for dinner as quick as a wink!

We very, very rarely have dinner guests, like once or twice a year. We do go out to dinner with friends about once a month though.
Wendell, I'm not so sure I could afford to have you stop by for dinner; I have heard you eat like a HORSE!!

5.  Could you describe yourself as a DIY- Do It Yourselfer?

Yes! I absolutely hate to pay someone to do something that I figure I can do myself. Most of the time it works! LOL!!

    We hardly go out to eat here - everything is so far away. I love salad and the spinach is just starting to come in. I don't get it in winter 'cause we won't buy lettuce or greens in the store any longer.

    I love your spice jars! How wonderful! Thankfully, I don't have to worry about anyone else so I can eat my salad every day! I, too, prefer my own lettuce, so it's slim pickings until spring.

    Candy, I had a lot of similar answers to yours.

    I like to have folks over for dinner--nothing fancy, but I like having company.

    And while I like to do things myself, I'm getting to the age where I just can't get to the big projects anymore. We paid painters for the first time EVER. I have to admit it was nice to have them paint our family room with really high ceilings. ;)

    Dinner guests - we rarely have a formal dinner with guests except for holidays but we have many impromptu dinners where people just show up because they know we have a fire either on the courtyard or up at the bonfire. They pull out snacks, meat, etc. It's like the loaves and fishes sometimes! Much more fun than organized dinners.

    We hardly ever have dinner guests - my kitchen is covered with canning stuff all summer long. Ha ha ha!
