I am loving life this Christmas season. I have tried really hard to simplify and to keep my stress level low by concentrating my focus on the Christ in Christmas. I am picking and choosing my activities and making sure that while I do a smattering of Christmassy things I keep those activities under control so that I can still live normal life… like answering these weekly questions! 🙂
- Your most favorite fiction book? I love so many books. I’m a big fantasy reader and I think one of my favorite series was the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant by Stephen Donaldson. Currently though I am loving John Jakes American Dreams.
- What one thing you miss about being a kid? When I was little my friends and I used to run through the woods behind my house pretending we were superheroes. My life doesn’t give me much time to pretend these days. I miss that.
- If you were an ice cream cone how many scoops and flavors would you be and why? I would be a large orange pineapple ice cream cone because right now I am wicked hungry!
- What was one of your first moneymaking jobs (other than babysitting or newspaper delivery)? My dad owned a restaurant. I learned how to operate the dishwasher by the time I was ten. Aside from my paper route I worked as a dishwasher from the time I was fifteen. I started waiting tables when I was seventeen and by eighteen I was short ordering. I still love to cook.

And merry Christmas right back at you! If I am ever on the West Coast for Christmas perhaps I can come cook for you!
We learn more about you every week.
It is soooooooooooooo hot and humid here that orange/pineapple ice cream sounds refreshing, but would be even better if it was a water ice.
(I see you don’t have snow falling on your site. It would look so cool on the dark colours)
The snow falling idea is so cool. How would I go about doing that?
I’ve just been looking but can’t find it. There was something in my dashboard – somewhere – but it isn’t there now, possibly because I activated it. Have a look through your dashboard. If I could find it, I’m sure you can. Sorry I can’t help more.
Thanks for the info Angela I shall have a gander!
I think it was probably under the ‘what’s hot’ at the bottom left of the dashboard, but it isn’t on mine because I activated it.
