What strategies do you use to maintain your health and well-being? This prompt could also be entitled “How to maintain your sanity” 😀 My list:   a verse each day from the good Book, good worship music that uplfts, a good long walk, and as always, a really really good cup of coffee

What are your future travel plans? Getting out and exploring our new home state of Washington. Taking in some history in the capitol, Olympia. A hike around Mt. Rainier, and at the top of the wish list, heading to the ocean for whale watching.

What would you change about modern society? I would love to have a magic wand so I could go “abracadabra” and make human and child trafficking disappear.  It is abhorrent to me that this occurs and human beings barter and sell another human being. 

What do you listen to while you work? Since I am a retail store manager I am rarely sitting in an office. So I get to listen to endless questions from employees, “delightful” things from customers, the ringing of the phones, and the soothing sounds of the trash compactor and cardboard baler.  🤣

What’s your go-to comfort food? Anything with pasta.  Chicken Alfredo. Macaroni and cheese. Stroganoff,  Rigatoni.  (Funny that this is the prompt as macaroni and cheese with white sauce is what’s for lunch today 😁)

What’s your favorite game (card, board, video, etc.)? Why? I am not a video gamer. My kids have tried patiently to teach me how to play video games and their experiment was an epic fail. 😂. My favorites are Scrabble, checkers and Yahtzee

What foods would you like to make? I love to cook and bake and I love watching people enjoying what I make even more. I would love to spend a day in my kitchen working my way through Guy Fieri’s cookbooks, focusing on some of his burger recipes or trying dishes from his Diners, Drive-InsContinue reading “Cooking and baking are my jam 😁”

Dogs or cats? No winner. It’s a tie.  We have a chocolate lab and two cats, one of whom my kids’ grandpa got for them 18 years ago and Whiskers is still with us.   We love our furry friends.

Which activities make you lose track of time? Curled up on a rainy or snowy day reading a good book Getting lost on a trail in the woods with my camera Cleaning house with the music turned way up loud

What bothers you and why? 1. People who are chronically late.  It shows a lack of discipline, and no courtesy or value of someone else’s time 2. An empty coffee cup.  It just makes life sad 🤣 3. Negative people.  They suck the air out of the world
