Random Dozen

1. What is one really fast, know-by-heart "go-to" meal to fix in a pinch?
All my meals are know-by-heart...LOL.
The fastest are my one-pot meals that we mostly have when travelling and often for lunch.
2. What is one item you won't leave home without. (Purse and license do not count.)
I check I have my keys, and I always like to have some throat soothers, though my throat is better than it used to be.
3. Where is one place you never tire of visiting?
Two please...... my adult children.
4. Share one factoid of your family's history.
(A piece of unverified or inaccurate information)..... hmmmm. had to look that word up. You've got me there.
5. Complete this sentence: "Once upon a time I ...."
had a fantastic memory... I remember being able to meet 20 people and then going round the room and introduce them to other newcomers..... now .... sometimes I have to meet a person a few times before I remember their name......LOL

6. If you could win a one year's supply of anything, what would it be?
Well I never take a ticket in anthing, so I'm not likely to win anything.
7. "One quirky thing you may not know about me is ...."
There was a time when we lived aboard that I helped deliver yachts.
8. You have one dollar in your pocket. What will you buy?
That takes some thinking about, one dollar does not buy even two postage stamps.... it will still buy a blank card or a postcard from some of the Variety shops.
9. "One thing that always makes me laugh is ...."
 I always have a good laugh with my walking goup friends.
10. What is one thing you could do today to help yourself reach a personal goal?
Drink more water, I need to lose a bit of weight.
11. What is one thing you could do today to bless someone else?

We gave a 75 minute concert for a seniors group today, hope they were blessed.
