Chat at the Farmhouse

I'm going over to meet up with Patrice on the Farmhouse Porch., though the weather is a problem today.


Our thoughts and prayers with all those affected by the horrendous Sandie.  I got up this morning to a lovely fresh day after a very welcome heavy shower of rain during the night. 

This Week's Questions
  1. How are you when there is a storm? My first memories of storms are watching them with grandparents from their front verandah... a good memory and storms don't bother me.
  2. Are you doing anything special in November? No, just all the usual.
  3. Do you wear glasses or contacts? Glasses, have never considered contacts.
  4. Salty snacks or sweets? I still buy a packet of potato chips occasionally, against my better judgment.
  5. Who would you bring to the farm with you for a chat, a tour, or perhaps a visit with Wendell? My husband would love a trip to a farm....  would be lovely to meet Wendell.  I occasionally rode bareback on the farm as a child, and the last time we went riding was at a  forest trail, many years ago.

Blessings.

Hi Jan! I'm usually not bothered by storms either though I very much like to be indoors when it is storming outside!

I buy potato chips for the kids, and have to remind myself it's not for me! LOL! It's sweet that you have pleasant memories of storms with your grandparents. Have a blessed rest of your week.

Hi Jan, so nice of you to stop by my blog. We had some strong winds here in Palmerston North last week.I am not a petite person but I could still feel the wind pushing me back as I tried to get home from a walk. However the weather this week has been great so far. So glad to have seen the last (for now) of miserable wet winter. :)

Who doesn't love potato chips? I remember as a kid how I would get on a really sweet binge followed by lots and lots of salty potato chips. Thankfully I don't do that much these days. But, I do recall how tasty that was. Yum! I think I could go for a Reece's cup and then potato chips about now. Can I blame you for this? lol

I'm so glad you chose to join in on our porch chat. Sorry it took so long for me to visit your blog. I've been participating in a writing project, and getting ready for an open house on our farm. I hope you will join us next week. I usually post in Tuesday morning. I hope you have a very good weekend!
