Meet Me On Monday - 10/04

Welcome to the 17th edition of
"Meet Me On Monday!"






For me this is my second round on the Meet Me On Monday blog hop, and I just had a ball! I was able to learn new things about some wonderful bloggers. I am really looking forward to this time around. Java at Never Growing Old came up with this fab way to get to know a little something about each other. :) What a doll. Here is a run down from Java:



Blogging is a funny thing...we tell our most intimate thoughts for all to read and yet most of the time I find myself sitting and wondering, "who is this person!?" I know them...but yet I don't know them! I want to know who the person is behind all those words so I thought of a great way for all of us to "meet" each other!

Every Sunday I will post five get to know you questions that you can copy and paste into your own Monday post and we can all learn a little more about each and every one of us!!




Questions:

1. What is the best dish you can make?

This took some thinking. I would have to say that my best dish is roast chicken with lemons. I found this recipe one day, and I make it at least once a month. It is ridiculously easy to make, looks gorgeous, and I can use the leftovers to make several different meals (example garlic chicken lettuce wraps, chicken and black bean quesadillas, chicken enchiladas, chicken salad and more) for my family. After the first meal, I literally pull off all the meat and use the carcass to make my own chicken stock (a real money saver).

2. How often do you change your sheets?

I would say we change our sheets every two weeks. The key is to not make your bed immediately after getting up. It allows the bed to air out and not reek. What a dorky tip! Truly though we do wait two weeks. That is unless my cat hurls on the bed. He is a cute but weird cat that only feels safe when hurling on carpet or bedding. Yep...what a dear. ;)


3. What is the longest car trip you have ever taken?

In one sitting? Because I have driven cross-country. That of course took a while. We often spent summers driving across the country doing the whole Griswold thing. :) I have had long commutes. I used to drive from my old job at the casino and it would take about an hour and a half. I also used to drive to Maine a lot when I lived in Rhode Island so my son could visit with family there. That would take about 4 hours. When I see my doctor in California, I drive to stay with my brother and sister-in-law which is about 6 hours. I guess I didn't really need to mention my old commute. :) Okay...take your pick. :)

4. What is your favorite fruit?

Nectarines are by far my faves. I love when they are just so ripe that you are pretty much wearing them as well as eating them. Strawberries rock too. I think I love all fruit for the most part.

5. Would you rather have breakfast for dinner or dinner for breakfast?

Now that I am no longer in college. I would prefer breakfast for breakfast, lunch or dinner. I really would rather stay away from dinner for breakfast which in my college years amounted to cold pizza or leftover lasagna. By the way, I pretty much rock at making lasagna too. Just tossing that out there fore ya! :)

Let's face it, no one can top the Griswold's trip! LOL
I agree about the sheets. I let mine air, and sometimes spray fabreeze if I can't get them washed when it's time. I'm clean when I go to bed, and some weeks, it's just hard to find time to do everything.

Hi Kelly,

Sometimes food are quiet tricky...As they have some magic to seduce you to have a bite on them...Although when i sleep i think of them...

Glad to hear that you do your sheet every other week, me too!
I still love cold pizza in the morning. Have a great week.

Hi, Durian is the best fruit but if you have a high blood pressure or a heart problems, or if you couldn't stand the smell, I suggest you not to eat Durian^^

Anyway, I never eat Nectarines before. I would try it someday.

I am your new follower and thank you for stopping by my blog.

I like your tip... Makes me feel like waiting to pull my bed together is a GOOD thing! HAH!! (Shhh... it's about monthly on my sheets... MY BAD!!)

I agree on the breakfast! (((HUGS)))

Hmmmm the best dish I can make. I'd have to say spaghetti and meatballs. I love my meatballs with a subtle taste of almost burnt garlic.

Change sheets once a week.

Longest car trip was from Long Island to Virginia Beach. I've flown everywhere else.

I love almost all fruit but I'd say my favorite would be bananas.

I enjoy breakfast for dinner at times, especially in winter

LOL.... my bed stays aired out all the time. I hardly ever make our bed. We're just going to get back in it so what's the point. :o)
