….thanks to Dawn over at Lingering Visions for coming up with this week’s questions and to Cee for hosting Share Your World
Do you have a signature dish? If not is their one in your family?
My signature dish changes every couple of years. Right now I’d have to say that my go to dish is a Kale, Pomegranate, Walnut and Feta Cheese salad. The recipe calls for wild rice as well but I change it up with Israeli couscous or faro and if I don’t have walnuts I might add another variety of nut.
Do you have a favorite board game?
I think my favourite classic board game is Scrabble and my favourite new game is Ticket to Ride.
Is there a household chore that you enjoy?
I’d have to say No! But wait I don’t hate all chores. I enjoy baking and some cooking and I don’t mind doing laundry.
What is one thing you will never care about?
One thing I will never care about is hockey or American football. These two sports just leave me cold. Too much fighting and physical contact for my liking.
Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?
Last week I’m grateful for two very different Christmas parties that I attended. The first one was the staff party and it was good to see so many from the staff turn out. It was fun and festive and it looked like everyone was having a lot of fun. The second party took place on Saturday and it was a very quiet affair with just a few good friends. Every year now my good friend L has the same group over for dinner. it was so relaxing and the food was outstanding. With her mom and daughter joining us there were seven of us around the table….the perfect size for good conversation.
This week I’m looking forward to Christmas and time spent with family and close friends. My son and his fiancé are arriving from London, England on Christmas Eve. Our big celebration is on the 24th and then we also do a Christmas dinner on the 25th. Boxing Day will be a day of rest and then the day after we will pack up two cars and all of my family will drive to Oshawa to visit with my Dad and G.
Wishing all my blogging followers a very Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukka. Be safe and enjoy your family and friends during this festive season.

The two sports I really don’t care about is boxing and wrestling for the same reasons you stated. Thanks for sharing.

I’m with you on boxing and professional wrestling. I’m sure I could come up with a few more things that I don’t care about.

Your post made me hungry, and it after midnight – not a good time to eat, and none of those signature items in my refrigerator. Have a merry holiday season. 🙂

I hope you were able to resist eating after midnight. I’m sure that there’s going to be lots of food in the next few days and then we’re all going to be cutting back and trying to lose those extra pounds that creep up during the holidays. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and all the best in the New Year. Carol
