Breakfast

What is the most interesting car you have ever owned and why? That would have to be my first car a Chevet I bought from my brother Kevin. I paid for it while I was working as a nanny. When I returned from my venture I owned a car! It wasn't the best looking car, yet it was reliable transportation!! The Chevet took me to collage and came with me into marriage and was the vehicle that transported me to the hospital to deliver our first two children!! I eventually sold it back to my family and my two teenage brothers drove it until the floor boards rusted out!!

Lunch
What book are you currently reading? NONE! Which isn't typical for me! I have read four books since Christmas! "A distant Thunder" and "Winds of hope" by Anita Standsfield one of my favorite Authors. "The Last Lecture" A must read for everyone, I totally love this book and plan on reading it several more times......... I told my children that it was a required read for this year!! The fourth book was one of the funnest stories I have ever read "Enchanted" by Orson Scott Card. I am currently looking for my next book!


Dinner
Did you have any pets growing up? I grew up on a Ranch so I had several. We always had a dog, and a cat and usually more that one. I had a pet calf I named "Two Tails", I helped my dad deliver her, shortly after her mother died. Another cow had a calf that died so my dad cut the hide off the dead calf and sewed in onto the calf who's mother died so that she would have the scent of the calf that died and the mother cow, who's calf that died would pick up her scent and accept her new calf...........confused? Anyway that is how it ended up with the name "Two Tails". I always had a horse to ride, but our horse named "Scar" was my favorite.


Midnight Snack
How do you unwind at night? Usually by reading! I love to have my feet rubbed, or a warm bath when I am round up!

Recipe of the Week (instead of your recipe for life what is it just for the week?
Ring the bells that still can ring,
Forget your perfect offering.
There is a crack in everything.
That's how the light shines in.
