Mushrooms
What do you love now, that you hated when you were younger? My parents never cooked with mushrooms. The first time I tried them as an adult, they were on a salad. Raw. Ick! I still do not like to eat raw mushrooms. The second time I tried them, they were cooked on a pizza.…

Do you remember?
What’s your top tip to be successful in life? My top tip is don’t drink or do drugs. I can remember as an older teenager that I liked getting together with friends who liked to party. We always had fun, but the difference between me and them is that I could remember the dancing, fun…

Just be yourself
How do you build loyal subscribers? I don’t write just to get subscribers. Although, I am grateful for each and every one of them. I write because I feel like sharing my thoughts. And, I like to read the authentic thoughts of other bloggers, too.

Have a good REST of your day…. UGH!!
What’s a word or phrase that annoys you? Simply saying, “Have a good day,” (or morning, afternoon, or evening) is the appropriate way to say that phrase. It sounds silly, unprofessional, and like a poor use of the English language to add “…rest of your day…” When what is truly meant by that phrase is…

Plan perfect? Or perfectly plan?
How do you plan the perfect road trip? Most road trips are not perfect. They may be perfectly planned, but they are not always perfect. For instance, when I was two and a half years old, my parents perfectly planned a road trip to Seattle to visit a cousin. It was about a 12-hour drive…

The time will pass, and before long, the new thing will become something that is a part of my understanding…

Your Vote is Your Voice
Do you vote in political elections?

They always voted. And shared their opinions freely. Not forcefully. Somewhat quietly. Let your…

After a Good Night’s Sleep
Anyone who knows me, knows I love mornings. I feel my best, think my best, and work my best at the start of the day. Just last week, I recognized something that I have always felt, but never really realized it until now. I had enjoyed a beautiful mostly productive morning. The time was approaching…

Creatively Speaking
List three books that have had an impact on you. Why? * The Scriptures, because they are how God speaks to me. * The Giving Tree – because that tree gave everything it had because of the love it felt for one person. It reminds me of Christ. He gave all… because of the love…

My Dad
Who would you like to talk to soon? I wish I could talk with my dad. He was so great to talk with. He could talk about anything! I particularly enjoyed our conversations about God, creation, where we came from, and dinosaurs. He was a bit of a deep thinker. I like deep thinkers who…

Photographer
Not a word I ever thought people would use when describing me. It was about 19 years ago when I taught a class of women at church one evening about how to take better pictures with their own cameras. Of course, in doing so, I showed some of my pictures for examples when describing how…
