Friday's Feast #155

Appetizer: What is your favorite kind of pie? My Grandma's Strawberry Pie is the best. We have it every Thanksgiving and Christmas!


Soup: Name something that made you smile this week. My children make me smile every day! It makes me smile the most to see them playing well together or taking care of each other!


Salad: What do you do to cool off when the weather is hot and humid? Go swimming in my mom and dad's pool. The kiddos love it too!


Main Course: You receive $1,000 in the mail with a letter that says you can only use the money to redecorate one room in your home. Which room do you pick, and what do you buy to spruce it up? Living room - we need new carpet, but I think I'd rather have hardwoods/fake hardwoods. The walls also need a new coat of paint!


Dessert: Fill in the blank: My _________ says __________, but I __________. My sister says I act ditsy sometimes, but I know that's not true - ha ha!

My kids make me laugh each day too.

I wanted to thank you for stopping by earlier today and saying such kind things about my son and your words of encouragement. I wanted to come and visit you earlier in the evening but time got away with me (the kids wanted me to make popcorn!!)but I will be back tomorrow.

Great feast!!

I don't have babies yet, but I get a smile almost every time I'm around kids. I love their innocence. Great feast!

The Gal Herself said...

Is your Grandma still around to bake those pies? I ask because my Grandma (gone about a decade now) used to make the most absolutely FABULOUS flaky rolls for Thanksgiving, and no one has been able to execute her recipe quite the same way. (Maybe the biscuits just don't taste the same to me cuz I miss her.)

Nichole M said...

Andi said...

Neat...that you have strawberry pie at the holidays. I have just recently started being a fan of strawberry pie. An acquitance had me try a piece that she had almost thawed out....meaning that it was funny as we all still ate it & part of my piece went flying through the air as I tried to cut it with my fork.

JHS said...

Ah, what do sister's know, anyway? :-)

Barb said...

I like hardwood floors, too!

it's true about the children making us smile, laugh...no matter how much they misbehave, sometimes, i think it's even endearing..
