 1. Two of my favorite ingredients in a drink are lemon and ice! Ice water with a touch of lemon is perfect on a warm spring day like this. Or maybe even a tall glass of lemonade . . . Yum!2. The things I encounter at work often amaze me. And not necessarily in a good way.3. You can keep doing that (throwing the ball) forever, the dog is obsessed with playing fetch. 4. Hot water and cocoa powder, mix it all together and voila! You have hot chocolate! 5. If I had a yard with a garden, I would love to grow anything at all that might live longer than a week or so. I have a brown thumb, remember? 6. Steaming hot biscuits are best au naturel. 7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to watching the third episode of The Dresden Files, tomorrow my plans include possibly taking in a movie and Sunday, I want to do a little reading!
 Appetizer What was your favorite cartoon when you were a child? Saturday morning cartoons were always a favorite of mine. My brother and I would wake up early and fight over which cartoons we would watch (He always wanted to watch the Smurfs). We watched a few cartoons during the week, but not many. Sundays were slim pickings for cartoons, but we always managed to find one or two to keep us occupied. My favorite cartoons included Mighty Mouse (I had such a crush on him!), Tom and Jerry, Tweety and Sylvester, Woody Woodpecker, Richie Rich, the Super Friends, and the Flintstones. My eighth grade year, my friend and I were big fans of She-Ra. We used to watch it every morning before catching the bus to go to school. And to think I couldn't think of any when I first came across this question! Soup Pretend you are about to get a new pet. Which animal would you pick, and what would you name it? My first inclination would be to add a new cat to the family, but I do think a dog might be better able to adjust to my motley crew. A lot would depend on the animal's temperament and how he or she gets along with my other animals. My husband and I often joke that we follow the (unintentional) tradition of naming our pets after Buffy the Vampire Slayer's leading men. We still need a Spike and an Angel.
Salad On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how much do you enjoy getting all dressed up for a special occasion? As long as I have something to wear, I enjoy getting dressed up now and then. A lot would depend on what I was getting dressed up for. If it's dinner, I would take casual over fancy any day. If it's a wedding or some other important event, then I'll dress up happily. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would probably say my enjoyment for getting dressed up is about a 6.
Main Course What kind of music do you listen to while you drive? I am a frequent radio channel changer, especially when I am alone in the car (I don't usually flip channels when in the company of others). I go between a couple of country music stations and three rock/pop stations that play a variety of music from oldies on up to more contemporary music.
Dessert When was the last time you bought a clock? And in which room did you put it? I love timepieces. I collect miniature clocks, as a matter of fact. Most are gifts I have received over the years. It has been awhile since I actually bought a clock for myself, and so I could not tell you when that was. I bought a watch last year around this time, I know. I really like watches too.

Isn't it amazing how when we were young, cartoons were such a treat because they only ran pretty much on Sat. mornings?! I think it was TBS or something like that that had the Flintstones on in the afternoon. I was always so excited to watch that and then of course the Addams Family, lol. I remember I loved Captain Cave Man and Rocky and Bullwinkle on Sat. mornings too! Now with all the 24 hour cartoon channels they have, kids just get to watch them whenever they like.
