Friday 5: Tastes

1. What’s too spicy for your tastes? Not much, unless it actually hurts my tongue.
   
2. What’s too sweet for your tastes? Any drink with even a drop of sugar. And any sweets that have more sugar than fat.
   
3. What’s too salty for your tastes? Most pre-packaged food has too much salt and not enough flavor for me. Stuff like Rice-a-roni and Kraft mac&cheese...
   
4. What’s too bitter for your tastes? Hmmm... when I crack open a pecan and can't separate out the little part of the shell that gets stuck in the wrinkles of the nut... that's so bitter, it ruins the nut.
   
5. What’s too sour for your tastes? Nothing. I've been eating the tart cherries right off the tree to see if they're ripe. When they're not quite ripe, it puckers me right up, but I still like them.
   

Friday 5: Needles

These questions come from

1. When was the last time you had a needle stuck into you?
   Last October, for surgery, I had more needles stuck into me than I can count.
   
2. Who among your friends is the easiest target for needling?
   Katie... just say "bathroom door".
3. What’s something you can confidently do with a needle and thread?
   Cross-stitch
   
4. About how many phonograph records do you have in your home, and when’s the last time you dropped a needle on one?
   We have at least 50 vinyl albums. I think I listened to one a month or two ago, but Hubby listens to them more often.
   
5. Someone told us the other day about someone at a party using a flavor injector to spike a watermelon with vodka. Is this brilliant or is this stupid?
   On the scale of brilliant to stupid, it's average. If the party were a little kid's birthday party, then I'd call it stupid.
