Bipolar Questions #6

Yum!

Big Island or the Rogue River.

Ever ridden a unicycle?

Nope, used a pogo stick?

tried to use a pogo stick but wasn't very good at it when I was a kid.

Have you run out of anything you need during lockdown?

We've been fortunate in the Northeast and haven't run out of anything yet. I expect a second wave of virus and we'll see how prepared we are.

Would you rather be tall or skinny?

skinny

Do you speak more than one language?

Fluent English and functional French.

Forgot to ask a question.
What does Swiss Char taste like?

I'm not sure what Swiss char is.

Kind of tart to me.

Like yams?

Yes, but sweet potatoes are far more commonly eaten and available in my area. I think some people confuse the two, sometimes. I tend to buy sweet potatoes, not actual yams, but not even that often. I love sweet potato fries, mashed sweet potatoes, sweet potato chips, and the occasional baked sweet potato. I'm not as fond of having them candied. I prefer pumpkin pie over sweet potato pie. My husband is not overly fond of yams or sweet potatoes, except in rare cases (fries, and a mash dish I make with brown butter scallops). They don't really eat them in Czech Republic. Only regular spuds.

Q: Is there something you miss doing because it is no longer nearby to do?

Not really. But I"m still on a pretty tight lockdown so maybe the surprises will come.

Which is worse, filling pill boxes or paying bills?

Paying bills hands down - because there is never enough money. Though I am not a fan of pill boxes either

What's your favorite movie of all time?

Casino Royale or some other good thriller.

Favorite actor?

Tom Hanks

Have you ever had chickens?

Nope. Just cats and doggies.

Do you like cauliflower?

Yes especially with Indian spices.

Ever had pet ducklings?

No, but I would really like some of the, now, please.

Do you ever eat veal?

I have eaten it once- and it's actually quite tasty.

are you a good patient? (like co-operate with the hospital, don't cause trouble, allow them to do the tests they need to do etc).

I am a very good patient now, yes

Do you like pa-sghetti?

it's okay.

not my favorite though

is their anything you had planned this year which you now can't do because of the lockdown

Yes, Seattle to Portland bike ride with 8000 pals.

Do you like hockey?

no.

do you like chocolate coins

No. I don't dislike chocolate, but generally the chocolate coins that are for sale in my area (I think only around certain holidays) are usually lousy quality chocolate. I'm not a chocolate maniac, like most, so to really like it, it has to be really good.

Q: In what way are you unconventional, but not in a bad way?

I don’t have any piercings at all...not even the conventional ear ones.

Favorite flower?

Rose.

What color were Elizabeth Taylor's eyes?
