The first of the short month hodgepodge is here. Thank you, Joyce!

1. The Winter Olympics kick off on Friday, February 6th…on a scale of 1-10 how excited are you? (1= eh and 10=watching every event all day every day).

I’ll say a 5 as in I’ll enjoy what I stumble upon but I’m not carving out a lot of time to watch.

What’s your favorite Winter Olympic sporting event? 

Ice Skating is probably the favorite but downhill ski events are exciting, too.

The most exciting of all time was the 1980 US Hockey teams defeat of Russia. Then two days later they defeated Finland coming from behind to win the Gold medal in Hockey.  We kept stalling leaving for church to watch that one!

2. In other sporting news, the Super bowl (American football’s championship game) will be played on Sunday, February 8th.

Since you mentioned the Super Bowl, we will be watching this year since our home team, the Seattle Seahawks are playing. We will switch off the half-time show and watch TPUSA’s half-time show instead.

So tell us…what’s your superpower?

Blogging. I started blogging in 2008 and it is still something that I enjoy and comes easy for the most part.

3. Are you a romantic? 

Nope

4. Blue cheese-yay or nay? Yay

How about feta? Yay

If you said yes to one or both, what’s a dish you like that calls for one of these? 

With Feta in mind, Gyros! (photo at the top of this post) Greek Salad. With Bleu Cheese in mind, Wedge Salad. Bleu cheese dressing. In the past we’ve enjoyed focaccia bread brushed with olive oil and topped with red onion and bleu cheese, then toasted. It is a tasty treat. There are some great sauces with Bleu cheese that are delicious with steak.

5. What’s more important-doing what you love or loving what you do? 

These two are the same in my mind. I’m sure I’ll read some better answers that clarify this thought.

A verse did pop up in my memory bank.

Colossians 3:17

¹⁷ And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

Yesterday I posted some photos on my blog of some changes we made in our family room that has improved our prospect. Do you watch British programs like ‘Escape to the Country’? I’ve enjoyed the comments made about a room’s ‘prospect’ on that show. Usually they are talking about windows like a double prospect or triple prospect.

A good prospect offers an expansive, open, or clear view, enhancing the perceived, or actual, aesthetic and comfort value of a space.

That is how we feel about the minor changes we have made in this much lived in space. Our prospect is improved.

In the daylight hours…
