Sunday Stealing

1. Name a TV series show or shows in which you have seen every episode at least twice:

A. Xena: Warrior Princess. Star Trek (the original). Gilligan's Island. 

2. Name a show or shows you can't or would not miss:

A. There aren't any at the moment.

3. Name an actor or actors that would make you more inclined to watch a show:

A. Sandra Bullock, George Clooney. I don't know. I'm lucky I know those names.

4. Name an actor or actors who would make you less likely to watch a show:

A. Adam Sandler. Will Ferrell. Mel Gibson, Clint Eastwood. Roseanne.

5. You're having a lovely dinner party for friends and family.  What will you serve for appetizers, main course and dessert?

A. I hate to cook, honestly. I'd have a plate of shrimp w/ sauce for appetizers, meatloaf, green beans, and mashed potatoes for the main course, and cherry pie with vanilla ice cream for dessert.

6. Snowstorm! You've got house guests and you're all stuck inside for the night. What do you prepare for dinner? Will you watch a movie? Which?

A. For dinner I would prepare soup and sandwiches. If the power stays on, we could watch Lord of the Rings.

7. We are going into New York City for the weekend. Where do you want to go?

A. I'd like to see a Broadway play and visit the Statue of Liberty.

8. You are going to night school.  They offer courses in writing short stories, painting, piano or guitar lessons, simple home repairs, baking, and gardening. Which do you pick (or make up one of your own) and why?

A. I would take the writing course and the guitar lessons because I already do both and never mind learning more about either.

9. Ever been to a drive-in theater? Would you like to see drive-in theaters make a comeback?

A. I have been to the drive-in theater many times. I wouldn't mind seeing them make a comeback. They would have been very welcome during the Covid pandemic - we could have all gone to the movies and stayed in our cars.

10. Should towns provide community entertainment like bands in the park, fireworks on the 4th, community picnics or is the cost just too much?

A. I think that depends on the town and its residents. However, I think any investment in the arts and activities that add to the enjoyment of the residents of a community are worthwhile.

11. What would you change about your town if you had the power?

A. I don't live in a town. I live in a county. I like it here for the most part. If I were to change anything, I think I'd have more focus on the historic nature of the area. This was once the wild west.

12. How often do you find yourself shopping for groceries?

A. I go about twice a week. I try for once a week but we usually run out of something.

13. Do you have a favorite nighttime snack?

A. No. I try not to eat anything after 6 p.m.

14. Do you buy in bulk and what kinds of tips do you have to save money on grocery shopping?

A. I use digital coupons and store promotions. Some things I buy in bulk, like toilet paper (can't ever have too much of that), but foods I generally do not buy in bulk. They will go bad before the two of us can eat them up.

15. Let's have a picnic in the park.  What foods are we packing, and will we cook anything there or is it all prepared ahead of time?

A. We'll have fried chicken, potato salad, drinks, potato chips, green beans, deviled eggs, chocolate cake. It would all be prepared ahead, preferably by someone in a store or restaurant where I buy it already made.
