Today’s questions are provided by Janette.

{1} What game show have you always thought you could be on and totally WIN!
I have always wanted to be on Wheel of Fortune! I’m pretty good at word puzzles and always have fun trying to shout out the answers before the rest of my family. (which is probably the reason we don’t watch that show much any more) But yes, I could totally WIN!

{2} Do you have a tattoo(s)? What are they and what made you chose them? If not, would you get one, yes/no/why?
I do not have any tattoos! There was a time when I wanted one, but I’m so glad I didn’t go through with it. I’m pretty sure I would have regretted it later. Although I don’t have any, I love looking at other peoples tattoos! There are some amazing artists out there!

{3} What is your favorite piece of jewelry that you own?
My favorite piece of jewelry is actually my wedding set. My hubby had them completely redone a few years ago for our anniversary and I absolutely love them! I’m pretty hard on jewelry sometimes and I had lost my original diamond from my engagement ring. When Mike took it to be repaired, he had them do a complete redesign!

{4} What is your driving pet peeve(s)?
Well, a little something that a lot of people don’t know about me, I DON”T drive! However, by not driving, I observe a lot of crazy drivers out there! Texting while driving, drives me crazy! Seriously, nothing is that important that it can’t wait. If it is, PULL OFF THE ROAD! But texting is not the only way  that people distract themselves from the road, there’s also talking on the phone, fixing your hair, playing with the radio, etc. A few months ago hubby and I were behind a tractor trailer weaving all over the road. We cautiously passed him and as we did, I looked over to see what he was doing. He had a book open on the wheel and was not even looking at the road! Scary!

{5} What was your favorite sitcom growing up that you wish was still on?
I loved TV growing up!  Family Ties, The Cosby Show, Wonder Years, and Full House are a few of my favorites!

Rainbow Rice

My girls have always loved playing with their rice bins. Usually it’s just plain old white rice, but today I dyed some rice for them. All you need is some rice, food coloring, and rubbing alcohol. You can do this the way I did when we dyed pasta, or you can shake it around in ziplock bags. Just stir together 1/2 cup alcohol and 10-20 drops of food coloring. Then, add it to the rice and stir or shake depending on which way you choose to do it.  Spread the dyed rice onto trays lined with paper towels and allow it to dry completely.

When our rice was dry, I poured it into our sand table and added some alphabet pasta.

Under The Weather

Our week started off with Madelyn having the stomach bug. It is slowly moving through the rest of the family. Only Michael, Mike, and myself are left and I am not looking forward to it! Hopefully, it will skip me! That would be the best Mother’s Day gift ever!

 

Have a great weekend and A very Happy Mother’s Day to all the mommas out there!
