Just for Fun on Tuesday!

Hey, guess what? Spill the Beans is back this week!! We have some stories for you and hope we can make you laugh! :) Thanks for the grace last week while we took a break!

I had a blog post planned for today, but I needed a little more time to finish it, so I opted to go for some fun. Can you handle some fun on a Tuesday? Borrowed this list from Sarah's blog - and you're welcome to chime in with some answers of your own!! I know I've done similar lists before, but this one was a little different. Might even learn something new!

1. Pool, lake, or ocean? For swimming? Pool. For lounging nearby? Lake. For listening to waves? Ocean. The good news is I'm not greedy!

2. Camping, cottage, or hotel? For a week? A cottage. For a night or two? A hotel. And if, by camping, you mean in an RV, then I guess that might be our future someday! Tents? Oh no. I need my air conditioning, toilet, and shower.

3. Favorite ice cream flavor? Moose tracks!!!

4. PJs, nightgown, or t-shirt and shorts? I grew up on nightgowns. Waaaaaaaaaaaaay too twisty for me. Then I graduated (in college, embarrassingly enough) into plaid grandpa PJ's. I grew out of that phase. I learned that t-shirt and shorts are the way to go, because you can just roll out of bed at hotels and go to breakfast, and people think you've been working out! SCORE!!!

5. Fave summer beverage? I don't drink nearly as many of these as I used to or want to, but I splurge on a few frappes throughout the summer. I like the summer flavors Starbucks has, primarily the s'mores one!

6. Would you rather be hot or cold? COLD ALL DAY LONG! You can always put more on. There comes a point, when you can't take any more off (without being arrested) and being overheated is one of the worst feelings I can experience. It incites anxiety attacks for me.

7. Sandals with heels or flats? I'm a flats girl these days. Partly because I'm almost the same height as Ryan and I don't want to be taller, but partly because I have wonky equilibrium and heels throw me off. I'm so 80.

8. Shorts or skirts? Depends on where I'm going! I like both equally, but I won't wear shorts some places. (Like church. I just can't.)

9. Sit in the sun or the shade? Shade! See point number six.

10. Water, tea, or Coke? Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, the conundrums. I primarily drink water, and I no longer hate it. I love, love, love tea, but I'm super picky about it. (None of that fake stuff from fountain machines. I would drink Coke all day every day if it weren't so awful for me. But it is indeed my first love.

11. Fave summer fruit/vegetable? I'm not sure I have a favorite vegetable from summer, but I do dearly love a good strawberry. (On a shortcake. But I digress.)

12. Sunrise or sunset? Seriously? Ummmmm sunset.

13. Bike ride or walk? Given that I broke my leg by falling off a bike when I was 11, I still prefer walking. I'm not super coordinated.

14. Winery or brewery? I don't drink (at all) so we'll go with CAFE! Coffee brewery! LOL!

15. Garden or no garden? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo garden. I haven't recovered from growing up with gardening. At this point I'm not hopeful it will ever happen.

16. Big summer concert or music in the park? Neither, actually. Not that I hate them both, but we just don't really do either one.

17. Fave cookout food? Hmmmmmmm. My father-in-law smokes some mean pork. That is probably my favorite.

18. Dine indoors or patio? I do like patio dining, but the conditions have to be just right and in Indiana, this mostly never happens. It's usually the bugs that get me. They enjoy dining on me.

19. Fave summer destination? Lake!! We didn't get to go this year, so it will have to be next year's fave summer destination.

20. Big theme park or local carnival? I HATE rides, so I'm really out for both, but I do love carnival food. I missed our fair this year too. :(

21. Drinks blended or on the rocks? Well, as previously stated, I don't drink alcohol, but I do put away coffee at an alarming rate, and 100% I'd go blended on that.

22. Popsicle or freeze flavor of choice? I'm assuming by this, they mean Blizzard or Frosty, right? I'm not really a popsicle or frozen ice kind of girl. Put some cream in it and hand it over.

23. Hamburger or hot dog? HAMBURGER!!!! (We do turkey burgers, and I actually like those just as well!)

So fun! I am a shorts and sandals girl. Feel like I've barely worn real (non gym) shorts since I've been at work so much so in a skirt!

LOVED THIS POST!

from what I can remember i will answer these

I like skorts! and I sleep in t shirt and shorts too. grew up on night gowns and they are sooo twisty.

I love iced coffee now! Always with lots of ice.
I prefer ice cream... soy (cant eat dairy) raspberry with dark chocolate chunks I am addicted to currently at my fave ice cream spot that just opened in fort wayne.

I love sunset!

I like flat shoes too, never heels. Why do that do yourself? ouch.

I like burks or flip flops for shoes.
LOVE summer everything. Wish every season was summer.
hate hate hate being cold. Makes me tense up just thinking about it. Hence, I really live in the wrong state. I would rather be sweating my buns off than freezing walking out of a basketball game to my car and have to sit while it heats up as i see my breath. haha (from many experiences)

I love summer fruits... especially watermelon!

thats all I can remember! Many hugs!
