I’m joining up with the Sunday Stealing folks! I’m not good at favorites but I’ll give it a try:
Name Your Favorite…
Place: at the beach with my people
Color: red (I also love pink and bright
blue)

fresh cup of coffee but I don’t drink coffee. How about popcorn popping?

Actually, I usually read.

love pearls, too.

Time in history: I’m going with this moment –
living in this moment.

friends gave us as a “moving back into the house” gift. I love to hear them.

County peaches, fresh cherries – I told you . . .sometimes I can’t pick a
favorite

money at Pottery Barn – things for the house. Or are we talking about grocery
stores? I use Publix and Target and Walmart but I do love Trader Joe’s and
Whole Foods
Quote: My boss says, “Err on the side of
grace.” I think it might be my favorite quote these days.
Historical figure: I wish I could talk to
some of the women in history – those who did amazing things but didn’t get the
credit due to them.
Letter: the letter “e” - - I’ve been thinking
about having a small tattoo with e’s
Memory: There is no way I could pick one

granddaughters was born.

“Err on the side of grace” is a GREAT quote!
ReplyDeleteI use it all of the time for so many things!
DeleteLove the quote too.
ReplyDeleteYou can learn Spanish online, at your own time.
Enjoy the weekend!
Maybe I'll learn Spanish online after I finish my degree. I actually checked into getting a tutor and was told by a Spanish teacher that the online programs were great.
DeleteLove the quote! That should be on everyone's wall as a constant reminder.
ReplyDeleteA few of us chose watermelon as a favorite fruit. Just for the record, tomatoes are actually fruit - but I always think of them as a veggie, too. Yum!! I enjoyed your answers, Lisa! I'm sure those chimes sounds beautiful!! xo
ReplyDeleteLove that quote, Lisa. I want to incorporate it into my own speech.
ReplyDeleteMmmm, I enjoy a good german chocolate cake
ReplyDeleteI love the name of that magazine, Garden and Gun!
ReplyDeletePearls for me. :-)
This was a fun post.
