Volume 333
Thank you Joyce
Go here to play along!
1. 'Hurry less, worry less'...what's your strategy for making that happen this holiday season? How's it going so far?
No way that's working for me. I can't hurry less or worry less! However I do feel pretty well organized this year. Christmas boxes went out yesterday. So now I just have to finish up with a few decorations in the house and then wrap the gifts for home. We will have Adam and Gabby here for Christmas day.
2. Do you have a list of to-dos that need accomplishing in order to prepare your home and/or property for the winter season? What are some of the jobs on your list? Are you a do-it-yourselfer or do you hire someone to accomplish these tasks?
Nope, no list here! Mark prunes some of the plants in the garden like the rose bushes but that's about it.
3. According to dietitians surveyed, the most popular health foods for 2018 will be -turmeric, sprouted foods (bean sprouts, breads with sprouted grains, etc), veggies in place of grains, dairy free milk, and pulses (lentils, chickpeas, etc). What's the first thought that ran through your head when you read this list? Of the foods listed which one might you add to your regular diet? Also, can milk really be dairy free? Is it still milk?
I've been taking turmeric for at least 15 years now. My mother in law had sent me an article in reference to healthy lung care. I can say that the amount of lung infections I have had since then has dropped by 80%.
I've been an unsweetened vanilla almond milk drinker for years now. We only eat Dave's Killer bread with 21 whole grains and seeds. I do believe there are some things that are better for your diet. We love veggies and they are part of our daily diet.
4. The Pantone Color of the Year for 2018 is Ultra Violet. According to the Pantone site 'Ultra Violet communicates originality, ingenuity, and visionary thinking pointing us to the future.' What say you? Do you like the color purple? Did you see the movie or read the book-ha!? Is purple a color you wear often? Describe for us one purple item in your home without using the word purple. If you were in charge of such things what color would you select for 2018?
I did see The Color Purple. It was a good movie. I did not read the book. I am not a big fan of purple. I can't think of anything I have that is purple. Yellow, Aqua, Grey and maybe a Fern Green would be my pick.
5. Favorite book read this year?
Didn't do it. Started one and never finished. One of my regrets each year is that I don't take the time to read. I love reading, I love books and have about 400 in my Kindle app. I can't get away from my computer, phone and TV.
6. Insert your own random thought here.

There isn't much stress involved with my holidays. It's pretty much just me and my husband and my daughter will come over either Christmas eve or Christmas day.
I tried the turmeric before and I've heard good things. I don't know why I stopped. Is there a certain brand that you take?
I love to read, but I wish I would watch more movies!
no strees for the holidays because we don't do anything, glad you are having the newly wed couple for Christmas. there is not one thing in my house with the new color purple, nor will there be. if i found a blouse i liked in purple i would buy it but no to in the house. as for number 3 i eat Daves Killer bread the same as yours. i just had a piece double toasted to make it crispy for breakfast. i spread olive oil on it and a light smear of apricot all fruit and it is delish.
forgot to say number 3 is how i eat now and have since past January
Four calling birds - that is funny and cute. Glad you are keeping up with Christmas. I knew or hear the color of the year - ultra violet -saw it on the news. What kind of turmeric do you use?
I’m also curious about the turmeric. How much and is it in pill form? I just mailed my box today. Walked into UPS and nobody was in line! I couldn’t believe it!! Made my day! When I left it was at least 8 deep.
Love the 4 calling birds! lol
I prefer television or computer over books, too... I need to do better.
I love your random thought. You always find the cutest things to share :)

You're the second one who's mentioned tumeric today ... I'm going to have to Google and see just what the heck it is!
That almond milk is to die for, isn't it? I like it in the summer with frozen coffee cubes.
Too plumb to hurry and God worries for me...like the saying goes, He's going to be up all night anyway.
I drink Tumeric tea with black pepper which I've read boosts the efficacy of tumeric. I'm not giving up dairy or grains and "dairy free milk" frightens me off. Moderation in all things, including moderation sometimes.
Four calling birds...LOVE your sense of humor!
Merry Christmas Debby, Merry Christmas!
The four calling birds is excellent.
Those 4 calling birds are so cute! Glad Adam and Gabby are spending Christmas Day with you all; I'm sure it will be lots of fun!
betty
Greetings Debby, Great answers. Hope you are having a great day!
Hugs,
Noreen
Tell me how you take turmeric.
I also am not a fan of purple. I do not have one clothing item in purple.
Hi Debby,
Thank you so much for stopping by.
I wish you a Merry Christmas, also.
I love your random thought :)
I should be fine in 2018.
I have lots of purples.
I am wearing purple today :)
