2. It's Department Store Day (October 16)...do you still shop in department stores? If not do you miss that kind of shopping experience? Do you have a favorite department store? Any fun memories of department store shopping when you were a child?
I haven't really shopped in a department store since the pandemic started but even then I wasn't really going shopping at any malls.
Actually I am not missing it at all. I think I have fond memories of shopping at the mall. Especially around the high school years with friends.
3. Something you're currently nuts about?
Obviously I am nuts about being a grandmother to James.
4. What's your favorite nut and is there a favorite recipe where this nut is used?
I actually like most nuts. I currently buy a mixed nut from Costco, unsalted. It has cashews, pistachios, almonds and pecans.
I haven't made them in years but I would make pecan tassies at Christmas.
5. On Wednesday we officially reach the '70 days until Christmas' mark. Have you purchased any gifts? If you don't celebrate Christmas then how about Hanukkah presents?
It's all coming too soon, however I am thinking about gifts. I usually ask for suggestions. Actually at this point I have gifts for all the dogs in the family.
6. Insert your own random thought here.

They grow up fast. My little nephew just turned eight.
I just noticed your "I love giraffes" square on the left. They are beautiful, aren't they?
Oh, those pecan tassies look good! I haven't had one of those in years. Christmas shopping? Oh NO! Not again! I am the world's worst procrastinator when it comes to Christmas shopping. Just thinking about it makes my palms sweat and I start getting all tense. But actually I have already bought a couple of things, now that I remember it! LOL. I keep trying to start early. It's just not in my make-up. LOL. So happy for James being a big 6 year old boy now! He sure is a cutie pie! You are blessed to live near and get to watch him grow! (((hugs)))
Love that you have gifts for all the dogs : ) My mom used to make pecan tassies but that's one I haven't tried. My hubs loves them so I guess I should pull that recipe out this year. Have a great day!
I love nuts, and the mixed nuts sound good that you get at Costco. :-)
I still cannot believe James is 6 years old!!
xx oo
