And this time… bring your appetite.

.

.

Would you choose a rich and creamy clam chowder?

.

.

A traditional lobster roll?

(Chilled with mayonnaise or warm with butter on a grilled hot dog bun are the only acceptable choices. No celery, no lettuce, and god forbid no garlic aioli. It’s simple and delicious the way it is, don’t mess with perfection.)

.

.

A full lobster dinner with drawn butter, corn and steamed clams?

(Beer optional, but highly recommended)

.

.

A scrumptious slice of wild blueberry pie?

.

.

Or a perfectly decadent homemade Whoopie pie?

.

.

What’s first on your list?

Please feel free to substitute iguana, wombat or naked mole rat for your pet of choice in today’s question.

Lord Dudley Mountcatten is a gentle soul.

.

.

Though he was found wandering the roads by the shelter from which he was adopted, I can’t imagine him ever being a true stray.

.

.

He hides under the bed when company comes.

He runs from the vacuum, my blow dryer and the blender.

Loud noises, the voice of a stranger and barking dogs put him on the edge of a heart attack.

He was even terrified of the Christmas tree.

.

.

But the strangest thing he’s frightened of…

The thing that sends him skidding down the hall in terror every time it’s deployed?

.

.

The white trash bag I pull from a box, shake to loosen and line the kitchen can with. He’ll be halfway across the house… hear that, and run for cover.

It’s bizarre.

So what crazy thing is your pet scared of?

It’s not required, by why else would you be here on a Friday ?

.

.

My knee is throbbing with pain, Lord Dudley Mountcatten just raced off the linoleum to vomit on the carpet and I tried to have a bowl of cereal this morning but the milk had turned.

Number 9 for me.

It’s going to be one of those days.

How about you?

Pick a Lucille.

Because there’s at least one of you who looks forward to these.

This is the story of my life.

For 23 years we’ve lived in the country and loved it…. but we never had high speed internet. No streaming, lots of buffering, too many dropped connections. But this year? A miracle.

Fidium was hooked up and I can finally watch what everyone else does on something other than a 5 inch cell phone screen.

Yay!

So naturally now that I can stream? Maine is going to tax it.

The rat bastards.

Apple TV, Amazon Prime, Paramount Plus, HBO Max and Netflix. So my answer is 5… though the Amazon is free with my Prime shipping membership and the HBO comes with our Direct TV subscription.

Do you stream?

And if so, how much.

You may have to think, but hopefully that won’t hurt.

A friend of mine just saw Stevie Nicks in concert at TD Garden in Boston. 77 years old and from the videos she showed me, Stevie still brings it.

Older, yes. Slower, no doubt. But the spirit is still strong.

My goosebumps song is Crystal .

And thanks to WordPress’s annoying new feature of not being able to embed videos, here’s a link.

If you like Stevie, what song does it for you?

With turkey day right around the corner, a holiday themed question seems in order.

.

.

For me, it’s Ambrosia Salad hands down.

My late MIL loved the stuff and brought it to every family dinner, even though she was the only one who ate that monstrous combination of flavors.

How about you?

What dish isn’t welcome at your holiday table….
