Melissa's Idea Garden

Appetizer
Name a great website you would recommend to others.

Just Call Me Jamin! She always has the best craft ideas! And her sense of humor makes me laugh!

Soup
On a scale of 1-10 (with 10 as highest), how often do you dream at night?

I know i dream every night, but I am too tired to remember it. I maybe remember a dream once or twice a week.

Salad
Did you have a pet as a child? If so, what kind and what was its name?

I had a dog from the time I was 2 or 3 until I was 12. Her name was Candy and she was taffy colored. She was like a sausage dog and she was my best friend. She was always waiting for me when I got home from school. She listened to all of my woes and was always ready with a lick to my face. She loved ice cream and gum drops. When she died it left a big hole in my life and my parents weren't pet people, so I didn't have anymore pets until I got married.

Main Course
If you had the chance to star in a commercial, what would you choose to advertise?

I would be in a public service announcement reminding people to spay and neuter their pets.

Dessert
What is your favorite kind of hard candy?

Peppermint

Hi! I thought I would join in the Friday Feast meme! If you'd like to see what others have to say, check out the original post HERE!

Appetizer

Tell about a time when you had to be brave.

When the doctor recommended that my 18 month old son have a brain MRI done because his head was so big. As an ex-Early Intervention worker, I knew about hydrocephaly and I was terrified. But I played it normal for Jack because I didn't want him to be scared. Turns out he just has a lot of grey matter:)

Soup

Which upcoming movie are you excited about seeing?

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 and Harry Potter 5. I am counting the days!

Salad

Name an item you try to always have on hand.

Ketchup...my husband and son love ketchup! But really, we keep a lot of stuff on hand. The closest convenience store is 10 minutes away, the closest other stores 20 or so...I make one trip a week to the store and otherwise, we do without. So when it comes to things like toilet paper...that's always on hand:)

Main Course

Imagine the most relaxing room you can think of. Now describe it!

A well lit room with lots of windows to let in light and allow me to look out on trees and a small pond and bird feeders. There would be huge comfy chairs to curl up in with good books or a favorite craft and there would be a table for playing board games or for working a puzzle. There would be music softly playing in the background and a fireplace along one wall. Soft, plush throw rugs on the hardwood floor.

Dessert

On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being highest), how spiritual or religious are you?

I am going to say a 5. I am more religious than many, not as religious as many others. I read from my bible, talk with God and attend church. But I don't do any of these as regularly as I should and it is easy for the time to do these things to be filled with other things like work and taking care of my family.
