Thunking

   Welcome to Sunday Stealing. Here we will steal all types of questions from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent questions. Cheers to all of us thieves!

Once upon a time, in a blogosphere far, far away, there was a popular meme called Thursday Thunks. Alas, the thunking stopped back in 2011.

Thursday Thunks

1. Is there anyone whose home you enter without knocking? Does anyone (who doesn't live with you) have permission to enter your home without knocking?

No! I would never do such a thing.  My family does it to me but  I don't care. But for myself.. absolutely never.    When I was a kid I entered our home and my grandparents home without knocking.

2. Tell us about a school trip you took.

There were so many.  I loved spending the day in  China Town and climging up the statue of Liberty which is really in New Jersey.   The ferry ride to the statue is moving to say the least especaially for those who came by way of Ellis Island like my father's parents in 1900.

We often went to the  Metropolitan Museum and the Natural History museum in New York  and in Carnegie Hall for concerts a few times.    We visited dairy farms, Mystic Port in Connecticutt to see tall ships, the Brooklyn Navy Yard for a ride in a PT boat.  We saw the Philadelphia Philharmonic, Independance Hall , Betsy Ross house,  the Libery Bell, etc in Philadelphia.   We went to Valley Forge, Monmouth Battle field, Washingon's winter Head quarters in Morristown NJ...   We went everywhere you can imagine. 

3. Name three things within arm's reach right

now (but they can't relate to your phone, computer or laptop).

Scissors, a lazy susan pen holder and a  Glade Smooth Bourbon and Oak candle.

4. Weather permitting, do you dry your clothes outdoors on a clothesline?

I used to when I had no dryer.  It was awful especially in the deep winter with temperatures  so low and snow on the ground.

5. If every flower in the world only bloomed in one color, what color would you like to see? 

Pale  baby pink.
