1. Arnold Palmer, probably (iced tea & lemonade). Vitamin water?!?

2. I am reasonably certain that's a gender-specific question.

3. Well, it used to be Colorado, but the cost of getting there has sort of taken the fun out of that thought.

4. Probably the times spent at my grandparents' house.

5. My favorite meal? Breakfast, probably, but lunch and dinner are fun too. As an aside, breakfast today, courtesy of the Paradise Bakery, was steel-cut oatmeal in an oatmeal-raisin cookie bowl, with bananas, strawberries and brown sugar. I haven't told my son yet about the concept of cereal in cookie bowls, because I can see him doing Cocoa Krispies in a chocolate chip cookie bowl.

Scott, I don't know you look good in pink....okay I have only seen pink in one stripe on a shirt, maybe...

You'll like this pink shirt story (if I haven't already told it to you). Vickie had been "suggesting" I get one and I had been less than enthusiastic. One Sunday morning last year I ran into Don Barnes and he had on a gray sports coat with a pink shirt. I complimented him but told him he was going to get me in trouble with Vickie. He said, "Well, I think they're in style now. I checked it out on the internet."

Speaking of Don, we celebrated his 90th birthday with a party a church a couple of months ago. If he's slowed down, it's not visible yet.

Scott, that is so hilarious and I can just see Don saying it!
