Irish Coffeehouse has asked me a few foreign related questions. This looks to be the last in the Q&A series but if you didn't get a chance to ask me a question feel free to head on down to this post and ask away.
How many languages can you speak? One, English.
When you lived in Germany, did you actually speak German before going there? And while there, how much of their language did you use? I did take German for 3 years in H.S., so I did speak German before living there but I can not fluently speak German. I only used small amounts of German while I lived there. I was too afraid of screwing it, saying the wrong thing the wrong way. Luckily I lived where most spoke English so I wasn't forced to use it but I always said Please and Thank you in German. I can understand more than I can speak.
If you could vacation for an extended amount of time or live abroad anywhere in the world, where would it be? Italy, Ireland, England, Greece. I'd say Scotland as well but I wouldn't be able to handle hearing men talk, I would just melt! I'd be putty in their hands.

Q&A with Kaytabug Part 9
The lovely Jenni from the oh so fragrant Prairie Air has asked me a bunch of Kansas related questions.
Here are a couple I know will be easy for you to answer.
What are your favorite Kansas places? Wow I have a lot of favorite places in Ks.I'll name a few. One would have to be Harvey County West Lake/Park. It has a beautiful Nature trail that I love to walk. I was married there, not on the trails or Lakeside but on the park grounds under the Cottonwoods. Pillsbury Crossing near Manhattan, KS which is located in another favorite place of mine, The Flint Hills. Tuttle Creek Lake, more specifically the Spillway. It doesn't look the same as it did when I used to go there often, but it is still a favorite place. If I get the chance to scan I will share pictures here. Looks like I will be sharing those photos Tuesday.
What do you love most about Kansas? Are you kidding me? I have talked about my love of KS in this post and in this one, scroll down to the picture of 3 girls on bikes. What follows that picture is some things that I heart about KS. I'll share some more here for those non link clickers. I love the wide open spaces, the fact that you can see for miles and miles and miles and miles! I love the Flint Hills, the rolling sea of grass. I love the people. I never knew how I took it for granted until I lived in NYC. Actually I didn't even realize that I loved the way people are in Kansas until I lived in NYC. I don't know how to explain it but even my hubs has said that sometimes the niceness of people in KS is almost too much. I love complete strangers saying Hi as you walk past them, holding doors open for complete strangers, returning your wallet to your doorstep when you were having a blonde moment and left it on the top of your car when you were filling it up with gas. Good people. The stars seem to shine brighter in KS, the air actually smells fresher, cleaner. I love the beauty of the state, even though it took me leaving her to realize how beautiful she was and how much I loved her.
Now that I sound like a complete freakazoid I will move on to the next question!
If you could live anywhere, where would it be? (Be specific!) I would love to live in the Manhattan,KS area. Preferably in the country. My second choice would have to be in the country outside of my hometown. Ever since my first visit to Manhattan I felt like I was home. I still feel that way whenever I go visit.
Where can you buy sunbutter? (I'm guessing that is sunflower nut butter.) She guesses correctly. I buy it at the Dillons store in my hometown. It is located in the "organic" section. Most health food stores should carry it. Sunbutter comes in 6 varieties. Natural Crunch is my favorite. It does come in Organic for those organic lovers. I like sunbutter better than Peanut Butter. It is an alternative for those with peanut allergy's.
What is the quirkiest Kansas place you've been to? Lucas, Kansas. Hands down. Any place that has this and is Home of The World's Largest Collection of The Worlds Smallest Versions of The Worlds Largest Things is beyond quirky.
What is your favorite flower? (I bet I know.) Yes Jenni, I bet you do know. ;) The Sunflower, which happens to be the State flower of Kansas. I also love daisies and roses. Those are my top 3 for sure. Those 3 were also in my wedding bouquet, along with a few sprigs of wheat( for my Mom's parents who were wheat farmers,my Grandpa passed when I was 17 and my Grandma M. passed 5 months before my wedding. My Grandma P. had passed 3 months before my wedding and the roses represented her) and other native Kansas wildflowers.

Q&A with Kaytabug Part 8
My most favorite Hineykapoople, Beckie has asked me a few questions. I have forgotten to mention in my last 2 posts that if you have a question you would like to ask me, head on over to this post and ask away. Don't forget to be careful what you ask for. Nikki found that out the hard way. ;)
On to Beckie's questions.
How is that exercise program doing?
It all started with my realization that not only had I been wearing fat pants I had moved on to wearing fat shirts, then I finally shared my workout play list. What really got my lazy fat ass motivated was finding out my number. At the time of that post I needed to loose 20 lbs to get into the normal weight BMI range. I got SICK right before my in-laws came for their annual visit, that helped to shed a good 5lbs. What I am most stoked about is the fact that I bought the Wii Fit. I pre-ordered that bad ride back in April and ever since the last day of May the Wii Fit has been rockin' my fat ass!! I L.O.V.E. my Wii Fit. I am now only 11 pounds away from my goal!! I will continue the Fit the rest of the summer with walks here and there. Come Mid-August when school starts up again you will find me back at the gym! I'll still be doing the Fit on the days I can't make it and the days that aren't gym days. I think the Fit has been a perfect way to ease my inactive ass back into working out. The way I see it, by the time I will be able to hit the gym again I'll be able to hit it full force like I used to.
How hot was it today where you are at?
Beckie asked her questions on June 12th, the high that day was 88. June 13th we were to have a high of 76. Today the 18th of June it was 78. Tomorrow same thing. I am loving this mild weather. It is mild for this time of year. Normal temps are at least in the 85 range. I am so not complaining. Lat summer we only had a couple weeks of 70 degree highs then it went straight to upper 90's!
Are you going on any good vacations this summer?
Vacation? What is that? We don't do vacations. Not because we are too good for vacations or whatever we just don't do them. The closest we get to a vacation is me taking the boys home to Kansas, staying with my Mom, taking them to swim lessons at the local pool, and taking them to other favorite places like the Zoo and stuff. I am a laid back kinda gal. Itinerary's and schedules make my ass twitch. I like to go with the flow. I also do not like MAJOR crowds. Zoo crowds aren't major, but I'm guessing a Zoo in a city with an estimated population of 357,698 doesn't have MAJOR crowds. We are going home, to Kansas, in July. Just me and the kids. The Fit is coming too. The 9 lbs I have lost would go right back on after eating at my 2 most favorite restaurants. I won't just be eating at their fine establishments just once,not just twice, maybe not even thrice, at minimum 4 times each restaurant. How I love Mexican and "German" food. I grew up eating at these restaurants. My Mom was never a cook so these 2 restaurants are like soul food for me, like Mom's home cookin' is for most.
Do you like to go camping?
NO. I love the outdoors but I can't sleep on the ground or in a bag. I would miss the comforts of home too damn much. Where's my DVR? Is there Wi-Fi out here? Where is that porcelain goddess? I LOATH porta-potties. Doing my bidness out in the woods just doesn't appeal to me. If you were talking RV camping, I'd be all over that! I know, I know RV's have a built in porta-potty that has to be emptied. That's what husbands are for, to get rid of all that bowl nectar.

Q&A with Kaytabug Part 7
My favorite NOT a Stepford Wife Robinella has asked me this, "I don't know what prompted the Grandma's Things posting you were going to do, but that's my question. When are you going to do those posts?"
Good question. This post is what prompted the Grandma's Treasures posts I wanted to do. I tried to take pictures but they just didn't do the treasures justice. I wanted to make a light box in the hopes that would help, I haven't made the darn box. Now I want to get a better camera. So it may still be a while before I get to those posts but I have not forgotten them. I still want to share my Grandma's Treasures.
Now for a sneak peak/wet your whistle/teaser here are a few photos I took back in February. When I wanted to start these posts.
Sorry Robinella, I have no idea when I will get to them but I will. You will be the first one I tell when they are going to show up on my blog. Kinda like advanced tickets to a concert!

Q&A with Kaytabug Part 6
Part 6 of my Q&A is brought to you by that wee feisty bitch AFF. She wants to know "What is your favorite piece of furniture in your house and why." If you have been reading me long and most of you have I can't pick one of anything. I was able to narrow it down to 3 pieces that are near and dear to me. I actually have 5 pieces that are equally near and dear but I picked the 3 easiest to photo.
This first one was built entirely by my Grandpa P.(Paternal) There were 2 of these corner cabinets. The other had different hardware. My Grandpa built the 2 cabinets for their home. When they moved to KS, the ceilings in their new home were not tall enough so they gave the set to my Mom and Dad. My Mom let my Dad have them in the divorce and then my Dad let his house go to shit. When my Grandpa died my Dad moved into his Dad's house and let his house go into further decay. I was only able to salvage this one. It was my favorite one anyway. I guess I like the hardware better. I am sad I couldn't have both but I at least have one piece of furniture that he built with his hands. There was a dresser he built that we tried to get out as well but it was in worse shape than the other corner cabinet. Umm, AFF didn't ask for the furnitures life story, my bad.
This chair is from my Grandma M.(Maternal) It was part of her dining room chairs. When she passed away they were divided between the 3 sisters and one went to me. It is not the most comfortable chair but I cherish this chair. I think of her every time I look at it. I also think of all the wonderful meals and family company that was had at her table.
This piece is from my Grandma and Grandpa P.'s house. This one belonged to my Grandpa's side of the family, either his parents or his parents parents. It was painted white and my Grandma P. stripped it down to the bare wood you see here. She meant to stain it but never did. I take after my Grandma P.!
So there you have it the what and why of my favorite pieces of furniture. I suppose someone will ask about the other 2. Nothing fancy. One is a cedar chest that used to be up in my Grandma and Grandpa M's Attic. It contained 1920 and '30's dress up clothes. How I wish I had the contents of the chest. They were sold or thrown out or taken to a thrift shop when they moved from the farm to a retirement community. I have the chest which just looking at it takes me back to good times. It now holds a quilt from each of my Grandmothers, various memorabilia, and keepsakes from my boys. I think I need a bigger box.
The 5th piece is a wooden desk from my Grandma P.'s side of the family. It belonged to her father. It is plain Jane, has three drawers on each side and a very shallow one in the middle. For years I have wanted to get an old school desk pad to place on top of it. Now you have the full what and why of my fave 5!

Q&A with Kaytabug Part 5
Is anyone sick of these Q&A posts yet? Not I. It is giving me something to post about. Actually after this one there is only 2 more left. Storyteller and Lisa Marie didn't ask a question so that just leaves AFF and Robinella's questions. Don't cry. You still have time to go ask a question if you haven't done so yet. Just go here and leave a comment with your question for me.
Today's Q&A is brought to you by the lovely and very talented Sauntering Soul. Her request was, "I would love to hear about the most romantic thing your hubby has ever done for you."
Well Bev, I hate to disappoint you but my hubby is not romantic. I was proposed to over the phone. Even when he was able to do it in person he never did. Back in our "courtship" he used to write me beautiful love letters, I haven't received one of those in YEARS. He sent me a mix tape trying to say it was made for the love he hadn't met yet. That he would give it to her when he met her...I fell for it, and made one for him. Back and forth we went with our soundtracks of love. We are up to 7 now. If there was one big romantic thing that he has done, I'm going to be in big trouble for not remembering it. Oh, there was that one time...nahhh there is nothing romantic about telling me I look sexy while laying flat on the floor crawling towards the bathroom pucking my guts out. I do think he cleaned up after me though.
Romance is DEAD, at least in my home it is.

Q&A with Kaytabug Part 4
Today's Q&A is brought to you by that wild and crazy gal Nikki. She had the gall to ask me, "Have you ever had that not so fresh feeling?"
She really likes this question....check this out. I had Strawberry Shortcake answer : Why no I haven't! I always smell like strawberries! Sweet,fresh,strawberries!
Didn't they used to make a strawberry smelling douche? If they did they don't anymore. That's such a shame. Nikki brought this on, so now I am going to share with you the conversation Nikki and I had from my SS answer.
Nikki in reply to my SS answer: Oh that is just so WRONG!
Me: LOL! But she REALLY does!!!
Nikki: I don't know. I've never smelled her crotch before.
Me: Laughing so hard I have tears in my eyes. I never smelled her crotch either but the shortcake I had as a child smelled like strawberries. The blueberry girl smelled like blueberries...they don't make them that way anymore? Still laughing...
Nikki: Do I need to check for you? Please don't say yes.
Me: OMG...stop cracking me up. If she is a happy meal toy then I bet they didn't scent those anyway. If you're ever in toys-r-us give one a wiff.
Nikki: Nope, not a happy meal toy. She is a genuine 1980's Shortcake doll. I bet you're impressed now.
Me: ohhhh yes I am and Now I am going to ass you to smell her!!! bwahahaha
Nikki: Ya know, her hat has lost that magical strawberry smell. Something tells me her nether regions have too.
Me: Well... then your shortcake does experience that not so fresh feeling. How sad.
Nikki: Shall I offer her a spritz of Febreeze?
Me: Sure! That's how I keep things fresh in the bedroom!!!(Thanks Jeff Dunham for my funny comeback!)
Nikki: I'm just not going to go there.
Now I am wondering if there is a Strawberry scented Febreeze. Just because I don't shove any sunshine and I tell it like it is(I so wish I could figure out how to get my "tagline" to show up in my header) my answer to Nikki's question is yes I have. I don't think it's possible to feel fresh during that time of the month . Nor do I feel fresh after my hubs leaves a deposit in my love bank. I am sure this is all TMI but she asked! Don't forget if you are coming late to my party and haven't asked me a question yet head on down to this post and ask away. Just remember, be careful what you ask for!!

Q&A with Kaytabug Part 3
This Q&A session is brought to you by my BFF Fianna. She asked a shit load of questions so let's just get down to it.
Will you ever cross into Texas again? When are you getting married?
If you were guaranteed a girl, and it was possible, would you have another kid? Wow that is a very tough question. The entire 9 months I was pregnant with my oldest I thought I was having a girl, that is how bad I wanted one. I was sad and depressed when she turned out to be a he. Words cannot express how badly,truly,and deeply I wanted a girl. Each time I was pregnant I yearned for a girl. If it was a 100% guarantee that I would give birth to a GIRL, I would. Way back in the day when I only had one child I said if I ever had 3 kids I'd have to have a 4th just to make it even. But that will never happen.
Is that your real hair color? No
Why does my cat puke daily? Why doesn't the kitten eat it anymore? Yoda eats more than she should. Kittens tastes have changed!
Who invented coffee? Can I hug them? According to Wiki you would have to hug what remains would be left of an Ethiopian shepherd from the 9th century. I am guessing you could go to Ethiopia and climb some hilltop and dig up some dirt and hug it if you like. Arabia seems to be the birthplace where the process of roasting and brewing it to drink first took place. Hug an Arab. I think I will just stick to hugging my cup of Joe.
What is your favorite way to drink coffee? (Iced, cappucino, creamer, etc.) If we are talking hot joe then I like sugar and Creamer...Hazelnut creamer, but any form of dairy or non dairy creamer works just fine! I also enjoy cappucino hot or iced. I am not a fan of the froth. But a shot of espresso is sometimes just what I need.
What is your favorite sandwich? I can only pick one? I really enjoy sandwiches. I LOVE LOVE BLT's. Sunbutter and honey sandwiches are the bomb. Deli meat, preferably turkey and ham with lettuce, tomato and cheese...provolone or havarti. OH! I LOVE a hot ham(thinly sliced) and swiss! A cucumber and hummus pita sandwich. I could go on.
Will you mail me your Wii? No, but you can come play with it anytime you want! My offer still stands that if I find one I'll front you, buy it, and mail it to you.
What alternative names could Nintendo have used that would sound even more dirty than Wii, but still pass it off as a gaming system? The creative juices are not flowing. All I have is Pii, and Dii. I'm stuck on their double ii. I think you have Wii envy!
Will you ever cross into Texas again? When are you getting married?
If you were guaranteed a girl, and it was possible, would you have another kid? Wow that is a very tough question. The entire 9 months I was pregnant with my oldest I thought I was having a girl, that is how bad I wanted one. I was sad and depressed when she turned out to be a he. Words cannot express how badly,truly,and deeply I wanted a girl. Each time I was pregnant I yearned for a girl. If it was a 100% guarantee that I would give birth to a GIRL, I would. Way back in the day when I only had one child I said if I ever had 3 kids I'd have to have a 4th just to make it even. But that will never happen.
Is that your real hair color? No
Why does my cat puke daily? Why doesn't the kitten eat it anymore? Yoda eats more than she should. Kittens tastes have changed!
Who invented coffee? Can I hug them? According to Wiki you would have to hug what remains would be left of an Ethiopian shepherd from the 9th century. I am guessing you could go to Ethiopia and climb some hilltop and dig up some dirt and hug it if you like. Arabia seems to be the birthplace where the process of roasting and brewing it to drink first took place. Hug an Arab. I think I will just stick to hugging my cup of Joe.
What is your favorite way to drink coffee? (Iced, cappucino, creamer, etc.) If we are talking hot joe then I like sugar and Creamer...Hazelnut creamer, but any form of dairy or non dairy creamer works just fine! I also enjoy cappucino hot or iced. I am not a fan of the froth. But a shot of espresso is sometimes just what I need.

Q&A with Kaytabug Part 2.5
You read that right, 2.5. It's a follow up of sorts from Q&A Part 2. I didn't want to go out of order but since Chris forgot to ask where only how many AFF asked for her. So to answer where is the furthest I have traveled from home that answer would be Germany. I have made that trip 4 times.
To answer where I have lived the answer would be Kansas,VA,FL,NY,MO,and the foreign country of Germany. If you would like to see some photos from my trip there after High School and some from when I lived there you can visit this post. Well this was short and sweet! Tune in next time when I attempt to answer all of the questions my BFF Fianna asked me. If you haven't asked your question yet get on down to the comment section of this post and ask away!!
That's a lot of links in one tiny post isn't it?!

Q&A with Kaytabug Part 2
I have been having the hardest time coming up with an answer to Janet's question. If you haven't asked me a question head on down to this post and ask away! WT, I guess I didn't link to you in your Q&A post because everyone knows you. It just wouldn't be fair to link all the other's that asked questions and leave you out, so consider yourself linked!
Janet asked me "if you weren't YOU, who would you want to be?" I have no profound answer, nor do I have a witty/snarky/or funny one. There is no one person I would rather be. I would like to know what it was like to live the life my Grandmother's lived, or to know what it was like to live back in Little House on the Prairie days, I'd even like to know what it is like to live life as a man.
Janet I am sorry I am unable to answer your question. I can answer your first question that you thought was somehow wrong.... "boxers or briefs?" If I assume that you mean which do I prefer seeing on men? The answer would be hands down boxers, or those boxer briefs but in no way shape or form do I prefer tighty whiteys not black nor red, not blue or green...I do not like them Sam I am!
Chris B asked, "how many places have you lived and what is the farthest you have ever traveled from home?"
The furthest I have traveled from home was 4943 miles (7954 km) as the crow flies.
I have lived in 3 different towns in Kansas, but I have had 6 different addresses in Kansas.
I have lived in a total of 5 states, including KS, and 1 foreign country. Chris didn't ask where, just how many!! ;)

Q&A with Kaytabug Part 1
Late last night I posted my Blogiversary post. The questions are still coming in. If you haven't asked your question yet get on down to this post and ask away. I have decided not to clump all of the Q&A's into one post. I will be trying to make a post out of each question when possible.
Today's Q&A is brought to you by the letters W and T. He asked, "Ok, here's what I want to know, what was your first pet's name, and what kind of pet was it. If it wasn't a dog, what was your first dog's name and what kind of dog was it?"
Well WT, my first pet was a dog. I was 3 years old when my Dad brought home a tiny little puppy. I named her Annie after Raggedy Ann, she was my favorite doll at the time. Annie was aBrittany. My Dad said he got her for me, that she was my dog but he bought her to hunt with. He trained her well and she loved going hunting with my Dad. She loved playing fetch with me, and loved having her belly rubbed. What dog doesn't love a god belly rub?!! As a bonus, WT gets pictures to go with his answer! Click on them to enlarge them.
This last one I took approximately a year before she died. She lived 15 wonderful years. I loved her very much. It wasn't long after she passed away that my Mom's friend bought a male Brittney for me. I named him Andy. My Mom ended up being Andy's owner. I tried to keep him once I finally had a place that allowed me to have pets but he literally climbed the fence. I couldn't figure out how he was getting out so I watched him one day and saw him climb the fence with my own eyes. I never would have believed it if I hadn't watched it happen. Andy only lived 7 years,he got sick and had to be put to sleep. I know I will always have a soft spot for Brittney's. So as not to end this on a downer I was given a Husky mix in 1997. I named him Neko, he's still kickin'. We bought a Yellow Lab October 2006. We named him Luke, he will turn 2 at the end of August. That's my dog story and I'm stickin' to it!
