Because you asked

Well actually you didn’t, but I’m responding to a writing prompt anyway

What is your favorite way to eat eggs?

Not at all.

(Ick alert)

I grew up on a chicken farm and I saw far too many eggs with fetal chickens inside. Kind of put me off eggs for good.

Look up your zodiac sign; is it anything like you?

I’m a Libra, so I’m always trying to see both sides of the argument and keen on finding balance. Or maybe I’m not….

And yes, Roz, astrology is balderdash, but it’s fun.

What is your best trait?

I would like to say my sense of humour but that’s a very hard thing to be sure of, because it depends so much on the listener.

So I’ll say my curiousity. Because that’s what keeps me going.

Do you talk to strangers?

Less now than before I retired. Back then, it was my job.

Could you live in Alaska? Why or why not?
Nope. Too cold and dark to much of the time.
