really freaking cold

Winterize is going to be the word for the weekend. It's gotten really cold really soon, so Vic & I are going to have to get out our gloves and nose mittens this weekend. We've already brought in the outside plants and started putting away our patio furniture. We also need to re-arrange the living room so that we can start a fire in our wood-burning stove. Right now the computer desk is a bit too close to the stove, so we've got a lot of heavy moving to do. We had a chimney sweep come out a few weeks ago to clean our chimney, we replaced the cracked glass on the stove door and we've got a lot of nice wood stacked up outside, so we're both anxious to start a few nice room-warming fires. All in all, it should be a busy, but relaxing weekend.

Feast One Hundred & Fifteen
Appetizer
Approximately how many hours per week do you spend reading other blogs?
Nobody but Shawn ever blogs anymore, so I'd probably have to say less than 1 hour per week. Shame on all of you (except you, Shawn).

Soup
Your community wants everyone to give one thing to put into a time capsule. What item would you choose to include?
My new Tigers "terrible towel" that Vic got for me today. It's a very terrorizing color of orange with a big "D" on the front.

Salad
What is the most interesting tourist attraction you've ever visited?
Everything in DC. It was great getting to actually live there for a couple of years because I got the chance to see a lot and never felt rushed. Lots of history there.

Main Course
If you could give an award to anyone for anything, who would it be and what would the award be titled?
"Biggest Dork When Seeing the First Snowflakes of the Season" and I'd give it to Vickie.

Dessert
What do you think your favorite color reveals about your personality?
My favorite colors are blue and green and I guess they reveal that I like being outside exploring new places. (Blue for the sky, green for the grass.)
