  2. Hi Kerry! Congratulations on your Sunshine Blogger Award!
    We are all in this together and no one should feel alone in their grief journey. I loved reading your Q&A and totally agree with you about the multi-talented actress Reese Witherspoon being an interesting person to meet for coffee. I’m willing to play so here goes with answering your questions:
    My Questions For You (Most are summer themed):
    •What are your thoughts on camping? Fun or total nightmare?
    Camping can be fun especially if there are bathrooms nearby.
    •Would you rather go swimming in a pool, lake or ocean?
    Love the ocean the most but for swimming it would be in a pool.
    •What is your favorite summer memory?
    When my late husband and I would spend vacation at the ocean and our son was a toddler.
    •Are you going on a vacation this summer?
    Yes! To the ocean of course.

    When family & friends build a fire and we sit and talk and sing, listening to the sounds of ocean and gazing up at the clear night sky.
    •What is your favorite type of ice cream? Flavor? Soft serve or hard ice cream?
    Chocolate chip. I prefer hard ice cream. Soft serve only when you can dip it in chocolate sauce.

    Maybe 100.
    •What is your favorite food to eat at a BBQ?
    Cole slaw or corn bread.

    1. I agree. We are all in this together 🙂

      I loved your answers. I am usually an Autumn person myself but I live in a climate with 4 distinct season and I do love each one though I think winter can drag on. The cool thing about having a little one is that I get to look at each season through her eyes which is exciting.

    1. Thank you for nominating me. One thing that’s peanut butter cups were hard to find in England. (This was 1999 though…) I found some and made all my English housemates try them and they hated them. One of my English friends went so far as to call them “vile”. I couldn’t believe anyone could find peanut butter cups vile.
