I should have one next year, but I haven’t heard of any arrangements or plans. We shall see.

Do you have a rocking chair?
 
No…we’ve tried, but they’re hard to grow here…fortunately, there are two orchards nearby that usually have a reliable supply…

Do you have frost this morning?
 
Yes, it zonked my few remaining sunflowers.
Do you have jumper cables or a battery pack in your car?
 
Not yet, but I will if it gets really cold outside.
Do you have a fireplace popcorn popper?
 
Yes, we do…it’s an oldie…back in the mid-seventies, I brought it along on a backpacking trip with my Scout troop…due to an emergency, we were split into two groups, and the food wasn’t distributed evenly…our last night out, we fried pepperoni in the popcorn popper, and used the grease to pop the popcorn…what a meal!!

Another fireplace thingie…do you have a hot dog-roasting fork?
 
No, but we do have marshmallow-roasting forks that could probably be used for the same purpose as long as the hot dogs weren’t too heavy.

Do you have pierced ears?
 
No…I have several rosaries, including one from Lourdes, but I usually pray the rosary while I’m walking, so I use my fingers…

Do you have seasonal allergies?
 
Yes, but about ten years ago I underwent three years of allergen immunotherapy via sublingual drops and that has nearly eliminated my reactions. I used to be constantly miserable for 10-12 weeks straight each year; now, I might have two or three isolated days of suffering. (Last I checked, this type of allergy treatment was not FDA approved and is thus not prescribed in the US.)

Do you have more than three teapots?

Yes I do. Two are collecting dust, and the 3rd gets used a lot,
Do have an expresso maker?
 
No…I do have an old 10-speed [I bought it in 1974] hanging from a hook in the barn…haven’t used it much in quite a few years…

Do you have remote start in your vehicle?
 
Yes - gardening…I did homebrewing for 35 years, and had to give it up after my shoulder surgery…hope to start again soon…

Do you have a family portrait?
 
No…there’s no trick-or-treating out here in ‘the sticks’…

Do you have a Mexican restaurant nearby?
