Sunday Stealing

(Link in meme-roll)
Stolen from Pinterest

1. Your favorite part of the day
I like that time just around sunset (or sunrise). The light is beautiful at that time.
2. Something you know a lot about
MARC coding. 
And how to deal with medical BS, not including insurance BS.
3. An important person in your life
Let's go with the 2 years I was "unemployed" staying home with Sparky when they were a wee one. It was not a fun period of my life in most respects, but I did enjoy being around a cute kid.
4. Your favorite recipe
Mac n cheese (from my mom, memorized ages ago)
Boil water and dump in a couple of cups of (dry) noodles.
Melt 3 T butter and 3 T flour together in another pan over medium heat. Once combined, add 1 tsp beef bouillon crystals. Combine and slowly add 1-2 cups of milk, turning temperature down a bit. Stir constantly while adding and keep stirring till thickened. Turn off heat. Add at least 2 cups of chunks cheese, preferably sharp cheddar, but whatever. Don't use shreds. Stir till melted. 
Drain noodles and pour into pan, then pour cheese mixture over top. Bake in oven for 30 minutes at 350-ish.

Can cut up hotdogs or sausages and add to cheese mixture if desired.
5. An event that turned out differently than planned
My entire freakin' life! It's why I've given up any semblance of planning.
6. How you procrastinate
Well, this.😉 Reading. Surfing around social media.
7. The best type of surprise
The kind that involves child kisses or hugs.
8. Music that helps you relax
Ambient sound, apparently also known as "spa music."
9. A thing your life has in excess
Sitting in my living room.
10. A book you want to read.
The 14th book (of 366 books on it) on my To-Read list in GoodReads is The Diver's Clothes Lie Empty (Vendela Vida). However, having said that, I don't really keep these in any order. I just snag what looks good. There are SO MANY BOOKS!
11. A person you’re always happy to see.
Sparky
12. What time do you go to sleep?
I'm in bed by 9 usually, but sleep...meh, whenever I can't hold up the book or the phone anymore. This could be 9:15 or 1 a.m.
13. A word to describe the past year.
Stasis.
14. Your favorite household chore
I actually don't mind doing dishes or cleaning toilets. Well, cleaning MY OWN toilets.
15. One thing you’d like to see
The Valley of the Kings in Egypt. Never gonna happen at this rate.

The Valley of the Kings has always been on my wish-list of places to visit, too. So sad the world is as it is and I will probably never get there.

Plastic Mancunian said...

Yes - I love sunrise and sunsets too - as long as it isn't raining of course.

Valley of the Kings - I want to see that too.

:o)

Cheers

Definitely agree with #10!

I hate cleaning toilets, though as a custodian for four months, I had to clean several every weekday.
