Friday's Feast

Feast Ninety-Eight
Appetizer
What is a word that you use that would not be considered common?

There are several, but what comes to mind today is "hock" as in "watch out, the cat just hocked a hairball on the stairs."

Soup
What theme of calendar do you have on your wall this year?

No wall calendar is on my wall; a very generic calendar put out by Corporate Express is on the desk.

Salad
Name 3 people you speak with by telephone a regular basis.

Sales people from Dish Network (I can't wait until our Do Not Call status kicks in so they stop calling), and Mr.V. In that order. I can't think of a third.

Main Course
If you could buy a new outfit for someone you know - who would it be and what would you purchase for them?

Oh, I'd love to buy something new for KidV1. Something trendy, but not over-the-top. Something to take her mind off the fact that I said I'd sew a pair of pants for her, I've bought the fabric, and the fabric is languishing on the table right now with no scissors or even a hint of cutting out and sewing up in sight.

Dessert
What is the last beverage you drank?

Green Magma in about 10 oz. water, right before I started writing. I drink it every morning.

EDITING BY POPULAR DEMAND: Here's a link to the Magma stuff. It's a green powder you mix in water. It sticks to the side of the glass, and you'll have to handwash rather than put it in the dishwasher. It also sticks to your lips, so you'll have to wipe them, too, unless you want people staring at you. It tastes sort of like liquid salad (lettuce and greens only). It gets a serving of green leafies out of the way early in the morning. You might want to bear in mind that although I'm okay drinking this first thing in the morning, I'm also able to use words like "hock" first thing in the morning without gagging.
