1. Fun with Flags (Without Sheldon Cooper)
Show & Tell Flags
-flag of your country, territory

I think everybody knows what the US flag looks like, so here's the flag of Pittsburgh
1624652625901.png
-favorite flag, why
I like the flag of Nepal because it's a cool shape.
1624652733011.png
-do you fly flags I don't have any actual flags. The last flag-related thing I displayed was a trans pride flag sticker on my shirt at the Pride march earlier this month.

2. Oral Care-
what color is your toothbrush?
It's white. I got it when I was in the hospital because I was too lazy to buy one for myself.
how often do you replace it? I... kinda don't :/
frequency of mouth care? Whenever I remember, which is not always, so that's probably why my teeth aren't in the best shape.
full 2 minutes of brushing? I try
Floss? I keep flossers in my room to get food out of my teeth but that's about it.
Mouthwash? Don't tend to use it
Pulling? I have had a couple of teeth pulled, if that's what this is asking.

3. Sweets
Like chocolate pudding?
Yes!
favorite pudding/cold custard? Pistachio pudding
favorite ice cream? Don't know if they still make it because I can't find it anywhere, but Ben & Jerry's Justice ReMix'd is really good.
favorite dessert? Ice cream sundae
favorite candy? Dark chocolate

4. Food
what is your favorite food to make?
Something easy because I hate cooking
what would you make for a meet-up? Muffins or something like that. I like baking better than cooking.
favorite food to order? Tempura or other Japanese food
best comfort food? Roast beef and mashed potatoes or fried chicken
favorite breakfast? Chocolate chip pancakes
food that you hate? Black licorice and beets that aren't roasted
Do you hunt & gather? Garden? I used to like to garden but was never able to grow any fruits/veggies/herbs

5. vacation
whats the best vacation you ever took?
France + Switzerland with host families :)
dream vacation? London or Tokyo
last vacation/get away? Nashville for a rugby tournament
how did you get there? Carpool
bucket list destinations? Lots of places

6. Podcasts
do you listen?
On occasion
how frequently? Rarely
favorites? The Black Goat (about doing psychological science), Last Word on Spurs (Tottenham Hotspur)
worst? haven't listened to any really bad ones
recommended Don't really have any general interest ones I've listened to, so I only have ones if you're interested in similar stuff.
To be fair, sometimes Kitboga refers to his scambaiting streams as a podcast that's not quite a podcast, and they're always a lot of fun, but I don't class it as a podcast.


7. Sleep
favorite sleeping position?
On my side
snore? Probably, since I was diagnosed with sleep apnea
top sheet? Currently not sleeping with any sheets because it's too hot.
fan? Only when it's hot
TV? No, I don't even have one. Sometimes I fall asleep in front of my laptop, but not on purpose.
do you make your bed? I'm too lazy. And my mattress cover sheet has come almost completely off and I haven't even fixed that.
how many pillows? Used to do 4 (2 normal ones and two smaller ones side by side on the bottom) but the one small one is falling apart, so I do 3 now.
ever pillow fight? Can't remember ever doing that.
are you a bed hog? I typically have the bed to myself, but I've shared a bed with my sister while on vacations as a child, and she tended to be the one to hog the bed.

1). I like seeing huge flags flying

2). oral hygiene on all your counts. I oil pull 1st thing am but only now when the mood strikes.
And something I do also first thing is tongue scraping.

3) I like flan, brûlée, and lemon drops...not a big sweets person. Something well done with chocolate on occasion. A piece of real NY dry cheesecake but I haven't made one in years.

4) I gather and garden a bit, right now only lots of herbs and a cucumber....I like watching things grow especially from seed
I used to cook a lot and enjoyed it when I had family and a social circle....breads were fun.

5) I used to love to travel by car and be spontaneous and explore while on the road. Last couple of trips were to Thailand and India. I'd love to go to Portugal, Spain, Bhutan, South America/Amazon, Tibet, Scotland, back to Pacific Northwest, Hawaii, etc. etc.

6) not really

7) ok to Sleep....pillow fights were fun, I mostly straighten the bed linens, stomach or side sleeping, impossible on my back

huge flags are amazing to me too. same here on the oil pulling.
my mom has a couple apple trees that are finally big enough to fruit. She sowed the seed from an apple she ate. I think that is wizardry of some kind! 😀 i am learning to grow things, but she makes it look easy when it isn’t.
during the pandemic, i tried some yeast breads. Id like to be better at it.
your vacation spots are interesting. Will look some places up.

Do you play rugby or a fan?
I played rugby in college. I wasn't very good, but I was still part of my school's team.
Black goat sounds interesting. Kitboda is new to me too.
I would recommend people check out Kitboga. He streams on Twitch. Typically Monday at around 4 pm, Tuesday and Wednesday at 11 am, and Friday at 12 pm (all in Eastern US time zone.) I tend to tune in most often on Monday and Friday, but he and his family have been sick this week so he put on reruns instead on those days this week. But he's very funny. He also has a Youtube channel where he uploads shortened versions of his calls with scammers. The interesting calls can be long, but he'll cut it down to usually around 30 mins to an hour for his channel.
do you use a cpap for your apnea?
I was supposed to, but i was having trouble using it every night because I have a tendency to just stay up until I fall asleep instead of turning off my laptop and actually getting ready for bed, so I wasn't able to use the CPAP enough so that my insurance would cover it so I unfortunately had to send it back.

@Witty⭐️Sarcasm ⭐️

have you ever looked at something that you KNOW you have seen, but it seems like its new? Yeah-michigan flag. Cool.
i have been to the Dells too. Very fun place. Tacos are a good idea for a meet up. We have a family reunion coming up at McClain State Park. We are staying at a hotel, but tocos or a taco salad might be a good idea to take- thanks for the idea.
one of my bucket l places was pictured rock National Shoreline. Ifyou havent been- Go NOW. 😁🤣
Do you use a cpap?

Hi all, hope everyone is looking forward to the weekend. It’s my husbands birthday on the 26th. Not doing anything in particular but have bought him his favourite cake. Other than that just a normal weekend for me I guess.

lots of cool questions, I’ll have a go at answering some……


2. Oral Care-
what color is your toothbrush? Blue electric
how often do you replace it? When I remember or the bristles look really bad!!
frequency of mouth care? Definitely twice a day
full 2 minutes of brushing? No. Doesn’t seem worth it.
Floss? Not really
Mouthwash? Very occasionally
Pulling? Had 8 teeth pulled for various reasons. 4 premolars because my mouth was just too small and al my wisdom teeth.
other…. My son developed what they call shark teeth. The adult teeth grow up behind the baby teeth so he had two rows of teeth. Had to have the baby ones taken out.

3. Sweets
Like chocolate pudding? Of course!
favorite pudding/cold custard? I like apple and toffee crumble with custard.
favorite ice cream? Not a fan of ice cream. Not worth the calories.
favorite dessert? 👆
favorite candy? Butter mintoes. Always have a bag in the cupboard.
other…..

7. Sleep
favorite sleeping position? On my front although it means I wake up with a sore back if I do.
snore? I’ve been told I squeak as opposed to snore.
top sheet? No
fan? No, too noisy
TV? Nope
do you make your bed? Yes. I try to
how many pillows? 2 usually
ever pillow fight? No
are you a bed hog? I sleep right on the edge so no.
other…. My husband snores big time. On occasion I move onto the sofa so I can get some sleep away from the snoring. I’m terrible at getting to sleep but equally terrible at waking up in the morning.

Take care everyone, look after yourselves and try to have some you time this weekend. *hugXx

@TIWIADIFI
a Canadian comedian 🤣.
Pirates, flag capes, and I will guess the Rum/raisin 🤐 is a joke too! At least it has the rum going for it.
fresh baked bread with all the fixens sounds delicious!
So Ill see you at a meetup- Ill be the one with a pillow!
Challenge accepted. I’ll call the caterer!
P.S. The rum and raisin is for real and it is amazing in a waffle cone.

There's something about colorful flags high up blowing in the breeze. I love hearing that y'all have watched the trees from a seed and now reaching one of its circles and you are going to eat from it :D. One of the best smells in the world, IMO, yeast breads baking, I haven't done it in awhile....danger of sitting down and eating half of it at one time;)
