1. Fresh Veggies Day : do you get your 5 fruit/veg per day? What is your favourite vegetable?​

A DAY!!??​

Ok, I would like to say that, but I actually DO nowadays...​

​

Favourite Vegetable has got to be a well fried tender-stem brocolli... (oh how far I have fallen from my Super-Meat-Eater days)​

​

2. Universal Human Beings Week : what do you find great about the human species? No negative stuff, celebrate the beauty humans can create!​

We are endlessly adaptable, I think we are the only macroscopic life forms who have managed to survive extended periods in not just 1 environment, but deep underwater, on land, in the air and in space!​

​

3. Candy Month : what is your favourite childhood candy?​

Those little 1p white chocolate mice​

​

4. Introverts Week : are you an introvert? What is your favourite thing about being an introvert/extrovert?​

I am (mostly). My favourite thing about it is that I dont need people in order to recharge.​

​

5. International Flirting Week : do you enjoy flirting? Is flirting cheating for you? (Yeah, just because I like to ask about opinions. :P)​

Hey cutie ^^ I do like flirting, but only with 1 person ​

​

Hotel :P​

[Saint Rita]

1. Nope. Probably potatoes.

3. Can't say the name.

4. I'm not an introvert or an extrovert.

5. I have never flirted with anyone and I do consider it cheating.

6. Hotel person.

Thanks for inviting me here, Auri!

Hello All!

1. Fresh Veggies Day : do you get your 5 fruit/veg per day? What is your favourite vegetable?

I'm starting the keto diet which eliminates 90 % of the fruits I eat. But as far as vegetable I guess it is broccoli Steamed.

2. Universal Human Beings Week : what do you find great about the human species? No negative stuff, celebrate the beauty humans can create!

A baby which is nice to see the growth from afar. I am after all a new grandparent.

3. Candy Month : what is your favourite childhood candy?

All of it except fireballs. They just hurt my teeth thinking about them.

4. Introverts Week : are you an introvert? What is your favourite thing about being an introvert/extrovert?

The Briggs-Myers test in a crowd of people has me down as an introvert but I don't think I am naturally an introvert. I can recharge easier in a crowd even though I am shy.I am not happy being alone

5. International Flirting Week : do you enjoy flirting? Is flirting cheating for you? (Yeah, just because I like to ask about opinions. :P)

I think flirting is fine and I enjoy it but if something starts between married people (not married to one another) then that is cheating.

6. Camping Month : are you a tent, camping car, or hotel person?

I used to tent all the time but the ground is getting harder as I age so I am a hotel person as I don't have a camping car.

 

[black orchid]

Hey

1. Fresh Veggies Day : I try to but depends what mood I’m in, favourite would be carrots 🥕
2. Universal Human Beings Week : how much of a positive difference one single genuine person can make to your life and the way you feel, also how immensely creative people can be.
3. Candy Month : I don’t eat many but the little pink chocolate hearts and mice were tasty
4. Introverts Week : very much an introvert, you can learn a lot about people by just observing their interactions with others
5. International Flirting Week : do you enjoy flirting? Sometimes, depends the circumstances. Is flirting cheating for you? Again depends on circumstances.
6. Camping Month : are you a tent, camping car, or hotel person? Hotel 100% although a tent could be fun…maybe

 

[Witty_Sarcasm]

1. Fresh Veggies Day : do you get your 5 fruit/veg per day? What is your favourite vegetable?
Not at all, but I need to work more on that. I like cucumber, tomato, corn, and a few others.

2. Universal Human Beings Week : what do you find great about the human species? No negative stuff, celebrate the beauty humans can create!
How we can lift each other up when we're down...this site is a great example of that.

3. Candy Month : what is your favourite childhood candy?
Probably something with chocolate. haha

4. Introverts Week : are you an introvert? What is your favourite thing about being an introvert/extrovert?
Very much so. I think it's peaceful sometimes, because I can be easily entertained with a book or movie or something.

5. International Flirting Week : do you enjoy flirting? Is flirting cheating for you? (Yeah, just because I like to ask about opinions. :P)
Yeah, it's always fun. I wouldn't say cheating but it might make me uncomfortable.

6. Camping Month : are you a tent, camping car, or hotel person?
Hotel or a fancy tent. lol

 

[KM76710]

1. Fresh Veggies Day : do you get your 5 fruit/veg per day? What is your favourite vegetable?

I typically do the 5 each day. Potatoes. Collard greens is my favorite green vegetable but poke sallet is also good and free for the picking here, but wash it right because it is poisonous otherwise.

2. Universal Human Beings Week : what do you find great about the human species? No negative stuff, celebrate the beauty humans can create!

They can be quite caring especially individually.

3. Candy Month : what is your favourite childhood candy?

Chocolate, especially dark chocolate.

4. Introverts Week : are you an introvert? What is your favourite thing about being an introvert/extrovert?

Definitely an introvert. Not having to push up with the bad qualities of being around others.

5. International Flirting Week : do you enjoy flirting? Is flirting cheating for you? (Yeah, just because I like to ask about opinions. :P)

I never learned how to flirt.

6. Camping Month : are you a tent, camping car, or hotel person?

By far...tent, sleeping bad and cooking over an open fire. I do admit as I get older I do prefer comfort so I am slowing down more than I did when younger. Instead of a week out it may be a weekend or so.

 

[Acy]

1. Fresh Veggies Day : do you get your 5 fruit/veg per day? What is your favourite vegetable?

Maybe not quite the whole 5 servings, but lots of veggies and less fruit. Although apparently one of my servings of veggies is equivalent to 2 or 3 of other people’s servings. And I’m quite happy eating a whole bag of kale, cabbage, and brussel sprouts salad on my own. Favourite veggie? Too many choices that I like: broccoli, asparagus, squash, kale, cauliflower, carrots, turnip/rutabaga…​

2. Universal Human Beings Week : what do you find great about the human species?

Music. I’m blown away by humans’ musicality. And then there are the really good, really kind people out there who just do wonderful things to make life better for other people!​

​

3. Candy Month : what is your favourite childhood candy?

Pixy stix, fireballs, blackballs, Smarties (chocolates). ​

​

4. Introverts Week : are you an introvert?​

Yes, I’m an introvert. It’s ok to be quiet…I’m extra observant.​

​

5. International Flirting Week : do you enjoy flirting? Is flirting cheating for you?​

Sure, flirting can be fun! It might depend on the people who are flirting, but generally, I’d say It’s not cheating unless you truly mean to start something serious with the other person.​

​

6. Camping Month : are you a tent, camping car, or hotel person?​

I’ve slept in a tent once, and not really “camping” camping! Hotels all the way please! ​

Hello lovely people, hope everyone is doing well
@Auri thanks for the tag and foe the great questions!

summer here started a long time ago and by now we are in a state of a boiling egg
And now for the question…

1. Fresh Veggies Day : do you get your 5 fruit/veg per day? What is your favourite vegetable?

So I’m definitely a Guinea pig in that matter- I eat lots of vegetables and practically all the time snacking on a some kind of a vegetable. In fact my lunch usually is a salad lol

2. Universal Human Beings Week : what do you find great about the human species? No negative stuff, celebrate the beauty humans can create!

Opposing thumbs!!

3. Candy Month : what is your favourite childhood candy?

everything. Everything you can think of lol.

4. Introverts Week : are you an introvert? What is your favourite thing about being an introvert/extrovert?

well I think I’m an introvert in disguise, I suffer from anxiety and tend to talk and be over active because of so people think I’m an extrovert but I hate being in company too long to be honest, I get tired and overwhelmed and anxious.

5. International Flirting Week : do you enjoy flirting? Is flirting cheating for you? (Yeah, just because I like to ask about opinions. :P)

I am such an awkward person. It makes me feel so so embarrassed! People do hit up on me but I’m awful at taking hints so it takes someone to tell me yo, that guy was flirting with you. Unless someone was like hey do you want to give me your phone number? And then I’m just so embarrassed and awkwardly declining and running away.

6. Camping Month : are you a tent, camping car, or hotel person?

I’m definitely a hotel person I’m so spoiled lol

 

[Windhover]

Salutations! 🤗 And hugs for all, whoever would like to share.
Thank you for the tag 🙂

1. Fresh Veggies Day : do you get your 5 fruit/veg per day? What is your favourite vegetable?

Most of the time yes I do. I love fresh colorful veggies. My favorite is carrots, red potatoes, parsley, red bell peppers, sauteed mushrooms, well really everything except eggplant which I am allergic to.

2. Universal Human Beings Week : what do you find great about the human species? The need to give & receive love which I see inside the eyes and hands, & read in our words too.
No negative stuff, celebrate the beauty humans can create!

3. Candy Month : what is your favourite childhood candy? Oh shoot pretty much all of it. I have to be strict with myself haha.

4. Introverts Week : are you an introvert? Yes.
What is your favourite thing about being an introvert/extrovert? I love exploring my inner worlds even more than the Earth? Maybe they're linked?

5. International Flirting Week : do you enjoy flirting? Is flirting cheating for you? (Yeah, just because I like to ask about opinions. :P)
I am not sure how.

6. Camping Month : are you a tent, camping car, or hotel person?
I've done a fair amount of backpacking in the past. Waking up way high & watching the sun rise with a steaming cup of tea is amazing.
However...
I love the idea of those glamorous tents, but admit I prefer a historic old lodge or quiet under-stated resort! ☺️

 

[Auri]

Opposing thumbs!!

That is such a great answer! to opposing thumbs!

except eggplant which I am allergic to.

I learn about new allergies everyday. ^^ What would be your reaction to eating one? (if you don't mind me asking. You may ignore the question :P)

 

[Auri]

Would that sort of tent be okay?
@seabird @Acy @AFlower @Witty⭐️Sarcasm ⭐️ @KM76710 @black orchid @cymbele

This specific picture is from a place in Belgium I went to two weeks ago. The tents were not available and we went to a hotel, but they look pretty comfy, I would say. :P But I like tiny tents on the ground as well.

 

[black orchid]

Oh wow! @Auri that looks amazing - that would definitely be okay

 

[Acy]

@Auri, the tent and “room” is gorgeous!!! As it is, it would be more than okay. That kind of “roughing it” would be wonderful!

Would love to know if that tent comes with meals and someone to serve them, a maid to make the bed each day?

[StellaQ33n]

I love eating my five a day - it's so refreshing in summer.
I tried Tia Maria for the first time six months ago, wasn't a fan but I tried! I'm going to stick to my fruity smoothies. Yum!
Have a great summer and enjoy the warm weather!
