Onto the questions...
What is your favorite hobby?
K- Writing!
G- Is reading a hobby? If not I really enjoy Scrap-booking.
What is the best book you've read so far this year?
K- The Blue Castle by L.M Montgomery! Such a sweet story.
G- Ahhh, I don't know!!!! It's a tie between A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness, Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte, and the Prisoner Of Zenda by Hope Anthony.
What is the worst book you've read so far this year?
K- She Walks In Beauty by Siri Mitchel! Don't get me started - if you value your happiness......don't put yourself through this book!
G- Umm, Dawn's Prelude by Tracie Peterson.
What is your favorite color and how do you use it in your life?
K- I love lots of colors, how can I pick one single one?? I'd say the most I use my favorite colors is through Canva.com! I just love creating collages, new blog headers, etc!
G- I don't really have a favorite color either.. annnnd I don't really have more of one color than another in my life!
Do you drink tea and if so, what brand is your favorite?
K- I do drink tea occasionally, but do I have a favorite brand? I know - growing up I used to drink Bigelow's I Love Lemon tea and I loved, loved that flavor, so I'll put down Bigelow as my favorite tea brand. :)
G- I love the idea of drinking tea more than I actually drink tea!! It is my go to though when I am not feeling well. I don't have a favored brand that I can think of.
Since we're slowly coming up on the holidays, what is your favorite treat in December?
K- This is a tossup between Eggnog (that sweet nectar to which my soul craves...), and our Hanukkah Keglies (donuts)!!
G- Our homemade donuts that Katherine and I always make for Hanukkah, my goodness they are some good!!
Do you play board games and if so, what is your favorite?
K- Yes, I play board games! I'll pick Clue as a favorite; I just played this recently with some friends and it was really fun!
G- We don't play as many as I would like; out of the four of us still at home, only Katherine and I like playing games, but I do enjoy them. My favorite from our VERY limited collection would have to be either Monopoly or Balderdash, especially the latter!
What is your favorite movie that was made during the Hays Code, 1934 - 1968?
K- I just have to go with The Sound of Music. It is such a purely wonderful story!
G- I am not good with choosing favorites!! The Great Escape is the first one that comes to mind from those years. I love that one!!
Who is your favorite singer/group?
K- Hmm, I really love the Piano guys - I'd say they are probrobly the only group/artist I follow. Other than that I pick and choose songs I like from varied singers.
G- I have such a vast and varied favorite music that is randomly a song here and there from different artists, so I don't have a favorite. That being said, Josh Groban will always be a favorite as will Lev Tahor and Barbara Streisand.
Do you prefer CDs, digital music, or (GASP) vinyl?
K- As I tend to pick and choose from artists' music, I think I prefer digital music. That way I can get this song sung by that guy, that 4th song on that singer's album, etc.
G- I LOVE my vinyl records (I have a stash of classical and folk music), but right now digital music is the most convenient.
What got you started in the blogging realm?
K- I started discovering blogs and found blogger where you could seemingly easily set up your own blog and I said, "Hey, Grace - this might be fun"!
G- Katherine told me about a blog she found called Wonderland Creek and from there I took off reading a bunch of other blogs, then we said "We could do this and it would be so much fun!" And here we are!
