Today’s Plinky.com prompt was, “Share your favorite seasonal food item.” Here’s my response and the Flickr.com pic I selected to illustrate it. ;o)

Ringo’s Fruits Cake

I am the only human being on the planet who truly, genuinely adores rum-soaked homemade fruitcake at Christmas (or anytime). Little old ladies who can’t give the stuff away to anyone else ADORE me. I particularly remember how Miss Rose Peevey, a friend of my grandmom’s, always made it.

Today’s Plinky.com prompt was, “What greatest hits album could you listen to on repeat?” Here’s my response and the album cover art that I selected to illustrate it. ;o)

I could listen to Simon & Garfunkel’s Greatest Hits over and over and over. I’m a total square, but that’s how I roll. If I had to pick ONE album, that would be it.

If it’s any consolation to the hipsters out there, I also like a lot of the modern “emo pop” (God help me) that my 14-year-old introduces me to, but give me Simon & Garfunkel, CCR, John Denver, Joni Mitchell, the Carpenters, or Arlo Guthrie ANY DAY. Well … and throw in some early Eagles, Meat Loaf and ZZ Top too. Just sayin’.

Today’s Plinky.com prompt was, “What Olympic sport do you most enjoy watching?” Here’s my response and the Flickr.com pic I selected to illustrate it. ;o)

I love the strength and precision of gymnastics and the artistry involved. But I almost never watch the Olympics because the tension is unbearable, fearing that someone who’s worked for years might slip up and make a mistake. (Of course, I’m the gal who has to turn off sitcoms when I know trouble is coming for the characters, because I can’t stand THAT either. *eye roll*)
