The Letter "Q" ~~ Rev 04 - Weekend Roundup and Reflections

The 43rd issue of Weekend Roundup for this year...
(THE SEVENTEENTH LETTER FOR THIS SERIES)
- the Letter "Q" Prompts are:
(A) Starts with the Letter "Q"; (B) A Favorite;
(C) "Q" for '"Q"uite' (Tom's choice); and (D) Reflections

(A) Starts with the Letter "Q": The fruit, Quince, starts with "Q".  Quince isn't very good eating raw, even with salt. But it is delicious when cooked, pie will be my choice. 
Quince Recipes googled, click here 


(B) A Favorite:  This Wednesday, October 30, is my birthday.  It's a big one in that I've lived so long but more so that the number does not end in zero or five.  

Still I might run away.  I have done that before and Mrs. Jim always comes with me.



Then after a nice meal comes a good nap!

(C) "Q" for '"Q"uiet' (Tom's choice):  Shhh!!!

Please be Quiet, dogs are sleeping.  Both of these dogs of ours are playing and sleeping NOW in Doggie Heaven.

(D) Reflections:  Window facing the Parking Lot at our local McDonald's. 


(E) A Lagniappe for you:  A couple of Halloween Holiday Items I wouldn't want you to miss.  The Blue Pumpkins  were for sale at our local Kroger Store and the cute Scare Crow was at our church lobby for a photo op for families.

My Two Questions (you can answer just one if you'd like):

1. Does the little celebration at Halloween make you feel happier? If not, why not? Yes. It reminds me of the time that I went Trick or Treating with my kids.  Now it's grandkids and greats but someone else goes with them.

2. What is the Whacky Halloween item that you have seen, or own?  Mine is actually cute, a couple of seedy scare crow folk, man an wife. 

Bonus Questions:
1. What is your favorite "Q" word?  "Quaint" is my favorite "Q" word because I love going to antique stores where perhaps I will find something old to add to my collection.  An old toy, preferably some with wheels.  Or a cup to add to my Texas Bluebonnet Cup collection.

2. What are your thoughts about Scare Crows?  I always wanted to make a real one but never got the job done.

Comments:
...Quince is the only produce item that came to mind for me too. Happy Birthday Jim, 39 again? Quiet can be so peaceful. Blue Pumpkins just don't do it for me! Thanks Jim for joining in, enjoy your Birthday.

 
1. Does the little celebration at Halloween make you feel happier? If not, why not? I don't care about Halloween at all. Never been a favorite holiday to me. We go hid on the boat.

2. What is the Whacky Halloween item that you have seen, or own? I don't have any Halloween decorations, but I've seen some gross food swerved for Halloween parties.

Bonus Questions:

1. What is your favorite "Q" word? Quality. There isn't a lot of that in some places.

2. What are your thoughts about Scare Crows? They are cool and I always wonder if they do the job they were intended to do.

1. Does the little celebration at Halloween make you feel happier? If not, why not? I love Halloween because of the colors and the fun- all little kids love Halloween - my grands and all so I guess I am a little kid.

2. What is the Whacky Halloween item that you have seen, or own? Hmm - I can't think of the wackiest right now.

Bonus Questions:

1. What is your favorite "Q" word? Quilt. I love quilts - can't make one - but would love one. $$$$

2. What are your thoughts about Scare Crows? They have brains! lol - do you get it?

HAPPY 39th BIRTHDAY TO YOU THIS WEEK!

Happy birthday Jim!
 
Happy birthday! Quince (in Finnish kvitteni) and quaint (in Finnish erikoinen) were new words to me, had to google:) I don't celebrate Halloween, it is not so big in Finland. It is lovely to have photos of those darlings that play now in the Doggie Heaven <3
