Monday Meme

*Happy Memorial Day!*

*****

I didn't really have anything to talk about today so I'm doing a Monday Meme instead.

1.  If you could have any job in the world, what would it be?


Honestly, I don't know!  I can't even decide on a major.  I used to think that I wanted to work for a title company, but could never get hired on with one.  Sometimes I think I want a government job, one where I can help people.

2.  Do you regift the items you receive that you don't like?


Sometimes!  I used to do it regularly, but then I always worried that I would give someone their gift back accidentally or that the person who gave it to me would ask to see it.  I don't do it as much anymore.  Do you regift?

3.  Would you rather eat a stick of butter or snort a tablespoon of salt?


Neither one, really!  lol  But if I have to choose one over the other, I'd go with the stick of butter.  It doesn't specify that I can't spread on bread or crackers, so that's exactly what I'd do.

4.  Show and tell.  What comes to mind first when you see this picture?  Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.  

I never met my mom's mom (my grandmother passed away when my mom was a teenager.)  I guess they used to can a lot before my grandmother got sick.  When I look at this, it's what I would imagine their pantry to look like once they were done.  My mom didn't can when I was a kid, so this certainly doesn't look like any of our pantries over the years!  

It also reminds me of Y2K.  I went to a friend's house for a visit in 1999 and they had a whole spare room filled with foods and bottled waters.  His parents, the mom especially, were both super nervous about the year 2000.  I always wondered what they did with all that food once they realized that things weren't going to change.
