Smiley Saturday - Talk Amongst Yourselves
So this week’s Smiley Saturday, I’m giving you the chance to make me smile. We all know how much comments make bloggers smile. Let’s see if we can break this blogs record for the most number of comments on a blog post.
I’ve seen this done on other blogs and I’m shamelessly pinching it (as you do in the blogging world
). It’s an ongoing interview that takes place in the comments section of a post. I start by asking a question. The first person to comment answers that question and then asks one of their own. The next person answers their question and asks another. And on it goes.
Over the next few days, instead of looking for a new blog post, come back and read any comments that have been added. And feel free to join in more than once.
There is one tiny snag to this idea. If you’ve never commented before, your comment will go to moderation and not be seen until I get a chance to approve it when I get back. My apologies to anyone who falls into this category. I can’t do anything about it without risking the comments section filling up with spam over the next few days.
Alrighty, to the first question:
“Describe one of your funniest moments”
(note: the questions don’t have to be related to smiling - you can ask anything you like of the next commenter)
Remember, answer the question in the comment above yours (ie - that last comment that has been left) and then ask one in preparation for the next commenter to answer.
For those participating in Smiley Saturday - go ahead and add your link to the linky below as normal. Don’t forget to visit and comment on other participants posts.
Happy Smiley Saturday and I’ll catch up with you all soon.

I blogged about one of my funniest moments for Smiley Saturday today. Yesterday my hubby and I had each other in stitches of laughter trying to figure out how to work FILs coffee machine, we succeeded in getting coffee out of the high tech gadget but it was cold.
Next Question - How do you like your coffee?
I dont. Coffee is EWWW gross. LOL.
Next Question - What did you crave while pregnant??
(I ask this becuase a) I am pregnant, but b) Coffee makes me want to vomit if its in the same room as me while pregnant, a big problem when DH drinks 8-10cups a day).
Amy - I craved coffee
Lucky for me my blood pressure was so low that the doctors were telling me to drink caffeinated drinks (in moderation) and eat salt (in moderation).
Next Question - What is your junk food preference?
Junk food ? let me think, chips ?
My smiley post is ready for inspection !
Next Question : What kind of weather do you have ? (Talking about weather is always a nice subject !)
Today Lithgow is doing its best at “If you dont like the weather go inside for 5 minutes and try again, chances are it will be different”.
It was pouring rain overnight, then Bright and Sunny earlier and now we are just cloudy and coolish. LOL. We are yet to have snow, but it wouldn’t suprise me.
Next Question: What kind of weather do you prefer??
Hot all the way for me… I LOVE summer. Can cope with extreme heat if I can escape it a little at night, but the perfect day for me would be sunny and about 27-32 degrees… perfect.
What is your star sign and do you believe in them??
I’m a Leo, and no I don’t believe them, but they’re fun to read.
what a great idea this is.
If it was made possible to live on the moon, would you go?
I would love to go to the moon. What an experience. It would have to be like a modern dome city with all the gadgets.
My question is …..What exotic land would you like to visit? Also where do you live now?
So I answer the one above and add my own question, right? I’ve not come across one of these before.
Going to the moon, or anywhere else if I was on my own……I’d be off on a rocket before you could spit out beetlejuice.
Question of my own = how many things do you have in your immediate vicinity around your computer / on you desk?
Cheers
Ohmygosh … too many to COUNT! I have serious clutter issues, but I’m working on them … honestly ;–)
My Smiley Saturday is up at Small Reflections … hope you can drop by.
What plans do you have for the weekend?
Hugs and blessings,
Currently being grateful that someone else has too many items to count as well, LOL.
As for the weekend plans, Umm its a weekend?? My DH works rotating shift work so we dont really notice. I will tomorrow as the public holiday means no daycare
Otherwise its just another normal day or three in the household here. May go to church a bit later. But otherwise quiet time at home. May try and find my desk, Giggles.
Next Question: Should we get a holiday for the Queens B’day not anywhere related to her B’day and we celebrate us rather than her??
My plans for the weekend involve spending as much time with my family as possible. Father in law is currently in the palliative care stages of cancer so we spend our days with him. I might even wash some dishes soon
Next Question - how do you feel about fruit in meat dishes? (like pineapple pieces in curry or apricots with chicken).
I’m for fruit in meat dishes in general.
And I put fruit in my salads too.
Do you prefer tomato or white or cheese sauce on your pasta?
I actually like both as long as the tomatoes are chunky.
Who or what do you enjoy taking pictures of?
I like to take pictures of Caspar (my almost 2yo). In fact, he is almost the only thing I take pictures of. But I have to be honest I say that I prefer being in front of the camera and having lots of pictures taken of me. Cos I’m vain.
What is your secret pleasure? (Like, watching soaps, or pulling the labels of bottles, or something…
)
My secret pleasure is checking out real estate on the web. Houses for sale. Big old farmhouses. Then I start planning furniture placements and veggie garden plantings. And praying to win the lotto.
Where do you prefer to swim? Beach or swimming pool? And why?
I prefer to swim at the beach because my puppy loves swimming in the ocean, but is scared to swim in pools. Go figure! Plus I love scuba diving and being in the ocean makes me remember great diving memories
What is the most adventurous thing you have ever done?
I don’t know if it was adventurous or stupid but we moved across the nullarbor with a 2 year old and a newborn baby…what were we thinking? The 2 year old was revolting for 2 more years, then when she settled down we moved back again!
What do you do to comfort a friend who is down?
Depends on the friend. Some prefer sitting in silence, some get a cup of tea, some get coffee and cake, ALL get a sympathetic ear. I’m not the hugging type but occasionally I’ll hand one out.
Movies/TV shows: science fiction/fantasy or comedy?
All of the above!! lol
tic tacs or chewing gum?
Tic tacs!
If I chew on gum for too long I feel sick.
Worst job you’ve ever had?
Worst job? In a chicken processing place. I was on one of those lines where headless chickens were hung up by their feet and moving along a conveyor type thing, we girls had to check them to make sure there were no feathers left on the outside and no guts left on the inside. I lasted one shift and never went back.
Carpet or bare boards?
Carpet in winter and bare boards in summer. Or if I had to choose then I would say boards and a few rugs around the place.
Colour of your first car??
