Monday Mingle - November 16th

Monday Mingle


Welcome to Monday Mingle - November 16th!

If you'd like to join in the fun, do a short vlog on your blog, link up below in the linky, post the above button on your site and link to me. Each week we will have questions, subjects or ideas that we can all talk about on our vlog. Visit the other participants, learn about them and have fun! It's not too late - you can link up anytime during the week.

Would you like to submit a question for Monday Mingle? I will link to you and your site when your question is posted. Please submit your questions/ideas using this form:

Fill out my form!

This week's questions (courtesy of Mat and Erin from Mrs. Cox's Slice o' Heaven):

1. Have you ever gone streaking or skinny dipping? - from Mat (Erin's hubby LOL - I added the skinny dipping part)

2. If could invite any 5 people to dinner who would it be?

3. Would you rather ... have x-ray vision or bionic hearing?

4. When you tap your fingers... do you tap index finger to pinky finger? Vice versa? Or can you do both equally well? (Note, she and her hubby both do it differently LOL - this should be interesting) Feel free to show us!

5. Would you rather ... stand 4'1 or 7'9"?

6. Yes- an extra question (submitted by Shannon) What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish?








NEXT WEEK'S QUESTIONS:

We're mixing it up a bit this week - ALL ABOUT MARRIAGE/RELATIONSHIPS:
Speedy Cop would love to see the husband/partner's answers too - either via vlog or through you!


1. Men: When your spouse asks you "how does this outfit make me look" - how do you respond?

    Ladies:  Do you really want him to answer honestly?



2. Both: What is one thing you should always do to keep your spouse/partner happy? What do you do/say to avoid friction in your relationship?


3.  Both: What were the first thoughts about your spouse/partner  that came to mind when you first met him/her?


4.  Both:  What is your favorite physical feature of your spouse/partner?


5. Both: What are the key ingredients to a successful marriage/relationship?

6.  Are you ready for more Speedy Cop movie quotes?  

Note: I will remove any link that I find distasteful or not appropriate. This is a fun way to start the week!

Uhhh well. I've had the opportunity to do both, I just don't think there is ANY amount of liquid courage that would get me to do that in front of others.

That's an INTERESTING list for sure. Oh to be a fly on the wall for that dinner.

Pecan pie is SO good. I haven't had it in a while either... Funny, my sister Lyndsy mentioned wanting to make one last night. Sounds delicious.

Have a fabulous week!!

Jenn@ The Crazies said...

Pecan Pie is the best... my mom makes such a good one!! I would love to be invited to your dinner!! Off to bed.. will link mine in the morning...

Andrea Proulx said...

Ok, so Marc and I talked and we decided that you MUST share that recipe for Mashed Potatoes that includes sour cream AND cream cheese. He absolutely drooled over it.

I'm so glad Speedy Cop is home!!

By the way I love the new song intro!! It had me all sucked in.

Lauren said...

Wow, what a rock star list of people! That would be a fun dinner!

haha, yeah, I think being smaller would be way better. And ps, I'm 5'7" and very pleased with my altitude, lol.

Mmmm...pecan pie! SO good. Those pumpkin bars sound awesome, I'll go check those out!

Have a great week!

blueviolet said...

I did go skinnydipping once but I would never do it again.

I'm 5'2" also! This is exciting news!

You're going to have a ball on this trip!

I love pecan pie, it has been so long since I had a piece to enjoy. Maybe I will attempt to make some for Thanksgiving. The mash potatoes with cream cheese and sour cream, delicious! I make them like that too...add on the calories and make them yummy!

I enjoyed joining in this week. Maybe I will get my husband to join in next week, I am not sure if he is willing. I guess I have all week to try to convince him.

MaryRC said...

did you just love the other boleyn girl.. LOVED that book.
5'6 is over rated :)
love pumpkin bars too.
hope your dad stays well..
happy mingle.

Great Mingle Theme Song! Tall or short, very tough decision and I totally agree on no x-ray vision. No thanks! Glad the hubby's home :)

Annie said...

I loved the Mingle theme song! That was fun!
I don't know who Tom Jones is...off to google it!
Christopher Walken is interesting...so is Meryl Streep. You were right, this is an interesting list! Anne Bolin, I need to learn more about her, I only know a few facts.

So far you are the 3rd girl to choose the hearing....It will be interesting to hear if anyone chooses x ray vision! LOL

I agree with your height answer...I would rather be a petit girl too! 5'4 is the perfect height, that is my height LOL :)
Sour cream and cream cheese potatoes? Oh now that i HAVE to try! I LOVE pecan pie! you'll hear that in my mingle :)
We are going to miss Greg :(
I'm off to enter that giveaway!

One Cluttered Brain said...

HEY! I can't watch Greg's video? Anyone else experiencing difficulties? I left a comment so maybe he will email me back.

Like this idea Jen. So much fun!

TellingDad said...

Look at you with the intro! How fancy! How'd you get that "mingle" dealio going? You're stepping up your game, lol!

I was surprised to hear that you've never streaked or skinny dipped...you seem like you totally would, lol, being so outgoing and all. Then again, like you said, maybe you did and didn't realize it.

I KNEW Tom Jones would be there after your previous mingle with him suntanning. :)

If Clint Eastwood shows up, call me, because I'll want a seat. Even if it's at the kiddie table.

No way on hearing! I don't want to hear being given chores to do. X-ray vision is the way to go, baby!

5'2" is pretty short but 6'7" is pretty tall so perhaps we can average out. I'm 17 inches taller than you, lol! Look forward to meeing you though in real life. Someday. Perhaps if Clint shows up.

Have a great Thanksgiving and I'll see everyone in about 3 weeks for another Mingle!

One Cluttered Brain said...

Who is speedy cop? does he have a blog? and what are his movie quotes anyway?

The Mommy-Files said...

Happy Monday! Merryl Streep would be awesome to have to dinner.

I'd rather be a shortie also - lol!!!

Mmmm....ham...I've never had mashed potatoes with cream cheese in them. That sounds really good!

Happy Monday girlie!!!

Vic said...

Happy Monday....I'm just now learning about this vlogging....neat-O:) Maybe I will try one soon!!!....Fun Stuff Here Lady<3

xoxo

Cheryl said...

What a great dinner list. Those mashed potatoes sound so good. My whole family loves Pecan pie, but I have no idea how to make it!
Happy Monday Mingling!

Amy said...

If Christopher Walken came to my dinner I would be laughing so hard I think soda would come out of my nose, I love him!

LOL I'm with you on index to pinkie, it just feels WEIRD!

I didn't think about the woman aspect when thinking about being 7'+ that would be awfully intimidating when finding a date.

You have the cutest laugh ever :D Loved your Monday Mingle this week!

CaseyDeuce said...

I hope you know all this food talk this week is making me drool...

So glad SpeedyCop is back and that you're dad is doing okay!!

Happy MM!!

Badger Momma said...

Love your list of dinner guests.

Another thing we have in common - I'm short too! 5'1" here. Maybe 5'2" on a good day. :)

Oh and pecan pie.... Yumm! I haven't had that in quite a while. Sounds like a great dish to add to our Thanksgiving meal!

Rob said...

Great Monday Mingle.

I love how you were able to do it outside and the weather looked beautiful. It is a little cold here in MD.

Thanks for letting us participate in our 1st Monday Mingle today. We are looking forward to next week.

Melissa, Multi-Tasking Mama said...

I am a big Meryl Streep fan too! Thanks for hosting, this is my first week.

LT said...

Love the dinner list! I would so love to be able to chat with Clint Eastwood!!!

I didn't even consider how hard it would be to buy clothes if you were super tall or super short! I still don't want to be either!

You Thanksgiving dinner line up sounds awesome! I love Pecan Pie, well and Pumpkin too, it is so nice you have some special memories associated with it!

Hope to be here next week, if hubby agrees to talk some...maybe I'll show him Mat and Erin..LOL
And bring on the Speedy Cop quotes!

Love the intro by the way! Have a great week!

Mrs. Fish aka Two Fish said...

Modest my ass!! LOL

You totally scared the bejeezus out of me with the mingle jingle!

WEWT for Tom Jones. Ha ha your Tommy. Yes Christopher Walken...fabulous!

Yeah see...no go on the nekkid people! Ewwww

I am so happy to see you smile! I now last week was rough for you! ((HUGS))

OMG I love Pecan pie...that's my signature dessert! So glad for Mondays!

Kristin said...

So glad that SpeedyCop is back! Glad you're smiling again.

Now off to go munch. food!

mommablogsalot said...

There are a lot of 5'2" people out there - or at least three of us :)

All these Thanksgiving dishes are making me hungry!

JamericanSpice said...

Your intro totally freaked me out! it's 3am here and everyone asleep and speakers are up and I'm like scared out of my wits. lol

I agree Meryl streep would be a gal to hang out with :)

Oh yes I love Clint Eastwood! He is totally cool.

I think most men would choose x-ray vision. They'd just be walking around smiling zombies..

When I first had pecan pie, I wanted to eat the whole thing! I hope I make or get some this TG.

Glad your husband is home and things are calm.

Good to see you again Speedy.

Have a lovely weekend.

Bill and Lorie Shewbridge said...

What a great vlog! You should try skinny dipping, it's kind-of fun and freeing, just like I told Erin.

I'd love to be at that dinner - your guests are really a cool bunch of people. I think you sort of look like Meryl Street.

I'm glad your hubby is back and so happy your daddy is out of the hospital and feeling better.

Sorry it took me so long to get by this week, but glad I was able to see it this week - I LOVE my new laptop!

Have a great weekend... talk to you soon.
