Preferably something easy, like a salad. I feel like I've brought a tomato and mozzarella tray to a few BBQs.

1. When I was in grade school, I loved the book Frightful's Mountain by Jean Craighead George. It uses an engaging story about a falcon and her "person" to teach about ecology and conservation. I still have a soft spot for that book.
2. Onions

1. Fear
2. Including or in addition to English? If we're going with in addition to English, I'll pick Spanish, French, and Russian.
3. I'm going to exclude Broadway, because that would be a LOOOONG list. Tom Hanks, Julie Andrews and Jimmy Stewart are standing out to me as all-time Hollywood faves. But I also have a semi-permanent crush on Lucas Till.
4. 2.75
5. That I showed the love of Christ to everyone around me.

This is SUCH an interesting question! There are so many quirky, odd, fun things you could use as a planter. I've seen people plant things in shoes, and that's kinda cute.

1. Probably Wishbone! But I really liked Tom and Jerry and Scooby-Doo, too!
2. A cop, maybe? I've always had a fascination with law enforcement--there's so much potential in it to do good. But it's also a really tough job, and I'm not sure I could handle it long-term.
3. Neither? I'm not really a hot-weather person, and I tend to get really dehydrated and bored at the beach. Mountains could be fun, but I think I'd get bored with that too after a day or two. I'm also not a big fan of 'roughing it,' so I guess it also depends on what kind of accommodations there were. My ideal vacation is a city with some interesting history and plenty of different things to do.
4. A recliner for sure--just not an overly fluffy one
5. Giraffes, okapis or red pandas

Definitely hanging out with and spoiling kids you don't have to keep!

1. I'm in Matthew right now. I'm trying to move slowly through the gospels and take a really close look at the life of Jesus as it applies to living as a Christian in today's world. Along the way, I'm also trying to address questions I have about certain parts of scripture, such as why Jesus said, "For to the one who has, more will be given..., but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away."

hi @ByeByeBrownie,

if you were forced to decide one us national monument to be converted to a giant minion to appeal to the youths®, which one would it be? personally, i would probably get rid of the washington monument because it's kind of goofy looking and also george washington owned slaves and that's nasty! not cool!
