7) Crazy Sam is eating Trader Joe's Snickerdoodles as she composes this. What's the last snack food you ate? Chocolate Mochi. This Japanese ice cream treat is awesome! I just heard that the businesswoman and philanthropist who ran the Mochi ice cream manufacturer, Frances Hashimoto, died this week.
8) Do you worry about preserving endangered species? Or do you believe in survival of the fittest? Yes. I worry about the polar bears and the big cats. I hate the idea that future generations won't see them.
9) Would you ever hire a lawyer who runs commercials on TV? Do you know anyone who has? No. It's hard to take those TV lawyers seriously, isn't it?

I know exactly what you mean about missing your mother. Someday's while I am in the shower I think of something I need to tell her and then I remember she is gone....she has been gone for almost 6 years now. Hope your weekend is good.
ReplyDeleteI've never tried Mochi! I'll have to look for that. :) A loss of a parent is hard and the blues hit right out of thin air.
ReplyDeleteTrader Joes sells Mochi. I am always thinking about telling mom something and then remember she's gone. I am so sorry about the things I've missed sharing with her the last 10 years.
ReplyDeleteMy mother passed away seven years ago and my father six years ago and I still find myself thinking I have to ask them... Then I remember.
ReplyDeleteWhichever happens to be least convenient.... I can so relate!

I've never seen the Mochi stuff, but I think I'd love it. I thought of John Lennon, too.
ReplyDeletelol @ #2
ReplyDeleteWhy have I never heard of Mochi? Looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteI thought a lot about the endangered species question. I just realized that I support saving when it's man who is causing the problem, but not if it's nature. Weird, no?
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea how much I miss my mother. It's been almost 3 years. I'm at the 'gotta move on with my life' stage.
ReplyDeleteHave a great evening!
Oh I need to try that Chocolate Mochi.. I'm anything chocolate mocha!
