Monday, Monday

Monday Quiz About Me is hosted by Heather and Wayne at Acting Balanced.
Here are FOUR QUESTIONS that everyone can answer and then you have the option to add a fifth question of your own for those who are visiting your blog to answer in the comment section, along with commenting on the four standard questions you answered!

1. Happy February!  It's Canned Food Month... who knew?  Do you can your own foods? Do you eat canned foods?
Yes, I do can foods...this year we canned Pickled Beets, Relish, Vegetable Soup, and Apples..........We do eat canned foods.

2. February 3rd is also the day the music died - Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and the Big Bopper died in a plane crash in 1959. -what other great musicians would you like to honor today?
I don't get this question......Are we honoring other musicians who died on this date or just musicians in general.....
3. Do you listen to the radio?  Internet radio?
I listen to Pandora sometimes.........and occasionally, I listen to radio but not so much lately....
4. Both Wiarton Willie (Canada) and Punxsutawney Phil (US) saw their shadows and predict six more weeks of winter - do you agree?
Yes, since it is actually 7 weeks until the first day of Spring......do they ever predict anything else?

5. My Question: February is Heart Month......How do you celebrate Valentine's Day and what do you do for your Heart to keep it healthy?

We had an uneventful weekend....and no, I didn't watch the Super Bowl.......Our cable provider is switching to all digital soon and has said we all must have an adapter for all our televisions.....so we order them, install them and followed the steps to activate them, then nothing, no signal........after several frustrating hours of trying to figure out if we did something wrong, we called our provider and they tried to activate them and finally said that something was wrong with the adapters and they would send someone out to hook us up......next Saturday...
We had a nice rain yesterday and today is a bright cloudy day.......have you seen any Daffodils peeking up? I don't usually look forward to Spring so much because Summer follows quickly behind, too quickly....this year I'll definitely be happy when winter is over because of the cold temperatures we've had.

  2. Your cable provider certainly doesn't appear to be in any hurry to provide service :(

    As for Valentine's Day, yes, we celebrate on a small scale. I usually bake Ed a heart-shaped German Chocolate cake, and he gives me a gift of flowers or something. Last year, he gave me a greenhouse, this year a tree (early gift).

    As for my heart, I hate exercise, so I don't do it. I do enjoy working in the garden and the yard, so that's my form of exercise. I try to watch my diet, but, unfortunately, fried foods are among my favorites, and I do eat them--but I only use canola oil.

  3. I don't think we have daffodils in AZ...at least, not wild ones. I will now be on the look out.

  4. I've never canned anything but would like to. I do eat some store bought canned goods but nearly as may as we use to. I don't listen very often to the radio but I do love music. I like to go out to eat for Valentine's day but as the years move forward it is not as important to me anymore. I really want to be appreciated and loved on normal days. I work very hard to eat a heart healthy diet. I have high blood pressure and take medication. My mother died of a massive heart attack and so did her dad. What I don't do is get the proper exercise to help my heart so I need to get my act together. Sorry about your cable service.
