three

I like traveling Greyhound every once in a while.
I use to be a big fan of romance novels then switched to mystery over the last few years so mysteries would be my pick.
Mae, if I took a magazine with me it would be Red Book

What genre of music is your first choice?

Rock (classic)

Hip Hop

Soul (like the old R&B)

soul

which mardi gras color do you like the best - purple, gold, green?

This one is a no-brainer for me. Green of course. I will say purple is a very close second.

Here goes for Mae: Redbook for the magazine. Purple is my top pick of the colors although I like all three together.

Gotta go with soul music as my top pick of the music question.

Going to the store in a bit and buying some juices for my family. When buying this type of beverage, which type of container do you usually get?

box type

plastic container

glass container

Side note here: My mom's surgery went well although her eyes are still pretty blurry. Doctor says it will take a few weeks to get better. I am so glad to be home as our hotel room was so cold. I complained several times to the office but they really did not do much for my satisfaction. Another factor was the weather here is terrible right now so glad I was able to get home without any problems on the road.

Glad your mom surgery went well. And glad you made it home safety. Did you stay in a main stream hotel. You should get hold of their headquaters and let them know of the lack of service and treatment you got there. Maybe they will refund your money. Anyway if their customs aren't happy they should know.

I like the plastic containers best myself. They can't break like the glass ones and the boxes, though meant for kids still seems messing.

what is your favorite way to prepare and eat chicken? fry, grill outdoors, or bake in the oven.

Happy to hear your moms surgery went well. I can relate to her about blurry vision. It's been a week and I'm still seeing things blurry. I think once I stop using the eye drops it will get better. I will still need to get some glasses though because I do have a stygmatism in my left eye. Thankful to hear you are home safe and warm.

Now on to the game. Most of the juice I buy is in plastic containers so that's my pick. Of the ways to prepare and eat chicken it's a tie. I enjoy doing all three.

When to the store today and bought my mom some candy. (She loves her chocolate) There are so many types of candy to choose from. Which of these types of candy would you choose?

Mini bites

King size bars

Six pack

Fried Chicken is my favorite however if I am cooking it I usually bake it.

Mostly I get the 6 or 8 pack on the candies. They are smaller bars and usually one is enough to satisfy me for the moment.

Some commercials are really getting tiresome for me as they play them so often. Which of these ones would you like them to get rid of?

Insurance (progressive, nationwide, farmers, state farm, allstate)

4G phone ads (at&t, verizon, sprint, etc)

Food ads (Jack in The Box, McDonalds, Pizza places, etc)

It's pretty much a tie. So tired of all of them.

Of these three judges from The Voice who is your favorite?

Blake Shelton

Cee Lo Green

Adam Levine

I like all three guys but think Blake Shelton might be the nicest one.

I heard some really disturbing news yesterday from my daughter. She says my mom is thinking of selling the house we live in which is making me so angry. Of course it will not be for awhile as she would lose so much money doing it. When this subject comes up I plan on doing my best to have her reconsider. Anyhow my question is this; which of these bugs you the most about moving?

packing everything up

moving it to a new place

looking for a new place to live

i love chocolate and like all three however going with the king size bar

it is a toss-up between the food and insurance ads i like most to get rid of.

Like all three judges, going with Adam Lavine for my favorite.

Worst part about moving is everything. I find it discouraging to look for a new place, and i hate packing and non-packing.

who makes the best chicken? Churches, Popeyes, KFC

I have moved so often over the years. For me it's always been the packing and unpacking that bugs me the most.

I've never eaten Popeye's Chicken so that leaves the choice between Churches and KFC. My pick: KFC

Which of these nuts do you think taste better when added to popcorn?

peanuts

cashews

walnuts

No contest, I think KFC has the best chicken of the three mentioned.

I can not eat popcorn anymore but when I did I think peanuts were the best with it.

Just found out I am finally going to get to see my great-grandson at the end of this month. I'm so excited! When preparing for a visit from someone what takes top priority in getting ready for the visit.

cleaning the house thoroughly

making sure you have enough food in stock

making plans of taking them to the most interesting parts of your town

with popcorn i take the peanuts

when getting ready for a visitor i think cleaning should take top priority

which is your favorite chocolate cereal? Cocoa Puffs ,Cocoa Pebbles, Cocoa Krispries

Sheesh! BUSY BUSY BUSY! I'm so worn out but also excited about this trip to Nevada.

Now on to the questions: It's a tie between cleaning thoroughly and making sure there is plenty of food in stock.

On the cereal question - none of the above. I love chocolate but don't like it in my cereal.

Another cereal question. Which of these cereals will you most likely eat?

Raisin Bran

Special K

Shredded Wheat

Will go with Cocoa Puffs on the first cereal question.

On Deni's I really like all three but Special K is the one I eat the most.

When using a sweetener which of these do you prefer?

regular sugar

honey

splenda or artifical sweetener

As much as I hate to admit I am all about the regular sugar. I have used artifical sweetners in the past but always go back to my regular sugar.

In your opinion, which one makes a better sandwich?

tuna salad

chicken salad

ham salad

cereal - out of those three i would either eat raisin bran or shredded wheat

regular sugar

best salad sandwich - tuna if it is done right, otherwise ham

which of this years 'bogus wildcards' is your favorite? (sorry don't have a clue what their names are)

I will go with chicken salad as the best for a sandwich although tuna is a close second.

In regards to Mae's question I think she is talking about the possible six the judges had re-sing to fill the last three spots of the top 13. I truly wish Reed Grimm had been chosen over Jeremy or DeAndre. Personally I think Adam Brock or Creighton Fraker should have been considered over Jeremy or DeAndre also. However of the three that did get one of the last three spots gotta go with Erika Van Pelt. The guys they picked did not interest me at all and obviously not America either since Jeremy Rosado was sent home this week.

To challenge our remaining 12 contestants on the show which of these themes would you pick overall?

heavy metal

rock

big band music

NOTE: I will be gone for a few days as I am leaving tomorrow for Nevada. Should be back on line by Wednesday (maybe). I will definitely keep track here as often as possible over the next few weeks. Now on to the questions.

I agree with all your potential choices Crystal. Reed, Creighton or Adam would have been much better picks over Jeremy Rosado. In answer to the question, I'm picking Erika Van Pelt as well.

I think big band music would be an awesome challenge for the contestants.

In choosing a book to read, which of these authors is your first pick?

James Patterson

Nora Jones

John Grisham

I have read alot of James Patterson so going with him.

I see you will be gone on your trip. I actually called your cell today and left a message so hope to talk to you soon.

Seems like my skin has been so dry lately so using alot of lotion (different brands). Which of these ingredients do you think soften the best?

shea butter

lanolin

aloe vera

Enjoyed our phone conversation Crystal. Looking forward to meeting you.

I like aloe vera for different reasons so it's my pick.

I am really enjoy spending time with my grandson Bryce. How do you like spending time with young ones?

Watching movies

Reading stories

Arts and Craft projects

It's a tie between watching movies and reading stories as we actually do not do any arts and crafts projects together.

After our conversation yesterday it seems both of us are excited about the newest additions to our families. Which part of a new baby's presence do you enjoy most?

feeding a newborn

watching when they first crawl

enjoying their first laughter

OMG, this is a three way tie. But I will say I really enjoy watching the little one sleep. They are such angels when they sleep.

What do you like best about chocolate?

Baking with it

Eating it

Sharing it

Naturally eating it for sure although I will share it if necessary. I rarely bake anymore so that is out.

Got a great deal on a beef roast over the weekend. If you were preparing this how would you do it?

slow-cooker

bake in a seasoning bag

cut it up and cook it in stew on top on a burner

If I can stick it in my slow cooker that's how I do it. I can pretty much say that's how I enjoy cooking just about anything because I get lazy when it comes to cooking up a meal. LOL

We went shopping before Kathrine's trip to the hospital. Phillip loves eating vegetables so we looked at some beautiful peppers. Which ones do you like?

Green

Red

All of them
