SHARE YOUR WORLD – 2016 WEEK 23

SHARE YOUR WORLD – 2016 WEEK 23

What was one of your first moneymaking jobs (other than babysitting or newspaper delivery)?

I worked as an all-purpose clerk at the local drugstore. Back then the store had, in addition to the regular stuff you find in a Walgreen’s today, a soda fountain. In addition to helping customers and ringing up sales, I also made milk shakes, sundaes, coffee, and sandwiches. It was my first real job, and I loved it.

What is your favorite month of the year?

The current month. I don’t mean to be flippant, but I’m so content with my life right now that every day seems like the best day so far. I love the change of seasons, and each month holds its own special secrets.

What three things in nature do you find most beautiful?

List at least five of your favorite spices? (excluding salt and pepper)

I prefer pretty bland food. I don’t even use table pepper except on sliced tomatoes. So I’m not sure if I can come up with five, but I’ll try.

(1) garlic
(2) cinnamon
(3) nutmeg
(4) cloves
(5) vanilla

Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

I’m grateful for almost everything, and I look forward to more of the same. (I would be especially grateful if the Mariners could start another winning streak.)

I hope everyone has a good week!
