G. Gain a pound or Gain some money?
H. Hop on one foot or Jumping jacks?
I. Ice cream or Ice cones (aka snow cone)?
J. Juice or Water?
K. Kiss a frog or Hug a bear?

And here are my answers:

A. Attached or Single?
I've been married for almost forty years

B. Blue or Black?
Blue

C. Cats or Dogs?
I don't want any pets but definitely cats.

D. Down 10 flights of stairs or Up to 2 flights?
Tough choice, I have a bad back and have to avoid stairs at all cost.

E. Email or Snail mail??
Both have their charms.

F. Fairytales or Nonfiction?
Another tough one. I think if it's only fairytales, I'd go for non-fiction.

G. Gain a pound or Gain some money?
What a question! Would anyone go for more weight? I know I don't

H. Hop on one foot or Jumping jacks?
I used to love jumping jacks.

I. Ice cream or Ice cones (aka snow cone)?
Cream though it has to be lactose free.

J. Juice or Water?
Water.

K. Kiss a frog or Hug a bear?
Definitely not the former.

L. Lose your heart or Lose your mind?
I lost my heart a long, long time ago.

M. Music or Silence?
Mostly music.

N. Nuts or Chips?
Definitely Nuts.

O. Oatmeal or Cereal?
Cereal. I love the crunch

P. Pizza or Spaghetti?
Pizza.

Q. Queen for a day or Quiet for a day?
Quiet.

R. Rain or Sun?
Rain. I love the rain, hate the sun.

S. Steak or Salad?
Both are nice but generally, salad.

T. Talk to a stranger for a minute or talk to your enemy for an hour?
I love talking to strangers but trying to convince an enemy that he is wrong also has its perks.

U. Unicorns or Unicycles?
Unicorns, if they're of the "so fluffy, I'm gonna die" quality. ;)

V. Vanilla or Chocolate?
Chocolate

W. Walk or Run?
Walk

X. Xray vision or Power to fly?
Power to fly.

Y. Yoga or the Gym?
Neither but if I had to, I'd go for Yoga.

Z. Zipper or Velcro
Zipper.

So, thank you, Lissa and Lectrice for this interesting challenge.

    1. Haha, thanks, Kitten. I take it you also liked the film?

    2. Loved the first film. The rest have been a little hit & miss. Still LOVE the Minions though. Fantastic idea. The 'fluffy' comment was a standard response in our 'group' to questions for a while. As, of course, was the shout of *squirrel* (from 'Up') whenever we spotted something - often a squirrel @ work - out of the corner of our eye.

    3. Same here, Kitten. I have only seen the first and the second, I believe, gave up after that. But, same as you, I just love the minions. What's not to like? And "Up" is one of my favourite animated films ever.

  2. A - Forty years is such a long time. I hope they are happy ones.

    B - Blue seems to be most people's choice.

    C - I think too cats are easier to be around but that's probably because I think dogs are too noisy

    D - I think you might want to take the elevator.

    E - Oh yes, they do.

    F - I don't read a lot of non-fiction but they can be enjoyable.

    G - Perhaps if you're a person who can't gain weight, you might think differently.

    H - Jumping jacks is more fun, I think.

    I - I haven't try any lactose free ice cream so I can't say they are better than regular ice cream but they must taste the same, right?

    J - There is water in juice... it's a silly question.

    K - So a bear then?

    L - To your husband I imagine?

    M - Sometimes silence can be good but music seems to call out our moods.

    N - So you're definitely nuts? haha, sorry, dumb joke.

    O - This reminds me of a cereal commercial where this person only hears the crunching of the cereal he is eating instead of the words someone is saying to them.

    P - Pizza's my choice too.

    Q - You can be queen and have a quiet day.

    R - Rain is good. We all need the rain.

    S - Salad for me too as I think steak is so hard to get right.

    T - I like the idea of an enemy fuming for being wrong.

    U - Oh yes, unicorns can be fluffy...

    V - Sometimes I think chocolate too and sometimes not.

    W - I love to walk as well.

    X - I think we all choose the power to fly because xray version isn't all that useful unless you want to see through walls and spy on your neighbors.

    Y - I think yoga is better because you don't have to learn how to use all those equipments aside from your body.

    Z - Zipper for me too.

    Thanks for answering these sometimes absurd questions.

    Have a lovely day.

  3. Thanks, Lissa. And the same to you.
    Nice comments. I'd love to react ot some of them.
    A - Oh yes, indeed. I've got the best husband in the world
    B - My favourite colours are green and blue, so no big decision to be made here.
    D - I do, as often as I can. Or take long detours if it means I don't have to use the stairs.
    G - True. I used to be in that position but that's ages ago, not any more after I had my children.
    I - It tastes the same if it's made with lactose free milk or cream, otherwise it can taste like whatever milk substitute was used, especially if not much of the flavour is added. However, still preferable to all the disadvantages a lactose intolerant person has to go through when eating/drinking the "real deal"
    K - Definitely.
    L - You imagine correctly.
    N - Ha, you got me there. Definitely nuts. 😉
    Q - I guess the queen would love a quiet day from time to time.
    V - Always, always chocolate for me.

  4. Fun, fun, fun! I had a great time reading your answers!
    You hate the sun? 😲 I love sunshine!
    I also love the crunch of cereal, and unicorns.

    1. Thanks, Lectrice. I understand why people love the sun. But it always gives me migraines when it's too hot, so I guess you can understand why I don't belong to them. When it rains, I feel free and I can breathe.
      And yes, who doesn't like unicorns? Especially the "soooo fluffy" ones. ;)

      Delete
    2. I understand, being exposed to high temperatures and spending too much time in the hot sun can be harmful for some. Sunshine does make me very happy, though!

      Delete
    3. Well, we all need the sun, I am aware of that. But we also need the rain, so I guess it's nice that some of us like one and others the other.

      Delete
    4. Oh, and I'm very light-skinned, so any short exposure and I am sunburned. Hubby has darker and less sensitive skin and he tans easily, so we always get asked whether we went on holidays separately. LOL

  5. I'm with you on the lactose free ice-creams - and so so happy they were invented. I love! ice-cream. But I love the sun, it's a great excuse for having yet an ice-cream.

    1. So you're a fellow sufferer, Charlotte? I am glad they were invented. Mind you, most of the parlors in our area only have lactose free fruit ice cream, and sometimes chocolate but that's about it. I have to go to a larger place in order to find other flavours for me.
      And as to sun and ice cream, I don't need an excuse to have it. LOL
      Thanks for your comment.
