This is a new challenge for me …. an episode of Truthful Tuesday. The idea is to respond to the question (or questions) being asked and to be 100% truthful in our responses. No glib answers, no funny business, no fibs. Just raw honesty.
For this week’s Truthful Tuesday, our host Frank says:
We’re going to play a game of “This or That.” Even if something else is truly your favorite, the idea isn’t necessarily to get to the favorite, but to reveal which of the two options you would prefer. I will accept a vote of neither if there is truly no preference between the two listed, but don’t provide a third alternative.
Spring or Summer? Spring
Summer or Autumn? Summer
Autumn or Winter? Autumn
Spring or Autumn? Spring
Summer or Winter? Summer
Spring or Winter? Spring
Picnic in the park or Backyard barbecue? Backyard barbecue. I’m not a sit-in-the-grass type of girl. I don’t like bugs or even the thought of something crawling on me. I love a good grilled steak or burger and a nice wine or ice cold beer, sitting on my deck, watching the birds, talking to my husband. I like being able to go inside whenever I want to and not having to hunt for a bathroom or chance getting caught in the rain.
Dining outside or Dining inside? Dining inside for all the reasons I mentioned above. I’ll eat outside before the mosquitoes come out or the humidity sets in but after that, I’m inside watching the ballgame.
Cooking out (backyard grill) or Eating out (restaurant)? Well, obviously it depends on the occasion but I’d have to say “cooking out (backyard grill)”. I’m well beyond that point in my life where I need or want to get dressed to go out with a bunch of people I don’t know or like and having to pay ridiculous prices for food I can probably cook just as well at home. However, I do enjoy going to a restaurant for a special occasion and have a few coming up over the next couple of months that I’m really looking forward to.
Fresh cut flowers or Potted plants? Definitely potted plants! I have a green thumb and many plants in my sunroom. I welcome the gift of a plant over flowers any day.

I’m hoping to go to a beach barbecue at the end of this month. I hope it keeps dry.

The end of March is a bit early for beach barbecues here.
I hope it’s a lovely day for you!

This is my favorite time of year; it’s all about possibilities, no weeds, no bugs, no boots, we’ll put up with mud, but that’s ok with me. Sometimes, we even have sun.

Sometimes we have sun, just not today.

I’d have gone with your answers too. I’ve never heard that song by The Knickerbockers before. Oh, wait, I have, but it was called I Want To Hold Your Hand by an obscure band called The Beatles.

Confession time. For years (pre-internet) I thought this was the Beatles and could never understand why I couldn’t find this song on any of their albums. I think we all were fooled for a while. They even scream like little Paulie! 🤣

Not something I normally do and probably won’t do again but writing about the seasons seemed rather innocuous to me.
Then again, there’s always someone with a different opinion happy to pick a fight! 😂

Why would anyone pick a fight when you write about your preferences? I thought it was great.
