Are there any activities or hobbies you’ve outgrown or lost interest in over time?

Let’s see now… activities or hobbies I’ve either outgrown or lost interest in… hmmmmmm.

Without a check-list we won’t know for sure, will we?

So, what with me being such an accommodating individual, I’ve put forth the effort to ensure that my answer to the prompt is an honest one.

I’ve made a list that will just about cover it all, I think…

Baking – Check!

    Reading books – Check!

    Dreaming – Check!!!!!

    I don’t outgrow things, though I do overcome them…

    I do not lose interest in things that I love, though sometimes I have to let them go…

    What I am is a child at heart, and I probably always will be…

    Here, take a cookie or two…

    I got excited and made too many cookies this morning, so take as many as you like.

    Depends on what’s being lottered…

    What would you do if you won the lottery?
    View all responses

    While most may assume the lottery to mean cash money, there are a number of other possibilities…

    Such as peanuts! Why can’t there be a lottery for a lifetime supply of peanuts?

    Or flowers, perhaps…

    What about a lifetime supply of all the most beautiful spring blooms? Wouldn’t that be heavenly? Well, at least the fragrance would seem sent from above, in my humble opinion.

    Then there’s babies…

    Ok, so maybe that’s going a bit too far… but you can’t blame a girl for trying!

    Now, books as a lottery?

    SOLD!!!

    Since the likelihood of an All-You-Can-Read book lottery isn’t that high for me, at this moment, how about we settle on a Cookie Lottery…

    Yep! If it ain’t broke, then don’t try to fix it!

    Uh Oh! They want another list…

    What books do you want to read?

    Honestly, I can come up with a much bigger list of books that I’d like to read again. From what’s currently being published willy nilly, I can’t say that I’ve any list at all!

    Why do they ask these kinds of questions, anyway? Personally, I think it feels like they’re just trolling once more, in search of more information to sell to the highest bidder on the market.

    However, in keeping with my earlier commitment to make honest efforts in my answers to these repeat prompts, I will leave you with a short, and probably repetitive answer…

    Books I’ve read that are worth another go:

    1. Runaway Ralph by Beverly Cleary
    2. Dragonlance Chronicles by Margaret Weiss and Tracy Hickman
    3. Hinds Feet on High Places by Hannah Hannard
    4. All of C.S. Lewis’s work
    5. All of the Love Comes Softly series by Janette Oke
    6. The entire Redwall series by Brian Jacques
    7. The Hobbit by J.R. Tolkien

    I’m sure if I thought about it long enough, I could make that list go on for a good while. But, since my tummy is growling for some oatmeal, I shall cut this off, here. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day…

    Cookies can be considered a breakfast item, can’t they?
