Thank you, got it, Americans call them mashed.

I vote for the chipped as - while there is no bad way to make potatoes - the chipped ones look like they could have a crispy goodness.

umbrella or rain slicker with hood?
Umbrella, no hoodies! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Honda RC174 Six or Benelli 750 Sei?

Stay in. Every year looks like every other one at the beginning, and I'd rather go to bed early.

Hang up your new calendar first thing in the morning of January 1st or put it off until you finally get around to it in the middle of February?

Hang it up first thing - I like putting the year that's done behind me.

Doing your taxes early for the refund or waiting until the last minute?


What I wish I'd do: Do my taxes early.
What I actually do: Wait until the last minute.

Neat color-coordinated Christmas tree decorations OR colorful jumble of family-made Christmas tree decorations?

At 51, my approach now is to never over imbibe, but when I had occasionally in the past, water, aspirin and time where the only things I found that helped, so I'll say homemade, but hardly creative.

Dark or milk chocolate?

N.B. to Stearman, I am not ignoring you, I just have no idea about those models, but if someone does, please feel free to jump in front of this post.

The darkest of all possible dark chocolate, please. I will gladly eat straight-up baking chocolate, which used to horrify my grandmother.

Milk Duds or Junior Mints?

Junior Mints as I'm with you on the dark chocolate (love that it has become so much more popular in the US) and Milk Duds always tasted stale to me even when they weren't.

Three Musketeers, Milky Way or Snickers bar?

Since there are two that have been posted that have not been answered &
although I would prefer super dark unsweetened chocolate...



But I’ll say snickers & pool.


In an argument with women & the facts are
that you are right.

Do you stay & try to explain?
or
Walk away knowing it’s hopeless?

Walk away - it's even worse when you are right. (You do learn some things in 45 years of marriage.)

Highways or byways?

45 years.... Congratulations !

Suburbia.

Sweet malt-beer or authentic (glassbottled)CocaCola?
Glass bottled Coke from Mexico.

With your hot cereal or coffee do you prefer...


Evaporated milk ? (Pet, Carnation)

Or

Whole milk ? ( this could be the several varieties, skim, etc-etc. )

(I'm aware that some prefer black & no milk at all.)
