It seems like some of you need that little extra motivation to play along, so this week we’ll do another $5 Amazon GC to one of you.
If you want to answer more questions, feel free to visit You Do What, Now – Episode 4 and answer those questions too!
You Do What, Now? Questions:
- Totally random question – How many pillows do you have in your home? 9 in use and 3 squashed into a Space Bag.
- Do you rinse your dishes before putting them in the dishwasher? No rinsing here. I let the dishwasher do ALL the work.
- Do you separate the colors from the whites before washing? I usually do, but I’ll admit sometimes I’ll get a little lazy with colors that have already be washed repeatedly.
- MMORPG – is that Greek to you? Leeeeeroooooy…. Jeeeeeeeeeeenkiiiiiiiiiiins.
- What’s your favorite household appliance or electronic device? While the Logitech Harmony Remote is my favorite, my new KitchenAid Mixer is quickly catching up.
- What color is your car? Silver….with a turbo charger and pin stripes and big wings painted on the side and a big spoiler to improve aerodynamics…. Or just silver.
- Can you speak another language? If yes, which one? Does knowing how to say “Thank You” in Chinese count? Just English here with very rudimentary español.

April 26, 2011 at 11:12 am1.Eight smelly, disgusting pillows. My husband sweats like a pig at night.
2.I not only rinse them, I wash them. I figure the dishwasher will get the little germies that I missed.
3.I always separate, but my whites are always gray, so I am not sure why I bother.
4.I have no idea what that means, but I am old, so that’s probably why.
5. I love my electric pencil sharpener.
6. I don’t drive, but my sneakers are blue and white. My husband drives, and his car is silver.
7. I am fluent in Spanish and French, and know a smattering of Japanese. But English is my fave 🙂

denise says
April 26, 2011 at 12:06 pm1.15 bed pillows–I assume you don’t want me to count all the decorative throw pillows, but I can if you want that #, too.
2.No–not supposed to in the new dishwashers. I only scrape off big things. Everything comes out clean and I clean out the filter regularly.
3.I separate, but if the load is small, I’ll add pastels/grays to the whites to make a bigger load.
4.my kids are the gamers in the family
5.used to think it was the george foreman grill…still love my Kitchenaid mixer and mini food processer better
6.green minivan
7.I used to be fluent in Spanish because I studied it for about 10 years, but if you don’t use it, you lose most of it. American English is my specialty and I know idiomatic Southernisms since my dad’s from the South and I’ve spent a lot of time there.
