Friday's Feast (#2)
Appetizer
Tell about a time when you had to be brave.
A time when I had to be brave was when, adopting our Chinese daughter, I had to travel to China ALONE to go pick her up. My husband was unable to travel so I origianally went with my mother-in-law and she ended up in a Chinese hospital with appendicitis. I spent two weeks travelling around China by myself and came home on the plane with her by myself.
Soup
Which upcoming movie are you excited about seeing?
Shrek the Third!!
Salad
Name an item you try to always have on hand.
Diapers. We have three still not potty trained--need I say any more?
Main Course
Imagine the most relaxing room you can think of. Now describe it!
My room. It is quiet, away from everyone else. It has a soft rocking recliner in it with a television. Also, there is filtered light coming through the windows.

Oh, I love rocking chairs!
Wow, I loved the questions this week. Our soups were the same!
Hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Hi,
I totally forgot about Shrek 3! I wish I would have put that down now. :) I can't imagine how scary it must have been for you to travel around China alone, just thinking about it makes me shiver. Have a blessed weekend.
Than I am always brave because I like to travel alone, lol even through a quite exotic country !
Wow, that is a great story re: bravery! I can't imagine being in such a 'different' culture, not speaking the language, all by myself. Kudos to you!
I'm sure the experience and knowledge gained in those two weeks is something you fondly look at and are so proud of, and so important to be able to share with your daughter!
Great feast! I love Shrek and cannot wait to see the third one either....there's going to be little shrek's in this one!! Have a wonderful weekend!
Great feast - fabulous China story with your precious daughter!
great appetizer! i don't know anyone who's not waiting for shrek the third! come dine with me! ;)
Wow - that's really brave being in a far away country on your own. I'm looking forward to Shrek the Third too!
Oh I can't imagine traveling around a foreign city alone! Very brave indeed!
3 in diapers? Wow!
How scary to have to travel in China, alone. What a great blessing, though!
Enjoyed your feast! That really is scary--going to China alone--but definitely well worth it! I'm also looking forward to Shrek 3 although I put a different movie down. Mine is here
Yikes to the salad, that was a bit scary. Loved the soup:)
LOL @ your salad! I remember poopie diapers well!
Braden
That is a brave adventure for you. I would have been very afraid!
I forgot a TV, too. The ultimate veg-out machine!
I have been there on the diapers!
Thanks for stopping by!
I meant to tell you also that I love the name of your blog. I wake up thinking about that line some mornings!
Yeah, can't wait till Shrek the Third comes to Netflix... LOL
Thanks for visiting.
I can only imagine how brave you would have to be to travel through China alone. Great feast and thanks for stopping by mine.
Thanks for coming by Yikes! :) Great feast!
Nice feast :), quite a brave move to travel to a country like China with your mother-in-law. Such a major country where you have no links at all probably and knowing not a single word of the language up front without a doubt.
I forgot about Shrek 3. Wow! You have 3 in diapers, these words come to mind, "We're Ch-Ch-CHANGING!
I would be scared too, to travel around China by myself. I spent a month in Mexico with friends, but I'm not sure I'd want to travel in a strange country by myself, so I'd say you were very brave.
Thank you for the fantastic feast.
Happy Mother's Day and have a wonderful weekend.
Hello Bridget, nice feast you have there. I love your appetizer! Thanks for sharing. Have a great weekend! :)
I would love to go to China!
Yeah, anything adoption story is brave:)
Have a great weekend!
Good feast. Yeah, your appertizer would have scared me too! And three still in diapers. I'm hoping that soon we'll go from 2 to 1. Thanks for stopping by!
Great feast. We are adopting from China!!!!
Great feast! And thanks for visiting mine!
Did you LEAVE m-i-l in China??? Or did she return home before you? How awful!
On the salad? Been there! Done that!!! Yep - keep PLENTY on hand!
My kids and I are also excited about Shrek3. We just watched Spidey 2 weeks ago..
Happy Mother's Day!
I can't imagine being in a foreign country alone! That was brave!
It would definitely be scary to travel to a foreign country alone!!
Your room sounds lovely.
two thumbs up for you travelling alone in China. Shrek 3? can't wait too.
Wow! Your appetizer is great! I have been to a foreign land and was very happy to have someone with me. IT helped that she had been there before.
Great feast. Sorry I am so late getting over here.
