What do you do with your pocket change at the end of the day?
Coins. Change. We are hearing that there is a coin shortage spreading across America but supposing you do have some in your pocket at the end of the day, what exactly to you do with it? I personally don’t have as much change as I used to have since I tend to use my debit card or my phone to buy just about anything that I want during the course of the day. However, Joe has a coin ritual that I love to watch. Every day he puts his change onto his nightstand. One day, long ago, he brought our granddaughter Aviana there to show her the pile and let…

Have you ever hosted a Thanksgiving?
Thanksgiving is a day for gathering, being grateful and eating for a lot of us here in the United States.

Have you ever lied about your age?
Age. It’s a funny thing really. When we are young we want to be older and visa versa. Our question this week is – have you ever lied about it, either way? Most of the people I hung around with in high school had birthdays early in the year, while mine was in October. This meant that they did just about everything before I did, including turning 18.
