Welcome to Tuesday 4 in memory of Toni Taddeo...
This is one of Toni's last Tuesday 4 posts published December 9, 2019.
1. When was the last time you tried something new?
The last time I tried something new was a few days ago. I made a Curried Chicken dish with raisins and peaches. The latter was substituted for dried apricots which I did not have.
The only other new thing I've done lately is try a new facial serum. I'll know it works if it minimizes my wrinkles.
2. Who in your family do you compare yourself to?
I don't compare myself to anyone. However many extended family members and old family friends compare me to my late mom. They can't get over how much I look like her in height (short), build and facial features. My late father was also short. Mom used to like to laugh at me because she was "taller" by one quarter inch and we'd tease one another about being short. Though we looked alike and shared many same values, we were also very different people in many ways.

3. What lesson in life did you learn the hard way?
I learned one very important lesson the hard way and that is in life you will often stand alone. It's best to anticipate this so you are not surprised when it happens. Good lessons in life are often painful but what they teach helps you so much as your journey through life's byways.
4. What can you do today that you weren't able to do before?
That's a difficult question. I can't say I've really learned to do things that I couldn't do before though there are definitely still some things I'd like to learn. For now I keep practising some things and hopefully improve on them. Especially things that don't come naturally like knitting and cooking.
Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment. I appreciate you!
