1. Good weekend? Yes, it was pretty good, thanks for asking.

2. When was the last time you went to the hospital? End of September when I broke my arm. Had surgery a week later and had to stay overnight.

3. For family gatherings, do you have a lot of traditional recipes or have you made your own traditions? The family dynamic is changing as my generation is now the older generation. We used to have lutefisk at Christmas (I never ate it), but nobody still alive eats it or cooks it. We still have Swedish Meatballs and lefse, though.
