Aloha FridayKailani at An Island Life hosts Aloha Friday every week. “In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing heavy or too thought-provoking.”

I have a bunch of short questions for you.

  1. Do you keep your ketchup in the refrigerator or a cupboard?
  2. Do you heat up your syrup for pancakes/waffles?
  3. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the most, how much does your family use mustard?
  4. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the most, how much does your family use barbecue sauce?
  5. Do you or your family use any type of hot sauce?

Now for my answers.ketchup

  1. We keep the ketchup in the refrigerator.
  2. We also use the syrup cold.
  3. Our mustard use is at a low number 1 on the scale. We hardly use it once a week, but we do have some.
  4. Our barbecue sauce use is about a 4 because we use it in cooking more than mustard.
  5. We don’t have any hot sauce in the house. Guess we are just a bland family. We use Spike a lot though!

Now I’ll do some housework and eagerly await your enlightening answers. Hope I didn’t overload my Aloha Friday by asking so many questions. Feel free to only answer the easy one.

    1. We used to keep our ketchup in the fridge but recently switched to the cupboard. We realized that neither my hubby or I actually likes cold ketchup.
    2. We don’t usually heat syrup.
    3. Mustard? That would be a 0. None of us like it.
    4. For barbeque sauce, that would be a 2. I’m the only one of the 5 of us who will eat it.
    5. No hot sauce.
