I have done both and they are fun!! Hard to choose but since my back has gone out on me I would have to say the sleigh ride even though I don't like the cold the horseback ride would be to hard on me.

I have a hummingbird feeder, and the plants in my yard are the type to attract them.

I used to feed the other birds but the mess was too much.

We like to... However, we were trying to feed fish off the dock on vacation and got attacked by seagulls... not a pretty sight!

I want to buy a hummingbird feeder. On my list of things to do!

I would definitely go under the big deep, however, not too far under, I have an overwhelming fear of running out of oxygen! I like to know there is plenty if air, I am addicted to breathing!

Yep, got two parakeets, and they gotta eat sometime (well usually my sister takes care of them cuz I can't stand them, but yes I do feed them)

And I like to feed ducks when I'm at a pond or lake and they're around

I don't really watch cooking shows much. I liked Rachel Ray for her down to earth style and Emeril is fun to watch sometimes too. That's about all I've really seen.
