Saturday 9- Michale Buble'



Saturday 9: My Baby Just Cares for Me (2016)
Hosted by Sam!

Unfamiliar with this week's song? Hear it here.

1) Michael Buble sings that his lover doesn't care much about the theater or new clothes. Which have you done more recently -- attended a play or movie or added to your wardrobe? I Have added to my wardrobe.. As I have lost weight, I have  donated all my old clothing and  am gradually adding to my current wardrobe.. I prefer  J Jill which fits perfectly and even though it can be pricy, I wait until  the  big sales  come along which is quite often.  I recently purchased a really adorable red    pull over sweater for the holidays!

2) This song was first performed in 1930, 45 years before Buble was born. What pop song do you love that is far older than you are?  Since it is  the holidays the first that came to mind was White Christmas..  and I never  tire  of watching the movie!!!

3) The video for this song features a spinning vinyl record. Do you still have a turntable?  We have  gone through the whole gambit of  stereophonic  sound  elements..  we recently    donated our   most recent component setup  and  bought an all in one  stereo  unit that looks like an antique radio.  I am so pleased it has a turntable because I love to  listen to our  old lp's  ever so often.

4) Michael is currently appearing on The Voice. Are you watching this season?No.

5) Of all his albums, Michael Buble's Christmas CD is his top seller. Now that we're in the month of November it's time for you to weigh in: When do you think it's appropriate to start playing holiday songs?  I started in mid November..  but I will say not the really Christmassy cd's  but the more  classical and old English  ones that I, also, love so much!!!

6) He unwinds by fishing, and he's very good at it. Fishing is a sport that requires lots of gear. Is there anyone in your life that has a hobby or passion that makes them easy to shop for?  My precious granddaughters age 9 and 11  are getting into hobbies  which  I love to buy for!  Viv  is  into cooking  and  Leila is  getting into sewing! I cannot wait to take her to the  Joanne's and  buy her  items for her new sewing kit!!!  I think she will enjoy going with grandma  and picking them out herself!

7) Michael is a good cook and enjoys whipping up spaghetti bolognese. What's on the menu at your home this weekend?  For Thanksgiving, I am over all the turkey and the  usual  dishes..  we are hungry for a lovely  beef stew made in the crock pot.   and  some  non  thanksgiving  items  like perhaps Mac and cheese..  No pumpkin pie for me..  just a bit of chocolate peanut ice cream  from Breyers, carb smart  style!  Yum!

8) In 2016, when Michael Buble released this song, the United States Postal Service posthumously honored child star Shirley Temple with a postage stamp. Decades after leaving Hollywood, she served as US Ambassador to Ghana. Could you find Ghana on a map or globe?  Absolutely!   I was a teacher, you know!

9) Random question -- You neglected that soft drink and now it's gone flat. Do you drink it anyway or dump it down the drain?  Well,  I don't drink them anymore, but it would definitely go down the drain.. I much prefer  iced water  and  occasionally I will add  the powdered lemonade mix or  tea with lemonade  powder into  the water  .  it is low cal and delicious!!
