Do you prefer to be indoors or outside?
« on: July 01, 2012, 09:34:51 am »
As I just wrote the last thread it gave me an idea for this one.

Are you an indoors or outdoors person?

I'd always rather be outside by choice, but I do enjoy being snug with a cosy fire on a nasty winter's day.

Have you changed over? Used to be one way and now the other or a bit of both?

Be great to hear your stories especially as for most of you on here your climate is very different to ours.

Thanks in advance DJ

I absolutely love being out side after winter and spring starts showing and the sun starts warming. I usually go crazy in the garden cleaning up, weeding, mowing, re planting etc.
But winter I prefer to be inside (great time to catch up on jobs inside)
But if I had a choice I would much rather be outside enjoying the sun.
Although I'm not keen on the heat in summer when it gets in the high 30s :)

I was actually thinking about this the other day DJ, and I realised that while I'm inside, I think I like it more than being outside, but as soon as I go outside, I realise how much nicer it is than being stuck inside :-))

I like to be inside cooking. The only time that I loved being outside was about 40 years ago when DH was doing his national service. I loved spending time in the veggie garden then, for some reason it always made me miss him less.

I've become an inside person these days - that could be because the computer and kitchen are in there  ;)

Me too...

I like being outside in summer, sitting on the patio or by the pool.

A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

As my user name suggests my two favourite activities are both indoor pursuits and I actually hate gardening  ;D

I love gardening, once I get started I find it hard to stop, but it's the getting started that is my problem!  I'm not a cold weather person, so it's in front of the fire for me at this time of year but, give me a 20 - 25 degree day and I love being outside and pottering about.

I wish I had an outdoor kitchen. That was fly-proof, weather-proof, spider-proof, nosy-neighbour-proof, stray-cat-proof....

Great idea Amy.... :) 

Outdoor kitchen that did its own dishes, and cleaned up, and restocked the pantry automatically.
We would still have to cook though..

Absolutely :D

And I think we should make it a portable kitchen so we can take it around the world ;)
