Butter, not margarine and not opposed to cream cheese :) 

manual or automatic transmission

Automatic. I never drove a stick shift. I'd most likely end up in a ditch. Not sure real coupes are still being manufactured, but"

Convertible or coupe 

Coupe.  My first car was a 1978 Mustang coupe with a V8 engine.   it had some go!

Champagne to ring in the new year or no?

Sure, I’d have a little bubbly to ring in the New Year! 
 

Stay up until midnight on New Year’s Eve or not….

Can have bubbly before bed no matter what time I guess…

Stay up. I have no plans but generally up near midnight anyway. 

12 grapes at midnight or not...

A dozen grapes is a Spanish tradition for good luck. Maybe common in Portugal also?

My mother would serve pickled herring on NYE. A Swedish, and maybe other place tradition. My sister and I would not go near it. Still seems disgusting to me. 

I’m always up till at least then too. Now I have really shifted and am up from anywhere from 2am to almost 4am last night. I hear they do a free party kind of thing in one of the main squares on the river with nice music and fireworks, etc.   I may walk down and check that out. I agree, pickled herring is gross. Here it is a dozen raisins, which are also not appealing to me though I could get them down if I tried. 

Happy New Year! 
 

Make New Year resolutions, yes or no

Nope, I’m spontaneous, not a planner

Vacation - visit family or see something new

Hmmmm. Well, I just bought a ticket to visit my daughter…is that vacation? I’ll say that.

Cake: red velvet or chocolate 

Chocolate

crunchy or smooth peanut butter

Crunchy

Im missing my favorite peanut butter. Trader Joe’s has one that is made with unblanched peanuts. Just those and salt and it is sooo good. Honestly, so far the peanut butter here is kind of blah….

PBJ or Peanut butter and banana
