I live on the corner of an avenue and a close, but my address is in the close
and that’s not on the list. Before that i was in a way
I live on a Court, aka Cul de Sac.
I’m in Colorado Springs which wasn’t in the list, although it would probably fit in with the - Falls or Rapids subgroup.
Voted other.
I also just realized I forgot Park and Heights, but it is too late to edit the poll.
I’d also have suggested [ something ] - Forest as another common descriptor!
And [something]-dale…
The most recent poll leaves off, “huh, i don’t think I’d even have noticed that some other poll got more votes.”
The previous occupants of my house painted a cow spot pattern on the kitchen walls. I have to admit I kind of liked it, so I kept it that way. So I guess my kitchen has a cow theme.
My kitchen doesn’t have a deliberate theme, in the sense of a batch of decorations with the same sort of pictures or whatever on them. But it’s a great big kitchen in a genuine (historically and current) farm house and it’s full of the sort of stuff that accumulates in a genuine farmhouse kitchen.
Voted maybe.
Our kitchen doesn’t have a theme. But, the kitchen in my parents’ home, when I was growing up, had a rooster theme. Lots of rooster decorations (not to mention the groovy gold/orange/brown color scheme). I blame it on it being the 1970s.
I never had a themed kitchen until I bought my house 21 years ago. I had the kitchen remodeled and bought fruit-themed rugs, dish towels, tablecloth, wall decor. Over the years I added some butterflies and hummingbirds to mix things up. When I retired five years ago, I changed it over to a coffee theme because I had found a fabulous rug to build around. I imagine that’s the way it will stay.
I’d never made the heart symbol with my hands, but I did it and then answered yes.

Not sure about the mall santa. I have a vague memory, but it’s so vague that it might just be from reading about other kids doing so, or seeing a line of them somewhere waiting while we just passed by the area.
Just asked my mom about this, as I had no memory of ever visiting Santa. She confirmed that was because I never did!
My kitchen doesn’t have a theme. But this one does (scroll through the photos).
And I technically live in a -ham.
At first I thought our kitchen didn’t have a theme, but then I realized it does. My gf has a coffee pot collection displayed in the kitchen. So, coffee.
Of course I’ve interacted with Santa at the mall, both as a kid as well as with my kids. We also take our dogs to a brewery for pictures with Santa (the real Santa!).
Technically, the name of my town means “________” Valley in Serrano.
I was taken to a Mall Santa (really a Department Store Santa. This was in pre-mall days of Yore.) I’ve been a Bar Santa. Did that gig several years running.
I’d made the heart symbol with my hands ironically, but them I’m smack in the middle of GenX, so most things I do is for ironic purposes.
We took our kids to see Santa Max at the mall in Charlotte when we lived there. He was just a pretty cool guy who raised reindeer in the Tennessee mountains. It was also nice to have photos of the boys with the same Sanra for several years.
I have no recollection of this, but there are photos of a little Maus with a Santa at some sort of Santa grotto. There were not really many malls in the seventies.
We participated in SantaCon with kopek (RIP). He was Amish Santa, handing out cigars. I was Bad Santa (I handed out porn to the naughty >18 kids).
Come to think of it, if that vague memory is actually of me being taken to see a Santa, it would have been a Department Store Santa. It would have been in the 1950’s, and I don’t think I’d even heard of a mall then. But we routinely shopped at department stores.
I miss good department stores.
