...about me that you probably don't need to know: -) Here's a meme that is traveling about the Internets these days.
*************************************
1. What is your current obsession? Comparing sewing machine models online (my b-day gift from Big Jim :-) and stockpiling fabric.
2. What’s a good coffee place? In Spain, pretty much anywhere; most of the time, though, I have my coffee at home.
3. Who was the last person that you hugged? Big Jim.
4. Do you nap a lot? No, but I'd like to. I had a super-rare 2-hour nap last Friday, and it was WONDERFUL....
5. Tonight, what’s for dinner? I've actually had my "dinner" midday, Spanish style; today it was tofu/veggie stirfry with noodles. For tonight's "lunch" I have a ripe avocado that needs to be dealt with. I just love avocados.
6. What was the last thing that you bought? Birthday present for a BFF.
7. What is your favorite weather? 82 and sunny, with a gentle breeze.
8. Tell us something about one blogger who you think will play this week? I have no idea what this means.....
9. If you were given a free house that was fully furnished, where in the world would you like it to be? Somewhere where it is often #7 and not far from water.....
10. Name three things that you could not live without. My notebooks, pen, and ink.
11. What would you like in your hands right now? That avocado (my stomach is growling, which is never good).
12. What’s one of your guilty pleasures? The Hills. And OK! magazine (hardly ever though because the only newstand in the village doesn't sell it---and I thought Brits loved their OK!?!)
13. What would you change or eliminate about yourself? I'd like eyes that work properly and don't make ophthalmologists exclaim things like "I have never seen anything like that in my life!" or "You have the eyes of an 80-year-old!"
14. As a child, what type of career did you want? I don't really remember. When I was young, I used to like to play school and library, so I was always a book freak geek. I also remember making little newsletters by hand and using that cool purple carbon paper.
15. What are you missing right now? Central heat---when will this winter END?!!!!
16. What are you currently reading? Bridge of Sighs by Richard Russo
17. What do you fear the most? Toss up between losing my eyesight and not getting the chance to live up to my potential
18. What’s the best movie that you’ve seen recently? I don't get to see movies very often except for DVDs; however, Big Jim and I did see Slumdog Millionaire last week. BUT, we were both decidedly underwhelmed by it. We DID both find Bride and Prejudice (a Bollywood take on P&P) very entertaining and a lot of fun.
19. What’s your favorite book from the past year? The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid by Bill Bryson
20. Is there a comfort food from your childhood that you still enjoy? Mac & cheese
hasta pronto,
