ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about kids :p
Hahaha that quote is so funny, I love it!
Interesting, your Q answer just answered the question I wrote about yesterday. I feel a change coming on!
ReplyDeleteAw! I am so happy you did this. It is so fun to read about other people. I want all my favorite bloggers to do this!
ReplyDeleteI love eggplant, I think the color is pretty. Perception is funny ;P
Fun fun fun!!
ReplyDeleteOkay so:
-You ARE a perfectly average height!! I'm 5 foot 3 and a half!!
-Boo to you not liking eggplant! Liebling hates them too. But I looove them, along with zucchini. Yum!
-Double hernia sounds painful!!
-25?! I wish! I'm turning 29 this year lol.
-Totally with you on the pet peeves!! That's a BIG problem in Hong Kong. Also people who block the whole goddamn escalator so you can't pass. #$#^@#%&!!!!
-I think I'm gonna do this meme (is that what you would call it?) on my blog. Love this!
So, uhh....about that blog reading you like to start your day with...
ReplyDelete*super awkward shameful comment about how I just started a blog*
This was cool, though!
I knew Australia was strict - I've had many friends from there, and one recently moved back there - but I didn't know about needing x-rays. Hard core!
ReplyDeleteHey now, average height is better than being short. Just sayin'!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I love to vacuum. I don't know why.
Enchilasagne? Sounds amazing! Do tell:-) xoxo
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more with "V"! I am curious, which country did you emigrate from?
ReplyDeleteI'm 5' 5 5/8", which sounds a little OCD, but when your "around" 5'6" people are constantly saying things like, "Oh I'm 5'6" and you are way taller than me, so you MUST be taller than that" I started to get a complex and kept asking the doctor to recheck and I'm still 5' 5 5/8"! Well, except the time I went after an hour=long full body massage and I was 5" 6 1/2" but I shrunk back again! :)
ReplyDeleteFive foot two and yes, it's average. Enchilasagne recipe, please?
ReplyDeleteEnchilasange! Where has that been all my life?!
ReplyDeleteI do enjoy eggplant, but only in certain things. It can be pretty ghastly, I agree.
Love this list. It was fun to read through!
Nice tidbits! I too love yellow and orange, and am also around a foot shorter than my husband. I'll add my voice to the requests for the enchilasagne recipe!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a fun post! I love getting to know you more. Have a great day, my dear
ReplyDeleteKisses
Ps: I’m hosting an amazing GIVEAWAY today! You can win 2 adorable tea towels and a mug!
I'm totally with you on the slow walkers. They drive me CRAZY. And they seem oblivious when you have to pass them, just moseying along.
ReplyDeletePlease do tell with the enchilasange or whatever the hell you call it. Sounds fantastic!
love this, do you mind if I steal it?
ReplyDeletethat is all
Vacuuming is my favorite. I hate washing dishes or laundry.
ReplyDeleteWrite it in Lipstick

ReplyDeleteEmily Jane - Yes! it is. oooh, keep me updated.
Teacher Girl - I think the colour is pretty too. But Eeek!

piceasitchensis - I went and checked out your blog :)
Tattytiara - Yeah, I've had to have two. One before I moved here and one when I decided to stay.
Shanimalscrackers - I am fine being average height, and I am fine being short - but it's the fact that he teases me when it's really him whose tall. le sigh.

ah! this is such a fun way to get to know you! i especially like K and L, oh and P drives me completely crazy too! i think this is all just more evidence that we would make great real life friends, and it's sad there's an entire ocean between our houses. although, the mister's family is from australia, and we've talked about living there at some point. so...
ReplyDeleteThat is my pet peeve as well!! Particularly when I'm trying to go somewhere fast!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I'm deleting my blog now :-) it's fair to say I've lost my love for good andreally just need to concentrate on uni work. I'll still pop on over here though :-D
