I'm sharing some critical information with you today, giving you time to plan and shop…
Getting To Know You
I’ve been spending a fair amount of time on Facebook lately. I like seeing what my friends and family are doing throughout the day. I like seeing photos and updates and books that they are reading. I don’t particularly like all the silly quizzes and games but when I saw this “Getting to Know You” one circulating the other day I thought I could use it as blog fodder. I eliminated a couple of the questions as they didn’t really work for a blog post (as in, who will you tag, who won’t answer, etc) but for the most part this is the original list.

Fun! I might have to try this one…
Great Info about you! I love your blog. In the past, I have been using Google reader to follow people’s blog. I’m just realizing how much you miss of someone’s creativity when you follow in a reader.
I didn’t know you were interested in going to Italy.
yup, learned lots of new stuff 🙂
Very fun. We have the same favorite color and pet peeve!
My 2nd tattoo is in the early planning stage right now…
We have the same answer for #13. I finally figured out how to do the “Notes” section on facebook and did this yesterday! It’s fun to see everyone’s answers.
Yep, I did learn some new things. And I’d like to try parmesan peppercorn.
OK – where and what are the tats! That’s news to me. I secretly want one but —-
Only Italy and Mexican food. Oh and the extra tattoo.
Some similarities there, but: liver, lima beans AND tofu; women’s gymnastics; NO tattoos, never, never. So scars count?
I read parmesan peppercorn as parmesan POPcorn. Which I thought sounded very tasty.
Lots and lots of same answers. #30 was the only surprise — the other answers all make sense in the context of your blog personality.
I’m on facebook but more just to keep in touch with a few friends who don’t blog. It is definitely not a good UI for the visually impaired. My favorite college roommate is on it, though, as is a good friend from when I lived in Chicago. That whole paperclip thing, you know? How to maintain friendships across distances…
LL Bean? Really? Out of all the shops in the world? Interesting.
Oh, and I’m hungry now. Thanks so much. :p
I learned that I’m an idiot as I didn’t come to your blog this morning! I also learned that I know you pretty well, friend!
I’ll remember not to serve Lima Beans, should we ever get to meet. That’s ok: DH doesn’t like them, either. Have to get my “lima bean fix” when we eat out.
Oh, I could have used that on my blog today…I had nothing to say – so I just posted 5 photos – four of which I took – and one my daughter took…
Like your list…I agree with lima beans! UGH!
I love watching women’s college b’ball!
Nice list! I learned that we have similar favorite foods. Peppermint stick ice cream is the best and I love Taco Bell, too. Haven’t eaten there much since I started WW, though.
I always imagined you got up much earlier. I do not know why I thought that, but there you go.
This looks like great blog fodder for me – I’ve been stuck on what to write for a couple of weeks now. Thanks for sharing!
I’ve seen that too and I agree that it will make great upcoming blog fodder. And yes, I did learn a little but mostly I learned that I know you pretty well.
It’s nice to get to know you a little better, Carole. Thanks for sharing!!
Tatoos? I think we need pictures 😉
Hey, where did you get your tattoos? I am thinking about one.
Oh, I mean which parlor, not where on your body!
YAY ! I’ll meet you early in the morning – coffe in hand, and we’ll cruise on down to the beach, and NEVER eat lima beans! 😀
