_________________________________________________________________

1. Are you a celebrity news junkie? No way in hell. Celebrities get on my nerves.

2. Have you or anyone in your family ever had braces? A few of my cousins have but no one in my immediate family.

3. Name 4 things in your garage that you don't think anyone else has in theirs. Laundry, a book shelf filled with books, an old bakery rack and a vacuum cleaner.

4. Do you order Girl Scout cookies? Not any more, because I don't know anyone that is selling them and no one comes to the door to sell them.

5. If you have a cat or a dog, what brand of dog/cat food do you feed them? I have two dogs and currently I feed them the Pedigree brand of dry dog food. Here is a picture of my fur babies.

6. When you cook, do you use measuring cups/spoons? Sometimes, depends on what I am making.

7. If you were stranded on a desert island, how many sand castles would you build? None, I would be too busy finding food, starting a fire and building a shelter.

8. Whats one thing you own too many of? Teddy bears, but I am not getting rid of them.

9. If given the chance to go to the moon, would you? Yes! I think it would be a little scary but fun.

10. Talk radio - listen or not? Talk radio is ok 5% to 10% of the time. The rest of the time it drives me crazy and forces me to talk to/yell at my radio.

11. When you put silverware in the dishwasher or in the drainer to dry, do you put the handles up or down? Handles down, so that you can see what you are grabbing for.

12. Video Games for kids - good or not? It depends on the game and if they have parental (or adult) supervision.

13. Share a website with us. SmallWorlds (one of my new addictions) - www.smallworlds.com

14. Water - bottle or tap? Tap water if it is well water, city water tastes horrible...otherwise I buy bottled water.

15. Have you ever eaten a giant jawbreaker, the ones that are the size of the palm of your hand, all the way to the end? Yes, we use to buy them at the local Cracker Barrel. I have to find a place in Wisconsin to buy them.

  8. Aww, what cute dogs! I'm jealous.
    Yer brave for wanting to go to the moon. I considered it, if maybe they could knock me out for take-offs & landings, but the thought of not being on earth weirded me out too much.

  11. Thirteen Thursday lives! Me too.

    I was babysitting my grandson last week and his older sister was playing "Web Kids," like Small Worlds, while talking on a cell phone with a girl friend. The high tech paper doll playing of my day.

    Here's a link of a list of TTers. http://aliceaudrey.wordpress.com/2009/01/07/13-people-who-did-thursday-thirteen-last-week/#comment-13859
