quirky and unspectacular
A little meme, to brighten up your holiday weekend. Funsize (and the whole Vixen crew), Happy Fourth!
The rules:
a) Link to the person who tagged me.
b) Mention the rules.
c) Tell six quirky yet boring, unspectacular details about myself.
d) Tag 6 other bloggers by linking to them.
e) Go to each person’s blog and leave a comment that lets them know they’ve been tagged.
OK, I’ll do most of this. Except d). I’m tagging ALL of you.
1) When I was a kid, I used to eat lemonade concentrate, frozen, straight from the can.
2) When I get stressed out I bake. Then I put on a few more pounds and get more stressed, then I bake some more. You can see why this is a problem? My solution: Give the extras away (to the chagrin of my children). This is the number one reason I need a permanent job — so I will have co-workers to bake for. (Some of my favorites are here, here, here and HERE.)
3) On days when I can sleep in, I’m up at 6 (like today). On days when I need to get up early, you cannot drag me out of bed. It’s like my mind is thinking “Snow Day” or something on my “free” days. I try, unsuccessfully, to fight this cycle.
3) I love being alone so I can knit or read a book. I am as much a bookworm now as when I was 9 years old.
4) My moods go with the Oregon weather and always have. We are both a little erratic.
5) I love strawberries and blueberries but raspberries? Not so much. Unless they’re sauced or in a jam.
6) Could I be more boring? I do not think so. Oh, yes. In the summertime, I hang out all of our laundry to dry. Every last bit of it, all summer. This is insane, but the sheets smell yummy.
Have a good weekend, y’all.

When I get stressed out I bake.
That’s funny. Some people get baked when they’re stressed out.

You’re not boring–you’re wacky!
and I’m not doing the meme, in case you were wondering if I would consider myself tagged.

Reading about you eating frozen lemonade concentrate made my face screw up like a baby sucking on a lemon.
