Jeane at DogEar Diary tagged me for this fun ABC Meme. I haven’t done one of these for awhile, so I thought I’d play along!
Available or single? Isn’t that the same thing? I’m not either – I’m married to the best guy in the world!
Best Friend? My husband
Cake or Pie? Pie – specifically blueberry or apple (although I also love pumpkin!)
Drink of choice? Wine if it is alcoholic; Coffee first thing in the morning; Gatorade as a thirst quencher; and Lemonade if I want something with a bite.
Essential item for every day use? Blue jeans
Favorite color? Purple
Google? Absolutely – what did we do before Google?
Hometown? I live in California, but I always think of my hometown as where I grew up: Bow, New Hampshire.
Indulgences? Chocolate. Books. Sleeping in.
January or February? Which do I prefer? January…because it marks a new beginning.
Kids and their names? I was never able to have my own kids – but I am an aunt and pseudo-aunt to many children…and of course, there are my furchildren!
Life is incomplete without…? My animals.

Quote for the day? “Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.” by Ralph Waldo Emerson
Reason to smile? Raven – she makes me laugh every day.
Season? I love the Springtime in Northern California because everything is green and the wild flowers are amazing. But Autumn in New England is my most favorite time.
Tag 3 people? Anyone who reads this and wants to play – consider yourself tagged!
Unknown fact about me? Well, it depends who you ask! But most people don’t know I was the 1/2 mile New Hampshire State Champion in 1977.
Vegetable you hate? Olives – aren’t they a vegetable?
Worst habit? Chewing my nails
X-rays you’ve had? Well, I had a lot of X-Rays through the years for sports injuries (but only had a broken finger once).
Your fave food? It used to be lobster – but then I developed a fatal shellfish allergy. So now I would have to say Shepherd’s Pie. Love those mashed potatoes!
Zodiac sign? Leo













Wow, we have a lot of the same answers. And I thought like you about the first one- isn’t that the same thing? I think olives are a fruit- I like ‘em because when I was little, I would stick them on my fingers and eat them off one by one. Did anyone else do that?
Hi fellow Leo! Loved your unknown fact!
Hey thanks for doing this meme, it was really cool to get to know you on a more personal level.
Our indulgences are exactly the same!!!
We have the same answer for #1 and #2.
Jeane: You’re right – olives ARE a fruit! I love vegetables…I can’t think of any I hate!
Amy: Ah, you’re a Leo…no wonder we see eye to eye on so many things!
Callista: You’re welcome – it was fun to do!
Jenners: *laughs* They’re the best ones to have!
Les: *smiles* Somehow I am not surprised by that!
