Random things you didn't want to know about me
A couple days ago the lovely Sara Bulla gave me the Versatile Blogger award. On top of that, a couple people gave me the Great Comments award. (thank you Golden Eagle and Leigh Covington!) So I'm going to combine the two by telling you five random facts about me, then passing the award on to awesome comment people. Sound good?
1. I can't ski. My dad was ski instructor and even ski patrol at one point in time, but I cannot ski. I end up on my butt all day long.
2. I grew up eating Kim-chi on a regular basis. (Thanks to a dad who lived in Korea for two years!) And yes, I can rock it with a pair of chopsticks.
3. Sometimes I watch trashy reality T.V. (who else hates Courtney on The Bachelor? Oh, and was I the only one disappointed when Allison didn't win ANTM all stars?)
4. I totally played t-ball when I was eight. It was awesome.
5. I really want to learn how to make awesome homemade doughnuts, anyone have a recipe?

1. I grow amazing tomatoes every year. My garden is mostly a tomato patch, and my family enjoys a very large inventory of fresh tomatoes all summer long.
2. My cat is a humane society rescue. We adopted her after she spent nearly 5 months in a cage there and have had her with us for almost 7 years now.
This was fun, Happy Thursday to you!
I love trashy tv! OK, I don't watch it often but it can be fun when I'm feeling down or something.
And I can't ski either.
Also, I've never had Kim-chi, but now I really want to eat some Asian food with chopsticks.
Thanks so much for thinking of me!
On a side note, I watch trash on TV sometimes, too. I can't help it. The drama is intoxicating.
Cheers!
i think they make the bachelor keep at least one annoying girl around to boost the ratings... i love amazing race, too =)
Oh, and thanks for mine, too!
Check out this link. I saw them being made on TV. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/foodanddrink/recipes/8782495/River-Cottage-Baking-recipes-buns-and-puddings.html
I went snowboarding once and never again intend to snowboard or ski. Everyone just automatically figures I can/do because of my location, but nope. A broken finger and broken behind were enough for me to say no thank you. I'd rather sled. ;-p

Your random facts were so much fun and I'm off to check out a bunch of the bloggers you introduced.
Your new blog is very nice, btw
And my son played t-ball and loved it, too. :)
I skied once and never got off the bunny hill! Too much slippin, and slidin, and fallin for me! Besides, I despise being cold!
You should check out my blog. It just might make your day. :)
