a buffet for your brain
Feast #74
Appetizer
What is a word that your family uses that would not be considered common?
hmm...a toughie. my mom uses the word "bubbler" when she's talking about a water fountain. i think that's a milwaukee thing. i always thought it was weird. and "gimmies" instead of sprinkles on ice cream. oh, and she says "rubbish" instead of garbage. and my mother in law calls napkins, "serviettes" because she's British.
Soup
What theme of calendar do you have on your wall this year?
my 2005 calendar is a word of the day one. sadly, i've got nothin' for 2006 yet...
Salad
Name 3 people you speak with on a daily basis.
depends on that you mean by speak...i mean, i obviously speak to the husband, and i speak to Orah, and usually Sharon, and Tova...and Gilda...depends on the day too...
Main Course
If you could put a new tattoo on someone you know - who would it be, what would the tattoo be of, and where would you put it on them?
who would i put a tattoo on, you mean besides myself? i guess i would probably put some sort of chinese symbol on the husband, on his forearm maybe?
Dessert
What is the last beverage you drank out of a glass bottle?
it was when i was in israel, in 1997. and it was diet coke.
I'm a displaced American writer, mom, and wife living in Canada who muses about my life, my kids, my tv watching and my slight obsession with celebrities.
