Fellow blogger & writer, Kelly Polark, put a list of things she likes and suggested her followers do the same.

Fun post! I thought I was the only one who liked their hair when it's wet. Why does it always look better that way? :-)
ReplyDeleteI don't know about you but I have very thick, wavy hair that has a mind of it's own. When it's wet, it behaves! Are you going to make a list?
ReplyDelete(Yep, my hair is the same way.)
ReplyDeleteI've sort of begun one on my site. My About Andrea page covers a lot. I also have a list, BIts and Bobs, that adds more random things about me.
Great list!! Why oh why did you quit brown chocolate?!
ReplyDeleteI forgot to put DVR on my list! Isn't that the best gadget?!
Also, Sean Connery does have a great voice!!!
I am addicted to chocolate so I can't eat it or I eat too much so seven years ago I gave it up. I'm an all or nothing kind of person so it's easier for me to not eat it at all than to just eat a little. White chocolate is really made from cocoa butter, not cocoa beans, so doesn't effect me the same way.
ReplyDeletethat IS fun! and interesting, I just got a great email from someone who read a magazine article I wrote and said they "laughed till I cried" so that's a pretty awesome feeling I agree!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait until I hear from someone I'm not related to or friends with to that they liked my book! What ws the article about?
