RANDOM DOZEN


Head On Over and Join In The Fun.
Click on the button and visit with Linda.


1. Ever had any run-ins with the "library police?"
Maybe in High School.

2. Do you have a special organizational plan and place for wrapping paper, gift bags, etc., or do you just purchase whatever you need as you give gifts?
I have containers with wrap, ribbon, bags and tissue. Working at a Hallmark for 6 years I have lots of stuff but even before that I was always buying paper, etc. I just take it to the island in the kitchen. I do know someone who has a wrapping room that looks like something you would see at Macy's wrapping counter. Actually the other side of the room is mirrors and a ballet bar!!!

3. Have you ever been in (first-hand witness) a natural disaster?
No I haven't. Some of our earthquakes over the years have been pretty bad!

4. What's your favorite Barry Manilow song?
Well I am a huge Fanilow! I love them all but I will pick"Can't Smile Without You" because it was my mother's favorite.

5. What's the best costume you've ever worn?
I don't do costumes so I am going to say my wedding dress!

6. Which do you use more often, the dictionary or the thesaurus?
The dictionary for sure.

7. What's your favorite breakfast food?
I don't really do breakfast. If I were to go out I would get eggs over easy, with toast and hash browns.

8. Have you ever purchased anything from an infomercial?
Not lately but I use to do it all the time.

9. Have you ever crawled through a window?
Yes I have but I can't remember why.

10. Do you believe in love at first sight?
YES I DO!

11. How many pairs of jeans do you own?
I have several but no expensive ones and actually I seem to only be wearing the elastic waist ones lately because I'm fluffy. (borrowed from Alexis)

12. If someone were going to bake a cake to honor/represent you, what would it be? (Think creatively, like Duff and Crew on "Ace of Cakes.")
Well lately maybe a lap top cause I am always here blogging or maybe a bowling alley with pins and a ball. Maybe a heart shaped cake with arms around it hugging, that would be because of my For Your Tears blog.

4. Copacabana. It's such a catchy song!

5. My mum's wedding dress that she cut up and altered to fit me. I wore it for a parade for the five-year anniversary of my primary school. I was eight or nine!

9. Oh yes, forgetting keys tends to have me crawling through windows!

12. A cake to honour me? A bus or a cat maybe. As long as there is no marzipan on it: so gross...

And I think I have to remember the 'fluffy' part!

Mary said...

What a great idea for the cake!

Kristie said...

I don't do costumes either, but it's fun dressing the kids in them! :-)

Those are fun answers, and I think I'm gong to steal this random set from you - properly credited, of course. :)

Hi Debby-

I've enjoyed reading your responses to Random Dozen. It's a terrific meme. I've always liked a good meme and now I have started my own. We just started a new meme called "Wednesday Wickedness" and will post on Tuesday afternoons. You are welcome to do it on Tuesdays, if you do only one meme a day! We are up and posted now. Each week we pick a famous person and find 10 quotes. Then each question is based on the quotes! This week is George Clooney. Check us out at http://jjatww.blogspot.com.

Thanks!
Janera

The Bug said...

My wedding dress was my first answer too - then I remembered another one. Good answers!

Jen said...

Do you really think love at first sight exists? I know it's out there somewhere...

Colleen - the AmAzINg Mrs. B said...

I do believe in love at first sight.....but I believe sometimes it isn't so much love as....well, you know! I didn't fall in love with my husband at first sight or second...it took a while before I realized what I had in him! Now, if I see him my heart beats a little faster!

I wasn't up to posting today. Depressed.....kids....

Kerri said...

these are fun! i love reading all ur answers! :)

Joyce said...

oh my wedding dress...I wish I'd thought of that! That would definitely be my favorite too. I find thinking up a costume idea just a little bit stressful.

CB said...

Ha Ha Wedding Dress - Would your hubby think that was a compliment? Cute.

I am a Manilow too - He's kind of dorky but I love all of his music!

Amy said...

Valerie @ Inner Child Fun said...

LOL I love how you crawled through a window, but can't remember why!
