PART II-

A list of 10 honest things that you didn't know about me in no paticular order or reason:

1- My favorite chocolate of all time is Lindt's Excellance Extra Creamy Milk Chocolate in the very large bars, yummmm . . . I buy them several at a time.

2- I have a pet shrimp(the size of a piece of rice) in an ecosystem, shaped like an egg, with no feeding, maintenance or walking required. She can live up to 10 years and her name is Rose.

3- My favorite cartoon character is Jiminy Cricket, I found him to be intelligent with a sense of humor and a very dapper dresser.

4- I like sitting in a cozy chair and with my left leg curled under me.

5- I have thought about living in a library or bookstore and having time to read through all the books.

6- I don't like coconut.

7- I think coffee always smells better than it tastes.

8- I have my mother's old worn and yellowed cookbook written by hand in German, that I love, but don't make anything from because its in the metric weight sysem.

9- I can be overly sensitive and take things to heart a bit too much sometimes.

10- I don't like getting up early and function in slow motion when I do have to get up.

I'd like to hear from you . . .
