So FizzyThoughts tagged me for a meme! So fun. And something easy to do rather than write a review of The Secret Garden or Ulyssess (DNF or just NYF?) or John Adams (actually half-way listened to because the library only had the first set) or True Grit or Tess of the D’Urbervilles or…
I was one of the four bloggers she tagged, too. I feel quite honored to have made the list.

My husband would list pale ale’s among his favorite beverages too. Why does popcorn taste so much better at the theater?
Can’t not admit that I like craft beer. I don’t go to the movies much which is why movie popcorn is such a treat.
I love this meme! Such fun to read about people’s likes! Loved the inclusion of colcannon!
Isn’t colcannon just the perfect food?! LOVE it.
Movie popcorn is the greatest!! All buttery and warm with the perfect amount of salt…mmmm.
YES! I really need to go to the movies now.
Ah, ok I better get on this!
YAY!!
Wow, you’re well-travelled! I love Goodnight Moon and The Book Thief, too. I haven’t read that particular Saint-Exupery, but I’ve read two of his books. One I loved (Night Flight to Arras?) and the other I did not (The Little Prince).
Adorable Esther-Oscar pic!
I am supposed to be re-reading WindSandStars for last year’s challenge so I keep thinking of it whenever ‘re-read’ is mentioned. I thought it quite poetic and beautiful.
You crack me up. I’m so glad I tagged you.
Me, too.
This is such a fun meme.
I love the picture of your dogs!
That’s right! I have to click over and read YOURs!
I love the photos of Esther and Oscar. My husband is all into IPAs lately, his favorite is Dogfish Head, especially the 90 Minute if he can find it. And you’ve been to all four corners of the US! I’ve been to three of the four but still haven’t made it to Alaska yet.
Dogfish Head IS good. And points to you for noticing that! I was trying to organize around a theme on that one.
What? Manhattan Kansas? Whew – how was it? what were you doing? Geez, I’m nosy. That one just caught me off guard.
Love those little dogs of yours!
Hope you’re having/about to have a grand and gorgeous weekend.
And really, I should read WHAT COLOR IS YOUR PARACHUTE? I’ve never read it. But if you say so…I’m good with it. I think the bookstore is open – now!
I am proud to be a K-State Wildcat!! Met the hub there.
and, I don’t know if Parachute is all that great (look at me: still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up) but I enjoy flipping through it and seeing how every year’s latest edition has evolved the field, so to speak.
LOL! A few months ago I pondered whether it would be weird to go to the theater just to get the popcorn and then leave. Consensus was it was so I didn’t get my movie theater popcorn. Do love it!
Trish! How’s motherhood!?!?! congrats, can’t wait to hear the fun details.
I love doing these! I love your answers and I’m totally stealing this.
Go for it.
Thanks for thinking of me! I will get to this soon!!
I love Goodnight Moon!
Who doesn’t except maybe the parent who has read it every night most recently?
My responses are posted!
J, I tried to comment but the spam-preventors never accepted the codes I typed in over and over again. So I tweeted at ya!
