Winter Boredom Rules My Time

Kerri passed this on and I really enjoyed reading her answers, so with nothing else to do with myself today (besides the usual drudgery of housework)...

1. What time did you get up this morning?
5:32 am. I slept in for an extra half hour. I am such a diva!

Honestly, I don't like either! Ok, not quite true, I like black pearls :)

3. What was the last film you saw at the cinema?
Bridget Jones' Diary.

4. What's your favourite TV show?
Paul James - Gardening by the Yard.

5. What did you have for breakfast this morning?
Nothing. I don't do breakfast, (or lunch) but I make sure my kids have breakfast. Well, how hypocritical is that?

6. What's your favourite cuisine?
Chinese! The kids and I adore Chinese, but D thinks it's some kind of invented punishment just for him. lol.

7. What foods do you dislike?
Chocolate, ice cream, french fries, ketchup, candy, etc. The list is pretty long.

Ick! Chips are gross!

9. What's your favourite CD at the moment?
The soundtrack to Titanic. The louder the better!

11. Favourite sandwich?
Pineapple and cream cheese. It's good!

Bhutan.

15. What colour is your bathroom?
Which year? lol. Right now it's sort of a deep evergreen, and I love it! Maybe I'll stop repainting.

17 must be hanging in limbo somewhere in netland.

18. Favourite time of the day?
I'm with Kerri - early on a warm summer morning. There's nothing like that first cup of coffee sitting beside the pond, watching the koi glide gracefully through the water while the birds sing, butterflies and hummingbirds hover over beautiful blooms. ~sigh~ Is it summer yet?

I don't know...what's on sale this month?

Only my middle, Ann, which was some 'rule' through like 6 generations, so I ticked everyone off by purposely not giving my daughters Ann as a middle name. How obstinate am I? :)
