  1. You see, this is why I like reading your blog. You make me smile, reading things that I know about you, things I didn’t know about you and things that you come by honestly (country music - your dad)(even if I don’t agree on this one) and the things that we have in common…
    I love you

  2. Can I do the meme? LOL
    I love onions, and lots of them. I don’t like the breath but they are too tastey to pass up!
    That’s a cool tongue thingy. Nice foto. It took me a long time to figure out I could roll my tongue like a taco, and that’s all I can do.
    Country “ain’t that bad” ha ha.
    God first, I agree. So important, although I tend to fall into thinking I’m smarter sometimes, which gets me nowhere!
    You have a sweet soul. I can see how much you value friendships.

  3. Hey! Thanks for tagging me. I am definitely gonna do it in a few minutes…after I do pilates! Ha! BTW, I never told you, but you inspired me to start walking, etc on my off-gym days (when I read on your blog that you had)! Grazie.

    I liked your responses, and I relate to many of them…anything with salsa…yum! But, no country music - it ain’t happenin’ for this Texana! :-)

  5. We are so alike. How very neat-o :) I love your tongue pic. Quite . . . interesting :) I secretly hate you for that. My hubby will never stop making fun of me because I can’t do it . He can do it and so can my son and they both love to rub it in. I’m the recessively backwards one in the family but that makes me special, right? :)
