I’m it! – Hive and Nest

I’ve been tagged by Heather at Twin Birch who, despite living in a state with NO Target stores (hard to believe, I know), makes me die with envy over her super sweet soapmaking skillz. (You can buy her stuff on Etsy.) I now have to list six random things about myself.  I have been sweating this for several days  because I thought they had to be random things that nobody knows about me.  Since I love to talk incessantly about myself, that was proving to be a tall order.  But then I realized they can just be random anything.  So here are my six things:

1.  I hate condiments.  Most, to me, are just disgusting. In order of hatedness (#5 being hated the least, #1 being the most): 5. Salad Dressing (unless it has bleu cheese, then it moves to #1) 4. Sour cream (I just don’t get this. Cream should be sweet.) 3. Mayonnaise (Has to be seriously disguised for me to eat this.) 2. Ketchup (Like nasty spaghetti sauce.  Which I don’t much like either.) 1. Mustard (Under no condition will I eat this.) 2. I am often tempted to bite flesh. I know, I know, how disturbing.  The texture of it is just so tempting.  Since taking a bite of someone’s body is likely to get me hit (or worse), I have to make do with candy circus peanuts.  You remember those banana-flavored orange candies?They are firm, yet soft and chewy, just how I imagine flesh would be.  And there’s no bloody mess! 3. I try to sit Indian style whenever possible. (I mean, criss-cross-applesauce.  Sorry Indians, don’t want to be culturally insensitive.  Although I don’t know whether it’s insulting to Native Americans or people from India.)  I have been known to sleep in this position, and I always eat meals like this.  I do the one-legged version in my car. 4.  I love pattern:  Floral, plaid, toile, stripes, paisley;  I adore it all. I’m particularly fond of polka-dots these days. 5. My favorite breakfast is cookies and candy.  And cake. 6. I am scared of under my bed.  I know, intellectually, that there are no killers/monsters/evilness under there, but my imagination tells me something different. So I cannot kneel or stand next to my bed.  If I say my prayers I have to kneel either on top of my bed or in the bathroom.  Now I have to tag some people.  Great, this is where I get panicky.  OK, I am tagging some of the new girls: Carolyn @ Waite for Carolyn Harlene @ We Are All Enlisted Carol@ Siswick Construction Zone
