tag.


I've been tagged, again! This time by Heidi and Kelli ( for the record, I was planning on tagging you, Kelli, but you beat me to it).

The game is easy. There are only three rules:

1.The rules are posted at the beginning.
2.Each player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves.
3. At the end of the post, the player then tags 6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blog and leaves them a comment letting them know that they've been tagged and asking them to read your blog for the rules/details.

Here are my 6 random facts:


1. I know Kelli said this, but I too love dill pickles. My favorite brand is Best Maid/Del Dixi. Just thinking about them makes my mouth water. I've even been known to drink the pickle juice until my stomach burns (Mmmmm). On the other hand, I hate sweet pickles. In my opinion, they are the redheaded step-child of the gherkin family (no offense if you're a redhead or a step-child).

2. I think Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup smells like B.O. --yeck!


3. I love bowls. Any kind, really. Desert, salad, decorative, serving-ware... the more the merrier! When Ammon and I were starving students, he would give me the "we have enough bowls" speech before I went shopping. Good thing we're no longer starving students because I've got my eye on a few bowls here in Chile!

4. I sing in an opera voice as a joke. My mom thinks I'm being serious and she says I'm really good (I have a wonderful mother).

5. I once wrote a college term paper for my sister on a subject I knew nothing about. I got an A.


6. I'm terrible at surprises! I'm horrible with the anticipation. I can feel the suspense bubbling under my skin and then I burst! My family gives me a hard time about this, which makes me mad, but I guess it's somewhat deserved. For the first 3 years of our marriage, Ammon and I opened our Christmas presents on the night before Christmas Eve. I'm getting better, though. Last year, I threw Ammon a surprise 30th birthday party and he had no idea!

I tag:
Colette, Emily, Jeanette, Lori, and Marie.

Yes you did write my paper for me and if i can remember right we started at 1 and then ended at 3:30. That was one of the best papers I wrote.

I think you forgot how many times you helped me write papers. At least three times in College, 4 or 5 in high school and my husband tried getting you to write his paper the other night.

I remember when mom use to correct my papers in high school and she would always use to many commas and one time my english teacher took off points for being TOO COMMA HAPPY. Mom was so mad it was making me laugh so hard.

I have the best family.

I love and miss you,
Suz

cute things. i responded to your tag but my things aren't cute, they're weird.

That's a fun tag and I look forward to responding to it. I don't know 6 people that blog. I will have to email some of my friends that I know look at my blog, but don't blog and tag them and MAYBE they'll become bloggers too. I'd LOVE Mom and Dad to do a blog! We should try to get them to...

Tune in to my blog & I'll respond.

I didn't know any of that about you (except for the bowls). Also, I have to disagree with you about the pickles... Clauson Spears (in the refrigerated section) are by far the best pickles! I'm forbidden to eat them at my house b/c Kam says they give me bad breath.
Also, I knew Ammon would be worth tagging... it was hilarious!!!

hey lynette, did you feel that earthquake that was in chile yesterday? (or today...i don't know the timezone difference)

I love the details! The surprise one made me laugh the hardest. I used to be the same way, but now that I have kids, I realize all the fun is in the surprise and I don't want to take that away form anyone.
