Happy Saturday Morning To You!
The Tag Game:
Each player of this game starts with "6 weird things about you". Each person who gets tagged needs to write a blog post of their own 6 weird things as well as clearly state this rule. After you state your 6 weird things, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you're tagged" in their comments and tell them to read your blog for information as to what it means.
************************************************************************************************
I was tagged by Jane yesterday to play this game. It is a good thing that I like Jane and adore her blog. Now I won't have to kill her! ;-) The hard part for me in listing weird things about myself, is that I only need to pick six. I think it would be pretty easy for me to list more than that! So, here are mine ~
1. When I sit in a room that I am visiting, like a restaurant or meeting room, I HAVE to sit facing the entrance/front of the room. I just can't stand having my back to it.
2. I abhor pears. I say that I am allergic to them, but actually I just plain hate them. Ever since I was a little girl, I hated the taste, the texture, everything about the poor, innocent pear.
3. I am scared to death to drive on the interstate now. I used to be an awesome driver and drove anywhere I wanted on any road. I had an incident when I almost fainted on 1-275 in Tampa due to being sick and not knowing it and I barely got off of the expressway in time. Ever since then, it is in my head that I CAN'T drive on those kind of roads without fainting. If I try, I start to feel like I am going to have a full blown panic attack. I'll drive anywhere, as long as it is a normal road or a back road. No interstates or expressways for me.
4. I won't step on any cracks on sidewalks.
5. I have to have an aisle seat in the movie theatre.
6 .And I don't know if this could be classified as weird, although I know he is perceived as such, but I will admit this very surprising fact about me, I am a Prince fan.
So who should I tag?? Let's see ~ I think I'll tag Donna, Amy,Catherine,Chris NatureGirl,Beata Okay girls, Maggie and I say ~ Tag, you're IT!!
Oh all right I'll give it a go only because we have similar ~HaTeS~ and I don't think it's weird to ~*LoVe pRiNcE*~ I adore him!!! :)NG

Maggie! Are you a tag doggie?
Tell your Mommy that French toast looks yummy but Prince looks strange. :)

fairly new to your blog and just thought i'd say hello!
had to comment on the feeling faint on highway syndrome...i've got the exact same thing and never met anyone else with it!! had a strange episode one day as well, now i have major fear of going up that on-ramp!!! feel like a freak about this!!
you've got me in the mood for french toast...if only mine looked as pretty as yours!

Hi,
Been lurking and love your house and your use of red accent furniture.
Anyway, just had to tell you that I'm the same way about facing doorways. It's totally feng shui not to have your back to doorways. Basically, you don't want to be startled and want to see who's coming. Otherwise, with your back to the door, you'd always be looking over your shoulder, feeling like someone is at your back, or "stabbing you in the back." This is especially important for work office areas. Just an FYI.

You are decidedly NOT weird! Those are just charming little quirky things! The highway thing I can understand. 275 was a busy one as I remember, and an incident like that will scare you.
Oh, I am late is commenting but I LOVE Ethel...I always name our cars and I am a huge I Lve Lucy fan...and the car is so pretty. What a sweet ride! : )
The picture today is so lovely, as always. Yummy french toast and a pretty plate. A wonderful way to start the day.
Enjoy your Sunday...I so love your blog. I look forward to it each day.
Hugs,
Sue

I'm a Prince fan too. He's an artist and one of the most innovative and provocative ones out there. He reminds me of Dylan in the way that he explores music.
4 out of the 6 things you've listed are things that describe me too.

I read your 6 weird things there are 3 that I don't think are weird because I feel the same way. Well maybe they are a little weird but therei is a little of that in all of us.
P.S. Your french toast looks yummy.

My kids used to say "Step on a crack and you'll marry a rat" I always used to reply "Too Late"! Then we would all giggle.

I have a friend that faints when her kids get cuts, or hurt in any way... how scarey is that!
Love your photos!

That french toast looks oh so yummy! I love your list of 6 things, but funny they don't seem weird to me at all! You're adorable!

tee hee! I'm a huge Prince fan! He's performing at the Super Bowl.. that's a good reason to watch, isn't it? :o)

Hey! I think I have the same plates as you...I just bought a sugar/creamer and 6 bowls from an antique store and I swear they look the same...was going to post them on my blog last night but forgot, but now I'll have to go check!
Your breakfast looks delicious btw!

I have to laugh at your 6 weird things...because I share 3 of them with you! HAHAHAHA!! I love the way pears smell & look...but hate the way they taste...yuck! I saw Prince about a year or so ago in concert, and it was probably THE best concert I've ever been to! And I do the same thing with restaurant seating. I also do that with sleeping...I have to sleep on the side of the bed closest to the door...unless I'm in a hotel...then I generally sleep on the side away from the door. HAHAHAHAHA!!
