mostly favorites

more questions... more answers

Momma Roar asked: What is your favorite music to listen to? I enjoy listening to contemporary christian artists such as Barlow Girl, Jeremy Camp, Sanctus Real, Toby Mac and Switchfoot (favorite). I also like classic rock - the stuff I grew up with, like Supertramp (favorite), Billy Joel, The Eagles, and Bruce Springsteen. And then there's always easy listening like Barbra Streisand (favorite), Celine Dion, Josh Groban, and Michael Buble.

Lori B. asked: What are some of your favorite hobbies? Scrapbooking, photography, reading, movie going, and computer games. Oh, and blogging!

Bunny B asked: What's your fave all-time movie and why? Oooh, this is a hard one. I love movies and to narrow them down to just one all-time favorite is nearly impossible. But I guess I would have to say, Moulin Rouge.

One of the criteria I have for an all-time favorite is that it is a movie that I could watch over and over again and Moulin Rouge definitely meets this qualification. I love the music in it. I love the story line. I love watching Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman (but mainly Ewan :]). It makes me laugh and it makes me cry, all while singing along to the songs.

Short Stop asked: What is your favorite restaurant and what do you order? Another hard one. Why didn't you ask me my top three? Okay, if I can only pick one, it would have to be Red Lobster. I usually order the popcorn shrimp, with a baked potato, caesar salad, and the world famous cheddar biscuits. It's comfort food.

Nancy asked: What's your favorite childhood memory? I had to think a while on this one but, without a doubt, it was visiting my grandparents. My brother, sister, and I would frequently go spend the day or a day and night with both sets of grandparents. Each time was a treat, kinda like a mini vacation.

I remember swimming in pools, homemade ice cream, watching game shows, riding bikes around a mobile home park, playing with paper dolls, 1-2-3 jello, cinnamon toast that no one else could duplicate, card games, playing the organ, and so much more. These are my favorite childhood memories.

Carrie asked: What kind of messes do you like to clean up least? Whether it's human, cat, or dog - vomit! *gag*

will continue tomorrow

good questions! And answers. It's fun to get to know you better. I love that you listen to "harder" music. I like some of that too.

Great answers! I don't know if I could have narrowed my choices down on some of those questions either!! :D

I haven't see Moulin Rouge, but I don't see many movies since I'm more of a book fan. My favorite movie is Much Ado About Nothing with Kenneth Branagh,Emma Thompson and a whole herd of other great stars. Have you seen it?

Mmmmm, I just love Red Lobster and since we don't have one in Canada (at least not around here), I've only been twice - one of the highlights of each of my trips to Hawaii. You're so lucky :)

I could watch Pretty Woman and Out of Africa over and over again.

I still like Barbra S. and Celine. And the Eagles,Billy Joel and Josh Groban.

Ooooh, loving reading these answers! Red Lobster? YUMMMMMMM!!!

I love the cheddar biscuits, but I eat so many that I have to unbutton my jeans on the way out!

Love your eclectic list of music.
