I was tagged by crochetmelovely and can I just say that I freaked out when my favorite crochet blog tagged me in a post? Does that make me creepy? Possibly.
Rule 2: Answer the question the tagger asked you and make 11 new ones
Rule 3: Tag 11 people and link them to your post
Rule 4: Let them know you have tagged them.
1. What’s your favorite food?
Pollo con crema. A lot of restaurants just pour cheese dip over the chicken and that irks me to no end so I pretty much have to have this homemade but its my favorite.
2. What do you do in your free time?
I love to write, crochet, and read but usually I'm on tumblr and utterly unproductive lol.
3. What’s your favorite book?
Ohhh this is a hard one. I have several. Walden by Thoreau changed my life. American Gods by Neil Gaiman is excellent as is Small Gods by Terry Pratchett. Also, The Color Purple by Alice Walker is beautiful.
4. What’s your favorite movie?
The Godfather. I watch it every Christmas with my dad ^_^
5. How’s your week been so far?
My week has been fantastic! I have been sick and can't work but I have caught up on sleep and editing my book for publication so I have gotten a lot done!
6. Do you have plans for the weekend? If so, what?
Well, today I'm gonna crochet and tomorrow I'm looking at a possible wedding venue which is exciting! I may swing by and pick up some fabric paint because I may be making my own wedding dress to save some money.
7. Are you doing anything special for the holidays?
I'm spending time with my fiance's family and seeing my own as well and, to me, that's pretty special.
8. What’s your most proud moment?
Oh gosh, this is a toughy. hhmmm....When I think back, all I can think of is things that happened to other people; like my brother taking his first steps or my sister getting a standing ovation at her speech. As for things that I have done...I'm unsure. I helped teach an elderly gentleman to read and hearing him read a page to me felt pretty fantastic.
9. Do you have any pets? If so, name them! :)
My dog Sasha just passed. I have another dog named Valerie Palme after the CIA operations officer but we call her Vallie. ^_^
10. Are you looking forward to the new year?
I am! I'm getting married in that year and I am determined to make it the best yet!
11. What’s your favorite Holiday & why?
Samhein/Halloween!! I know they are different but I couldn't possibly choose between the two. I love all things associated with spirits and death and the thought that this is the time that the veil is the thinnest just makes me so happy. I keep hoping I will see my grandmother who passed when I was younger. I even leave food and a candle lit for the spirits so they may find their way. I'm sentimental like that.
1. Is it worse to fail at something or never attempt it in the first place?
2. If you could choose just one thing to change about the world, what would it be?
3. To what extent do you shape your own destiny, and how much is down to fate?
4. Does nature shape our personalities more than nurture?
5. Should people care more about doing the right thing, or doing things right?
6. What one piece of advice would you offer to a newborn infant?
7. Where is the line between insanity and creativity?
8. What is true happiness?
9. What things hold you back from doing the things that you really want to?
