'cause it's been a while. Blame  Vicki and Kat.

1. Do you like bleu cheese? Yes but not by itself.  Particularly good on a burger or steak, hello arteries!
2. Have you ever smoked? Never. My mother smoked when I was growing up and every morning at the breakfast table I was greeted with peanut butter on toast and (cough) a blue haze. Turned me off forever. Still love the peanut butter toast, though.
3. Do you own a gun? No.
4. Favorite type of food? Just one? I love Japanese, Mediteranean, Italian, Thai...well better to ask what I don't like, it's a much shorter list.
5. Favorite type of music? I love hard rock, country, classical and "Oh, I remember this song from that summer in 1976" I'm going to bad choosing one answer for these questions, as you can see.
6. What do you think of hot dogs? Depends on the day. I have stood at a street corner and smelt the street vendor's dogs and been nauseous OR madly driven to buy one. Just the other day someone in the house mentioned, "I could go for a hot dog" and I said,'They are so so wrong but hm, I could go for one too." Then the dh agreed. So it's funny this question should come up now that we are all craving hot dogs! I buy one once or twice a year.
