Randomness Volume 2

Are you ready for a whole lot of random, silly facts about me?  Well OK- here you go!

Randomness 1:  I have watched Anne of Green Gables at least 100 times.  And I plan on watching it 100 more!  Oh how I love Gilbert Blythe!!!



Randomness 2:  I will not eat a pork chop.  Or a pork roast.  Or a ham.  But I WILL eat (and LOVE) bacon!!  Along those same lines, I will not eat steak, but I will eat a hamburger.

Randomness 3:  The accent color in my kitchen is orange.  I'm not typically a huge fan of orange, but I love it in my kitchen!

Randomness 4:  My favorite flowers are Gerber daisies and Irises.



Randomness 5:  When I go to Red Lobster, I order chicken.  When I go to a fish fry (do y'all have those or is that a northern thing??) I order a hot dog.  And let me tell you, the hot dogs at Ted's Fish Fry are goooood!!

Randomness 6:  I love Barry Manilow.  I have confessed this before on the blog.  But in case you missed that post, I will confess it again.  And my wonderful hubby got me tickets to see him at Foxwoods in March.  AND he has agreed to go to the concert with me.  Can you believe it (I think the fact that he can gamble before and after the concert really helps)!!



Randomness 7:  I have a cat named Amity.  She is named Amity after the movie Amityville Horror. She is literally insane and quite possibly possessed.

Randomness 8:  My friend Linda in NC introduced me to Bojangles.  I am now obsessed with Bojangles and considering driving the 13 hours from NY to NC just to get some Bo-berry biscuits and those hash browns with the little onions in them.  Come to NY Bojangles!!!!



Randomness 9:  I have read the book, "Are you there God?   It's me, Margaret" at least 50 times. Growing up I LOVED this book.  Judy Blume is the best.


Randomness 10:   I come from a small town.  Like a very small town.  Like not even 30 people in my graduating class small town.  Growing up, I could not wait to get out of this small town.  I just knew I was meant to live in the city- and a big city at that.  Well guess what...I am now living in ANOTHER small town!  Not quite as small as the one I grew up in, but small nonetheless.  And honestly, I would not have it any other way!  But that is an entire blog post that I will someday write!

OK- there you have it!!!  Some total randomness about little ole me!  Now, please share something random about yourself in the comments below!!!

    1. I find that orange goes surprisingly well with many things! I SO want an orange Kitchenaid stand mixer but I just bought a silver one 2 years ago so I can't really justify it!

  5. I love getting to know you better! So yeah I'm in NC and yeah we have the Bojos and to be totally honest....I don't even like it anymore!!!! In college it was a the post party night stop (grease heals). However, the Boberries are awesome. If I could send you some without it going bad in shipping I would.

    1. Amanda Bullard I LOVE when you double comment! :) I was thinking I would probably get sick of Bojangles if I had access to it every day. But since I don't, I am obsessed! And my mean friend tags me on Facebook every time she is there!!! I am going to have to find a copy cat Boberrie recipe!

  7. I love how you'll eat bacon but not ham! Why?!
    Hmmm…let's see, something about me… I am still scared of the dark. I leave lights on at night, every night. It drives my husband crazy.

    1. LOL. It drives my husband crazy that I won't eat ham! I think it's just something about the texture that turns me off. But some crispy bacon....YUM!

  9. I also love Judy Blume! I read one of her grown-up books, Summer Sisters, many times. Funny story about that: I was pregnant in high school, and one of my English teachers made us do quiet reading book reports, where he would call us up to his desk and open to a random page in the book and quiz us about it to see if we were really reading it. Well, in that book there are a couple scenes of an inappropriate nature, and he happened to open to one of them. I saw his face get red and immediately blurted out "I didn't read that part!" He looked at me, looked at my prego belly, and says "Sure you didn't" and hands my book back. So embarrassing!!! But so funny now that I look back on it :-)
    Thanks for sharing all these facts, they were fun to read.
