I would agree on the favourites issue- there are things that I like at the moment, but favourite is so definite.
ReplyDeleteI have three passports, from three different continents.
Three authors whose books stretched my mind
1. Lois McMaster Bujold
2. Kage baker
3. Diana Wynne jones
Passports: 3 more than I have. :-)
DeleteThank you for introducing me to these authors.
Melting pot!! Major YUM!!
ReplyDeleteThree Places I have Been:
1. Las Vegas, NV
2. California (several places)
3. Nassau, Bahama's
♥ The Melting Pot! Woot!
DeleteIs it (what is IT?) better in the Bahamas?
Fun! And I also agree on the favorite thing.
ReplyDeleteI'll do the job thing -
1. Tour guide at a castle
2. Security guard at a mall
3. Counsellor at a group home for teen girls
Love the job varieties. Fascinating. :-)
DeleteSo interesting! I also struggle with "favorite." I couldn't pick a favorite book if I tried. That picture scared me at first because I thought it was someone in a creepy suit until I realized it was a sculpture... :)
ReplyDeleteThree Random Things About Me:
1) I have margaritas out every Friday
2) Three of my "favorite" authors are Margaret Atwood, Jenny Lawson, and Ann Patchett
3) I don't like any red in the garden -- pink, burgundy, and a tiny bit of orange is okay, but NO RED. Sort of weird.
Yes, one of Chicago's many public art pieces. It think it is called, "The Swing" - fun piece. :-)
DeleteNo red? Fun fact-cool.
I don't have any red either, but by happenstance, not design.
Jobs:
ReplyDelete1. grocery store cashier
2. grape picker
3. piece worker (sewed zippers into Johnny Carson suits)
And I also don't allow any red or orange in my flower gardens.
What a variety.
DeleteIs there something about red (or orange) that is garden taboo or is it a personal aesthetic?
Enquiring mind . . .
Oooh, I love your list, and I'm loving the comments too.
ReplyDeleteThree drinks:
1. NZ Sauvignon blanc
2. Fresh lime juice from Thailand
3. A frozen mango daiquiri
PS. My red camellia is flowering in my garden at the moment, and it is beautiful!
I can well imagine. :-)
DeleteLove the responses. Yum...daiquiri
I'd like to borrow this idea for a future post. I'm stockpiling for future MicroblogMondays & NaBloPoMo.
ReplyDeleteHave at it. I love the idea. :-)
DeleteFun! I love reading these! And, what a strong feeling red flowers have for a bunch of people. Weird.
ReplyDeleteMy three are jobs:
1. Cowboy (ranch-hand, but cowboy is also accurate)
2. Field biologist (botanist for Forest Service)
3. Gorilla-suit-clad balloon bouquet deliverer (what? it was money!)
Thanks for the entertainment, Deb!
Isn't it?
DeleteWhy am I not surrised by the cowboy (or the gorilla-suited balloone bouquet deliverer? LOL
This was so much fun to read!! I just stumbled upon Rosemary & Thyme a few weeks ago when I didn't turn off the TV right away after Midsomer Murders & I really enjoy it. I'm a speeder but not one of those ridiculous nutjobs who cuts in and out of lanes. I'm a huge sports' fan & hate when they put the game you're watching into a little screen & show you other games or a guy they're interviewing for 20 minutes right in the middle of the game. I kept track of how many different Olympic sports I watched. It was 60+
ReplyDeleteAwesome facts.
DeleteI bumped into Rosemary & Thyme quite by accident as well.
I am so with you on losing things and waste. And okra.
ReplyDeleteThis was a fun read.
:-) Thank you.
DeleteHa! Oldsmobile Delta 88 my dad used to have one of those! I drove it once and backed it up into the drainpipe on the side of the house. Ah, the good old days!
ReplyDelete3 jobs:
bingo girl (giving out change)
telemarketer
human resources clerk
It was a great car.
DeleteI have done two of your 3 jobs. ;-)
