Meet the Blogger

Last week on http://nodogaboutit.wordpress.com I saw this blog hop, Meet the Blogger. I thought this was a neat idea. So I have grabbed the badge, put a picture of me and here are my answers at least 5 of the list of questions.


  • What’s your favorite non-animal related book?
    • I have a couple: Timothy Findley's The Wars and Hugo's Les Miserables.
  • What’s your favorite non-animal related movie?
    • Charlie and the Chocolate Factor (with Johnny Depp)
  • Who’s your favorite actor?
    • Probably Mark Walberg right now - although Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and really only Wolverine is my favourite. 
  • What’s one thing you have to do every day?
    • Check my email
  • What makes you feel fabulous?
    • Finishing  my to do list.
  • What do you wish you were more skilled at?
    • Spelling
  • What’s your favorite holiday?
    • Hanukkah (even though I am not Jewish)
  • Favorite meal?
    • It varies as my hubby is such an amazing cook. I love his Mexican Chicken Parmigiana, his brown sugar and apple pork, and he makes these home fries to die for.
  • What one word would people who know you use to describe you?
    • Intense
  • If your pets could talk, what one word would THEY use to describe you?
    • Well trained
  • How is your pet most like you?
    • Lee and I both are intense and have anxiety.
  • What’s one thing you could do to be more kind to yourself?
    • Cut myself some slack. I set very high expectations of myself and may push myself too hard at times.

  17. I'm loving all these meet the bloggers posts. You have to post the Mexican Chicken Parmigiana recipe if there is one. That sounds very interesting and I want to try it.

  18. Wow, you actually FINISH your to-do list? That makes you amazing in my eyes right there. Ha, ha. No matter how many or how few things I have on my to do list for the day, I never finish all of them. I think it is some kind of mental or inner rebellion thing. I can imagine (because that is all I can do) it would feel wonderful to check everything off the list though :)

  19. That's a beautiful picture of you and your sister! Enjoyed learning about you!

  20. What a great photo! So nice to meet you - thanks for joining us!!

  21. "Well trained." LOL - I think all our pets would probably testify to that one.

    So glad you joined the hop and allowed us to get to know you better. I was curious to see if one of your favorite books was going to be the Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy. (There is a character in it named Zaphod Beeblebrox and I was wondering if that's where your Zaphod got his name?)

    He's gorgeous, btw. Both your dogs are.

  24. It's so nice to finally meet you! You are so pretty!
    it's funny what we can learn about each other isn't it? You have always seemed laid back and relaxed to me. Intense is not something I would have guessed. :)

    I love finishing my to-do lists and I love Hugh Jackman, especially as Wolverine.

  25. Nice to meet you. Love the name Zaphod. I'm guessing it indicates you're a fan of the Hitchhikers Guide series?

  28. Thanks so much for joining the blog hop, it's nice to put a face to the name!

    I've learned that so many bloggers share similar traits with each other. I for instance put great expectations on myself too! Maybe we should try to cut ourselves a break in the coming year? :-)
