The other day my friend Leah sent me one of those get to know you fill in the blank types of e-mails. This was not your typical get to know you, though. You were supposed to send it to people to see how well they knew you. I sent it back to Leah, to my sisters-in-law, to my Great Aunt Bea and my husband. I knew J would get the answers right...well, I hoped he would, anyway. I was interested in how well the others would do, though. One of J's answers made me laugh right out loud. Can you guess which one??
I was pleasantly surprised to find that people know me pretty well. That means my life is an open book, right? That could be bad, too, because that means there's nothing new to surprise anyone. But I reject that reality and substitute my own. (Ten bonus points if you can tell me what television show that line comes from!!)

I almost mentioned the one brown spot, but you were always self-conscious about it, so I didn't. LOL
cooking isn't one of your best skills, huh? LOL!!
LOL! Sorry I don't mean to laugh but that was hilarious...cooking sure ain't one of them!!
My brother, sister in law and I have all been on a mad search for a t- shirt that has that saying on it... MYTHBUSTERS! Do I get 10 points now? :) Oh, and I think we went to the same cooking school. For Christmas my mom bought me an apron that say 'He didn't marry me for my cooking'. My question is where does she expect me to wear it?
