Billa nominated me for the Liebster Award. (Lisa did, too. I'll be back, ha ha!)
Rules and procedures. Thank the person who nominated you and link to their blog. Thanks, Billa! Give your readers eleven random facts about yourself.
1. I studied karate for two years.
2. I've tutored English to adult speakers of other languages - a little over two years.
3. Green peppers make me queasy.
4. I find stationary stores almost as much fun as toy stores and bookstores. All that clean paper and those sharp new pens ...
5. I seldom wear jewelry, but sometimes I don this bracelet Brini sent with the doll sweaters. Its smooth silver twist and sea-blue sparkles please me. Pretty bling! Thanks again, Brini!
6. America's Next Top Model is a guilty pleasure. I have never wanted to be a model. I don't particularly care for the fashions shown. I don't know why I watch it. I dislike most reality shows.
7. I prefer to buy my own chocolate.
8. I like sandals in summer and boots or sneakers for fall and winter. Heels? Never!
9. Strawberries, plums, and pink grapefruit are my 3 favorite fruits.
10. I still like to "curl up" with a paper book.
11. I LOVE the Internet, the World Wide Web, and using computers.
