Oh, wow! LOL! Didn't expect to see myself tagged for a meme, here. ;-)
I like your list. Why can't you watch Star Wars?
Paz
Star Wars
Ugh
I *have* tried to watch it...several times...but after five minutes I just get bored and flip the channel or start reading or sleeping or leave.
And now they've made it more complicated with the first three not being the first three but the last three.
Ugh.
Star Wars.
awww u're short like me. I had no idea!! I can't seem to grow to 5'0 lol yup I'm really only 4'11 & 3/4" but I usually fib it..lol
My first meme! This will be fun. Love your lists (Colin Firth! Colin Firth!), too, and I can't wait to read your novel!!
LOL! That bad for you, huh? ;-) I haven't seen the last three episodes (that are supposed to be the first three.)
Paz
Sigh, I claim 5'1" as my height, but I am a mere 5'0.75"...we are not short, but petite...in the true sense--Kate Moss, Nicole Ritchie etc etc are scrawny.
Re: Star Wars--The Fussy Eater is threatening to have me sit down and watch the trilogy (or whatever). Unless I can bring my knitting or my laptop, I'm not interested...
He also takes issue with my list of things said. According to him, I should have included "No" and "I have no recollection of that." I of course, say "No, I have no recollection of those my frequent phrases."

What is it with all us, er, petite foodbloggers? I'm a mere 5'0" myself.
Yay on the BBC Pride & Prejudice ... I Watch it all the time and in no particular order ... its just that good.
love your answers & your blog!
Rorie:
Absolutley fabulous things come in small packages...I think it's because we don't suffer from breathing thinned oxygen at our altitude :)
j
I have a friend who's 4'9". Now, that's petite! ;-)
I like to watch P&P, too. ;-)
haha to The Fussy Eater's additional comments and your response. ;-)))
Paz
