Melinda - humble, honest, what the world needs now - she is true, you can tell, nothing phony about her, need some good, old fashioned modesty, perhaps she will set a trend, I hope so!!! She is phenomenal - makes me cry, she is so not affected!!!
That was my favorite.

But if you are into Sci-Fi, we bond over Dr. Who.
My favorite new man! sm
Russell Crowe was recently interviewed. Here's what he had to say...
As for the future lessons he'll teach his boys about the opposite sex, Crowe says, "Look, when it comes to women, you are talking about mysteries that haven't been unraveled by the wisest scholars of all time. I'm not going to be able to do that. But I can teach my sons to respect them."
If all men could be this smart!
Here's my very favorite
Rugelach
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2-pound unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup granulated sugar plus 9 tablespoons
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 cup raisins
1 cup walnuts, finely chopped
1/2 cup apricot preserves, pureed in a food processor
1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon milk, for egg wash.
Cream the cheese and butter until light. Add 1/4 cup granulated sugar, the salt, and vanilla. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour and mix until just combined. Dump the dough out onto a well-floured board and roll it into a ball. Cut the ball in quarters, wrap each piece in plastic, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
To make the filling, combine 6 tablespoons of granulated sugar, the brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, the raisins, and walnuts.
On a well-floured board, roll each ball of dough into a 9-inch circle. Spread the dough with 2 tablespoons apricot preserves and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the filling. Press the filling lightly into the dough. Cut the circle into 12 equal wedges—cutting the whole circle in quarters, then each quarter into thirds. Starting with the wide edge, roll up each wedge. Place the cookies, points tucked under, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Chill for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Brush each cookie with the egg wash. Combine 3 tablespoons granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon and sprinkle on the cookies. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove to a wire rack and let cool.
When I was a kid, my favorite was
Interjection, but now I really like Unpack Your Adjectives. They are all so clever.
My favorite
For some reason these cookies are the best ever anywhere! Probably because I was a girl scout for 10 years and sold cookies every year with my sister. They too were 50 cents when I sold them and yes I feel like a dinasaur when they look at me like I'm the oldest thing they've ever seen. My favorites are the samoas and lemon cookies. Yum! I'm so excited...now if I can just find where to buy them around here. Hopefully some girlscout will come to my door like I used to go door to door when I was a girl scout.
They are my favorite, too....nm
that WAS my favorite
dark chocolate is a health food. I totally bought into that and after one year, I had to spend all summer on the eliptical just to get rid of my big booty!
my favorite
lazy peach pie - canned peaches with allspice and crushed vanilla wafers
lazy cheese cake - cream cheese on graham crackers with jelly on top
anybody else have favorite snack ideas?

Who is your favorite TV host?
Any type of TV show, news, entertainment, informational/educational, sales, food, decorating, whatever!
I think my favorite has to be Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs. He just cracks me up.
Who's yours?
my most favorite perfume ever!
and i love it!
Jordin is now my favorite . . .
I really liked her from the beginning. It's not just her voice I think she has the wow factor. All the other girls are great this year. Even Haley - even though she forgot the words she was adorable and I think she may get a lot of sympathy votes.
What's your favorite commercial?
I love the one where the guy gets up in the middle of the night and puts the diamond necklace around his wife's neck. When she wakes up he pretends to be asleep but right at the end he just barely starts to smile. He has the sexiest mouth!

Favorite book
I loved the Bobbsey Twins books. Boy, that dates me!
Ah...one of my favorite things to do!! (nm)

My favorite books
My absolute favorite book of all time is Paint the Wind by Cathy Cash Spellman. My next favorite which are hard to find (the author passed away) is by Day Taylor - The Black Swan & Moss Rose.
I used to like Danielle Steele until she started making her characters snooty, but her older books Thurston House, Palamino and The Ring are some of my favorites.
Another good one is Barbara Taylor Bradford's "A Woman of Subtance". Bout a woman from the 1800s/early 1900s who went from being a maid to being a successful business woman. My husband saw the movie and he loved it.
However, I wish I still had the book Paint the Wind. I could read that over and over and over.
what's your favorite commercial right now??
Mine is the hotels.com where they guy gets excited about having 2 shampoos in the hotel and the the wife goes, maybe they are trying to buy you off so you will write a good review...and he goes, it's working...and pours both bottles on his dry head. I don't know why but it just cracks me up every time I see it.
my favorite commercial is sm
The cell phone commercials with the old lady and her mom says who can you be texting and she says my BFF Rose.
favorite movie ever
"Queer Duck - the Movie"
What's your favorite TV show?
That's if you have time to watch TV. I record and watch them at night when I get off work or when I happen to find a free moment. Its nice to record because then I don't have commercials either so it goes by really fast.
I like the Young and the Restless and have been watching for years. It's the only soap I watch, the others just are not realistic enough for me to get in to them. I also like Old Christine but that has not been on lately. There's another show on Monday nights and I can't remember the name of it at the moment. Its about a husband and wife, girlfriend and boyfriend, and a single guy. I'm also a Food Network junkie.
Those are my very favorite books ever...!!!
I've read them all more than once and just LOVE them. Can't wait for the 7th book, but I think that's the last one, which makes me sad.
Sucks to not be mom's favorite....sm

Me too. My favorite was Shaggy - he would sit beside
me when I was a kid and "let" me read to him. He was a kitten abandoned in a snow drift outside an animal shelter in Alaska. Lived with us 15 years!!
If you know their favorite snack
You could buy a nice gift box, the sturdy ones that look like they have wrapping paper on them already...maybe something to match the office, and then fill it with their favorite candy, snack, or coffee/creamors...whatever you know they like. Then wrap it with a nice ribbon.
favorite new inventions
Dish Network Sirius Radio (no commercials)
Anti-smoking legislation (can you believe we used to smoke in the grocery store and movie theater?)
100 choices of shampoo that smells good.
Debit Cards
Dishwashers
I agree internet turned out to be much cooler than I thought it would be.
My favorite things
I personally love the Hubble telescope pictures and when I am feeling creeped out and my problems are big, and my house is a dump, and I look and feel like ______, I look at those Hubble pictures (which are very real) and I realize what a very microscopic little speck I am and how my problems are so stupid and who cares anyway? And then I realize that I am part of this universe and then I feel perfectly right sized and wonderful and happy.

My favorite CA beaches:
For wild coastlines, rocky shores, big waves emptiness... the further north the better, such as Mendocino, and on up into Oregon. Upside: Great walks, quiet time & beachcoming. Downside: Colder weather in summer, surf to rough for swimming, and lots of seals = sharks.
For warmer water but more people: Santa Barbara county has outstanding beaches. Further north there are less-populated beaches with good surfing. Also some, like Emma Wood State Beach or Gaviota State Park, where you can camp.
UC Santa Barbara actually has a lovely beach, as well, and the campus is fun to explore on bikes. In town, there is Stearns wharf, warm sandy beaches, art shows along the Cabrillo Blvd. sidewalk on Sundays, a bike path, a zoo, great restaurants, lots of nice day-trips from that area.
Ventura Beach has some nice hotels right near the water, good bathing & surfing beaches.
LA county has many from Zuma to Santa Monica, too numerous to name. Malibu Creek beach is good for body-surfing, because the water coming into the ocean from the creek there is warmer and clearer.
Santa Monica, Venice & Marina Del Rey are my favorite choice because of all the things right along the water there are to do. The bike path goes all the way from Malibu from the north, all the way down to Huntington Beach and beyond. GREAT biking (you can rent them there) and skating (you can rent those there, as well). If you like to shop, there are lots of funky little shops along the Boardwalk near Windward Plaza. On weekends there's always some sort of entertainment going on. Lots of restaurants, from pizza joints to upscale eateries. Also just 10 min. away from the LA Airport, so a short, cheap cab ride from LAX will get you there.
More expensive hotels are along the waterfront, obviously, but with a family and a budget, stay on Washington street - the further from the beach, the cheaper the rates.
Between LA and San Diego, also too many beaches to count. Of course, the further south you go, the warmer. La Jolla, Oceanside, lots of good surfing down there, too.
San Diego - Mission Bay is a great family spot, tons of stuff to do, bike paths, etc. Plus there's Old Town San Diego, and the side trips of the San Diego Zoo & San Diego Wild Animal Park, that you actually drive through.
Now I've talked myself into wanting to go, too! I'd love to spend 4 or 5 days in San Diego or Venice Beach!
my favorite game
I played a really fun game at someone's baby shower that I have always remembered. You buy a few jars of baby food and take off the labels. Number the jars of food and keep a key around for you so you won't forget what they are! Try picking ones that look similar or might be hard to guess. Pass the baby jars around and get everyone to write down what they think it is. The person with the most correct answers wins. Good luck!
Also one of my least favorite of all time - nm

Favorite Doc Drama
Well, it was Chicago Hope for a long time (I adore Mandy Patinkin), then nothing. Now, it's House but I have to wonder how in the world he got to be as good as he is, when he constantly misdiagnoses the patients for the first 45+ minutes of the show. LOL.
Many classics but I have to say one Amy Grant CD is my favorite
Breath of Heaven and Grown up Christmas List are just beautiful. If you have not heard these, you need to give a listen, you will want to buy the CD. :) I added a link to the song clips (if I did that right.)
My favorite oddball of the night . . .
That girl who sang the Wizard of Oz lion song - I just about died laughing. I hope they bring her back. I don't know how the judges could keep a straight face.
Prego - my favorite for 15 years now! nm

My favorite answer is, "Why do you ask?" and if that
fails, I tell them, "No, I tried it five times and it just didn't work for me."
yep..i love the show, my favorite.
jeffrey, the nut job...is freaky, bet he ends up in jail
they are all cute, but TyneLyn is my favorite
Did you ever ask her what her favorite was?! hehe, TyneLyn help you! I have said to Cupid to help me when I had to kill roaches living in georgia! All they can do is help us to be scared! LOL!
Did you say you had these before in your place? If so, what does your landlord, apt. manager or whoever say about this? Don't worry. I'm sure your safe now. You are going to have fun tonight! Have a great one!
One of my favorite things in New York
Is this Middle Eastern chicken and rice pushcart outside the hilton hotel on 6th avenue and 55th(?). They are there from about 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. It is less than $5 for a huge plate, enough for 2. Really clean and very popular. Was a little leery the first time, but now go there every time I am in the Big Apple.
My kitty's favorite game
is to run down the hall from us so we chase her. Then she hides under my son's bed, and she especially loves this when it's dark at night, and she waits. Then we go to look under and find her. As we turn and walk out of the room, she comes after our ankles and bats us (not with claws). WE turn around and chase her back under the bed and then walk away and she comes out all over again. This is her game...anyone else's cat like hide and seek ?

My favorite thing for iPod -
My daughter's best friend bought her a cassette tape attachment that you can plug in an iPod to in the car and play it over the cassette player. It was just $10.00 at WalMart, and between her iPod and mine, we never need to listen to the radio again!
What are your favorite funny movies?
Mine are (in no particular order)
Wagons East
Super Troopers
Anchorman
Baby's Day Out
Almost Heroes
Elf
By far, our favorite this time of year...
Christmas Vacation - we watch it every year.
Elf is also a great holiday movie
Bruce Almighty
Liar Liar
Austin Powers
Shrek
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
American Pie - not the sequels
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Porky's
Dumb and Dumber
My favorite hot Starbucks drink is...
a grande soy pumpkin spice latte with no whip cream. I have acquired a taste for coffee though, so I can't really tell you if they have a strong coffee taste. Their frozen frappacino things don't taste much like coffee - my 11-year-old niece loves them and she obviously does not like coffee! I say try their smallest size (a tall) and see what you think of the hot lattes. The talls only have 1 shot of espresso and the mediums (grande) have 2 shots.
My favorite coffee drinks are the frozen coffees at Baskin Robbins. You can get whatever kind of ice cream you want mixed with their coffee mix - to die for. I only let myself get 1 or 2 a year though because they are very fattening and expensive. Ice Rages are also delicious cold coffee drinks, and you can get them almost anywhere. The cookies and cream flavor doesn't taste like coffee to me. mmmm, now I need to go and have a cup of coffee! Just an fyi in case you didn't know - a regular cup of coffee suposedly has about 135 mg of caffeine and a shot of espresso has about 35 mg. That's what I read in a magazine anyway, so a latte (with just 1 shot of espresso) is mostly milk with just a little bit of coffee.
got my IPOD - what are your favorite downloads
trying to think of everything I want to put on mine - so far - everything from Creed, Joni Mitchell, Paul Rodgers, Sarah MacLaughlin, Peter Gabriel, and the theme to "Saving Grace" - Everlast - I LOVE that song!
