Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post or comment about it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, religious leanings, thoughts on yaoi, favorite type of underwear, graphic techniques, hairstyles, sports, etc.

:)

p.s. HAPPY FRIDAY!

Hmmmm.... *thinks*

Two Parter: How do you think most American's perceive "the rest of the world" and how do you think they perceive you? Why?

Thoughts on religion and do you think it plays any part in the above question?

... hmm those are bit deep and meaningful...

addendum: Do you hope that Fenrir Greyback turns up in the next Twilight movie and rips all the sparkly people to bits?

Ohh, thinky thoughts!

I think that it's kinda hard to classify most American's perceptions as being the same/similar, just because we are so vastly different. I mean, I do believe that in general Americans are very self-centered, we focus on America and don't tend to notice what's going outside of our own country. We are a very me-oriented, entitlest society as a whole. I don't think religion has a lot to do with that. I do think that some Americans see the rest of the world as inferior rather than just different. Personally, I know that a lot of people in this area (the valley where I live) don't have much opinion of people or events outside of us. This is our lives; anything that doesn't directly influence us isn't our concern.

I'm quite obviously not good at thinky thoughts, sorry. Apparently there's a reason I don't blog about these things.

Hmm...what about, food/culture/tradition, as it pertains to your family =)

Happy Friday too!

My immediate family? We just like to spend time together, so the 12 of us get together quite often and eat and just hang out.

One of the things our pastor likes to say is that the Brethren like three things -- to worship, to eat, and to talk. Which is so so true. Within the fellowship of our church family, we get together a lot (weekly dinners at church, breakfast between sunday school and worship, church picnics, special events like Taters and Tunes) and do those three things.

I think that spending time together with food and family (blood or otherwise) and conversation is such an excellent thing, and I love that the kids get to be part of that.

That didn't really answer your question, but whatever. :)

I'm always into the foodly arts- what is your favorite dessert to eat and is it the same as your favorite dessert you have the cooking skills to make yourself?

My favorite dessert. Hmm. I don't know that I actually have a favorite anything, b/c I'm so indecisive and usually things like that depend on my mood. Dessert actually probably depends on what's in season. Right now my favorite is strawberry shortcakes, but if you asked me later in the year it's be peach cobbler, or apple pie. I can make all those things. If I'm looking for a quick and easy dessert though, I'll usually make rice pudding.
