It's My Blog and I Can Meme If I Want To

Stole this meme from Carol @ Siswick Construction Zone, who was tagged by BookMomma @ Hot Wheel Hacienda. I suppose maybe I’ve done enough memes in my short blogging career but this one actually looked remotely different from all the rest, so you know I had to jump on that.

1. What is your favorite quotable line from a movie?

Lets see I think the movies I probably quote the most are Biodome [“free mahi mahi, free mahi mahi, if you will”], Princess Bride [“Inconcievable!” among others], and Roman Holiday. The one I quote most frequently varies by the season. Right now we’re big on quoting Roman Holiday by being uber mockingly polite. It goes something like this.

“Thank you.”

“No thank you.”

“Charmed.”

::hilarious laughter::

::blank stares from onlookers not in the know::

2. Who is the most famous person you’ve talked to?

Well I’m not sure how famous they are, but I’ve met the band Dispatch – kinda popular with the college crowd, at least they were. I’ve also met several local musicians who I think are star-worthy: Jonah Cohen and Rebecca Loebe being my two favorites.

3. How many bags of potato chips (crisps) are consumed at your house per month?

Well for the most part we stick to things like Trader Joes cheese puffs or tortilla chips with the occasional weak moment that finds us buying Doritos or Wachusett Sour Cream and Onion heaven potato chips. I’d guess we go through approximately 1 and a half bags a week. Times four that’s about 6 bags a week. Is that bad?

4. What foreign dish do you prepare from scratch and serve?

My enchilda pizza is mostly from scratch – I mean, I don’t like make my own tortillas or taco seasoning, but I slice my own vegetables, cook my own meat, assemble myself, bake myself, etc. Does that count? It’s delicious by the way. If that helps to make it count as “home made” anyway…

5. What is your favourite section of the supermarket?

Um the delicious tasty bakery. I may have mentioned I have a bit of a sweet tooth – that’s the section I sneak into at the end of the grocery trip, especially if I’ve behaved a lot in other sections. Ready made cakes, pies, cheesecake, cookies, muffins and breads… oh so hard to resist.

6. What was your high school’s team mascot and colours?

I went to two high schools – the first’s mascot was The Trojan, and the colors were purple and white. A lot of jokes about “school spirit” were made. Trust me. Second school’s mascot was a Mountaineer, colors were green and white – a mountaineer as far as I can tell is an old man with a stick. Very few “school spirit” jokes made about that other than, “Hey you punk kid, get off my lawn!”

So let’s see… who to tag (not that I was tagged, but hey, what does that really matter)… About whom would I want to know the answers to these questions… I think I’ll try to tag 6 people just to make this all even Steven…

– edit –

How did I manage to publish this and completely forget to actually tag people? Am I a moron or a mother? Or both? Well…

Patrice @ Not a Girl, Not a Woman – I know your busy with school and frat parties and all, but a meme, that should be easy for you lady! Make it work!

McMommy @ The McMommy Chronicles – I’m thinking filling this meme out is the least she can do to thank me for voting for her for the Hottest Female Blogger. Am I right?

Jenni @ Jiggity Jigg – I know you’re all busy being sassy, smart and savvy, but I’m hoping you’ll make time for some super survey sensationalism in your spare time. 🙂

Dooce – Yeah I totally just tagged the infamous Dooce to a meme. I’m just curious to see if she’ll ever actually read a blog this wee little, and if she did, if she’d actually fill this out. Consider it an experiment, if you will, I know John Mayer has not yet responded to my blog post concerning his romantic affairs, so clearly mega star musicians are not reading my blog – but maybe just maybe, a fellow mommy will hook a sister up and make my wildest bloggy dreams come true?

Susie @ Raising the Boys – Woman, you need to post more. At least do us the honor of a meme for pete’s sake!

Jen @ Stuff Jen Says – You know you want to. Please? It’ll only take several minutes… And then if Dooce fills it out, too, you can be all like, “Yeah dooce and I… we meme together.”

    My Enchilada Pizza Recipe:

    It’s kind of like a Mexican pizza but enchilada style – I preheat the oven to 350, then cook up 1 lb ground beef, add a packet of taco seasoning and 3/4 cups water, then continue cooking meat until the seasoning / sauce is “thick” or basically, until it’s not watery and all the meat is covered. Then I use a flat round skillet that can go in the oven, and place a tortilla on the bottom, add cheese, then another tortilla and so on until it’s full, finishing with a tortilla, then topping it with a can of enchilada sauce – we like the green chile style. And then lots more cheese – haha can’t get enough cheese. It’s bakes for 20-25 minutes or so. We usually top the servings with diced tomatoes, sour cream, and or guacamole. It is really really delicious and really pretty easy all things considered.
