Playing Tag
July 19, 2006
A while back I was "tagged" via e-mail to play the "5 Things Game", and by a 'while ago', I mean months, as it takes me that long to get through the e-mail. And I admit I was reading over at Very Good Cooking and it was a good reminder to get it done.
Normally I don't do these things because I never think I have anything interesting to add. But here it goes:
Five items in the freezer.
1. Slivered almonds.
2. Edamame.
3. Homemade breadcrumbs.
4. A retarded icemaker that poops out massive chunks of ice instead of nice cubes. Makes me mad every time I try to get them out of the catch tray.
5. Bananas. Because I keep holding out hope.
Five items in my closet.
1. Way too many shoes.
2. Photo albums.
3. Clothes - all over the place. The most recent outfit is still on the floor after trying it on and realizing the pants made my arse look like The Great Pyramids. They were thrown on the floor in disgust and there they shall remain until they can learn to be more flattering.
4. Work clothes.
5. Suitcases. Suitcases that mock me.
Five items in my car.
1. A hammer. I am trying to remember why I put it in there, and refuse to take it out until I do. Because when I take it out, I will need it.
2. Deodorizer - just in case of errant smelly cheeses.
3. $325.43 worth of change that drives The Husband crazy as it rattles when it drive.
4. A notice for license tab renewal... which caused me to gasp when I wrote this because I put it in there so I would remember to get the tabs before they expired... on June 30th. CRAP.
5. Pens.
Five items in my wallet.
1. A debit card.
2. A recipe stolen from a magazine in my dr's office.
3. About 4000 grocery receipts that make snapping the wallet impossible.
4. Driver's License with a picture that makes me look stoned and angry.
5. Business cards.

I hear you about the closet. I've "grounded" several of my outfits too for being mean and cruel instead of sweet and flattering. D*** them, I WILL win over their rebellious attitudes towards me.

Hey, I've got a hatchet under the passenger seat in my car. Same rationale: if I take it out, I'll need it and won't be able to find it. If I leave it there, I'll know where it is. And I have no idea why it ended up there in the first place.

I love the car list... I'm just as bad. Why do we haul that stuff around? I've got mine posted on my blog, so rather than post it here, I'll post the link.

Glad to hear about the stolen recipe. I did that last month. Serves them right for having Bon Apetit.

I am so glad I'm not the only one who hoards over-ripe bananas in my freezer in hopes of using them some day.
