4. Favourite planet?  Earth. (Go on, admit it. You thought I was going to say Uranus.)

5. Do you own more than 100 CDs?  Easily more than that between the two of us. We play three every evening while making dinner.

6. Have you ever finished off the popcorn and ate the junk from the bottom of the bag?  I love the crumbs and powdered flavouring left at the bottom of bags of chips, crackers and other snacks. Ron only likes whole pieces so I always finish off the crumbs.
