The Latest Meme

You are all having so much fun doing the latest meme that I just had to try it. Here goes:

1. Take a look at the walls of your home, which picture or object is your favourite?

We have a collection of framed photos of fungi growing on the forest floor. Ron took the pictures when we went to a woodland searching for lady slipper orchids.

2. What is your favourite perfume?

My current favourite is Tabu, and I like it when Ron wears Pierre Cardin.

3. How many pairs of shoes do you own? Have you ever hidden new shoes from your spouse?

I have 15 pairs (I just counted them) plus four pairs of winter boots. I mainly wear my Blundstone boots or sports shoes for everyday wear, and have a few pairs of dress shoes that rarely get worn. Ron doesn't care about shoes, and neither do I, so I don't have to hide them.

4. Snacks - sweet or salty? If you could have a no calorie snack what would it be?

I prefer salty snacks. Corn chips of any kind are my favourite. For a sweet snack I love English toffees. At Christmas we indulge in Bailey's Irish Cream chocolates.

  
5. What are your favourite cut flowers?

I love peonies. The fragrance reminds me of the garden of my childhood where my grandmother grew a variety of plants in many different colours.

6. Without using a real name, describe one person in your life with whom you have trouble being patient?

A close female relative. Just hearing her voice makes me annoyed and tense.

7. What food do you love that your spouse hates and vice versa?

I enjoy smoked salmon and Ron doesn't, so I have it when I am alone at lunchtime. I hate cilantro, so we never use it in cooking, and I don't even think Ron knows what it tastes like. He enjoys horseradish with beef, but I avoid it.

8. What is the song you associate with meeting your honey?

No particular song, but we both love Stan Rogers, so I often think of going to concerts with Ron when I hear one of Stan's songs.

9. Do you have a favourite movie that you watch every few months or once a year?

We watch Prancer every year at Christmas.

10. What collection(s) do you have and how did they start?

We buy red and white wine in 4 litre boxes, and currently I am collecting the spigots from the plastic bags that the wine comes in, inside the boxes. I don't know what I will do with them; maybe make a wreath.

11. Where would you like to go on your next holiday? Is there somewhere else on your bucket list?

Anywhere would be fine with me!

12. If you could buy clothes at one store where would it be?

I wish I could still shop at Liz Claiborne, but unfortunately that brand has been absorbed into another company and no longer has standalone stores. I do most of my shopping at Mark's.

13.What gifts from your spouse have you most appreciated?

Jewellery, flowers, cosmetics and other girly things.

14.Name one item of your spouse's clothing you would like to get rid of.

He has a t-shirt that is ridiculously small. We each received one last Christmas, in size x-small which neither of us can wear. I passed mine along to a thrift shop immediately, but Ron insists on keeping his, and says he can fit into it. Yeah, right!

15. What is the submissive action or inaction that you are most proud of?

I can't think of one in particular. Every day is an exercise in submission.
