The day I got my first dog – my German Shepherd – Silky.  It was a surprise – my driver was taking us all to the park and we stopped at a building. The driver asked me to help him bring something down and when the door opened – I was greeted by a house full of dogs.  This lady told me I could have my pick of any of the puppies.  In the elevator on the way down, a woman asked me if I was holding a baby – and I let her move the blanket in which I was holding my new puppy and she totally freaked out !

Nice new theme!

Alright, where to start here...

There wasn't really anything eyebrow raising in your answers, although I'm sure that wasn't your intent to begin with. One thing I'm good at (and I'm not good at much) is reading people, so this was all pretty par for the course. :)

A couple of things I have to praise you for, are your love of beaches (again, since you've made that pretty clear in the past), and Pizza Margherita, which is just spectacularly awesome. And also the Ben & Jerry's. But I don't eat too much of that for obvious reasons. Oh, and that bakery pita bread thing in Dubai sounds beyond great, do they deliver?

Finally, on an informative note, my blog is practically dead. But a new one has already risen from it's ashes. It's shiny.

Chicky said...

Completely finally! Phewwww!
