What More Can I Tell You?

BookMomma over at Hot Wheel Hacienda tagged me to do this Meme, apparently I haven't shared enough of my personal business lately so here I am bearing my soul yet again.

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

I love It's a Wonderful Life.
I adore when Clarence tells George:

'Remember, George: no man is a failure who has friends'.

2. Who is the most famous person you've talked to?
Just kidding.

But a girl can wish right?

I hadn't realised until now that I have pitifully never rubbed shoulders with anyone exciting.

I need to get out more clearly.

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

Far too many, darn delicious fried crispy potato's, how we all love you in the Siswick House.

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

Do Lasagne and Risotto really count?

I do love me some coconut chicken curry too but Rob isn't so keen so it is a rarity.

5. What is your favourite section of the supermarket?

Our local supermarket recently installed those delightful self checkouts and that is now my absolute favourite part of the supermarket ever. There is something truly satisfying about making all of your purchases go beep, beep before you pay for them. I fear there is an unfulfilled checkout girl screaming to escape within me.

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

Sadly we don't indulge in either tradition here in England. It is a sad sad place.

But fortunately we do have High School Musical to give us an insight into what it is really truly like.

You are too, too funny!

Melissa said...

cute! :D

I love it when you do a meme! I always end up laughing out loud (unless I'm nursing, cause I've scared Kingston to death doing that!) ;)

Krystyn @ Really, Are You Serious? said...

Chips/crisps and coconut chicken curry...a girl after my heart!

Jill said...

Love love the insight. I do have to say however, that HSM is not a truly accurate view of American High Schools. There are never THAT many good looking and talented people in one place. Well, maybe in Hollywood.....

Tyne said...

OMG!!! I almost wet my pants when I saw that picture of James Ford. You are so EVIL! You tricky trickster. I am going to eat some potato chips after that syke out.

Claire said...

I thought Saved by the Bell was more of a true reflection of High Schools in the States.

I heart Screech.

Susan said...

Oh man...you had me with that picture as I scrolled down. I totally thought you had met him!

Unknown said...

Yum, I am so hungry now after reading your meme!

Laural Out Loud said...

When I lived in London, Sainsbury's was my most favorite place to go! Sorry- your supermarket comment totally reminded me of that.

Kristen said...

Your HSM comment made me laugh out loud!

Too too funny my dear.

And can I just tell you that I love reading meme's. HATE doing them, but love reading others!!

A-DOR-A-BLE meme!!

Aprille - The Muddled said...

oh lord Im glad someone corrected you / tried to clear our name here in America.

I mean in my school we really only broke out with two fully choreographed musical numbers a day - tops.

The Nice One said...

LMAO, yea HSM is a great, and quite accurate visual of American Schools. I, along with my cohorts fancied dancing on the cafeteria tables on a regular basis.

I WISH.

How come school isn't more like Grease! and HSM? The drop out rate would totally decline.

Kelli @ writing the waves said...

My heart skipped a beat when I saw that picture of Sawyer...shucks!

Heidi said...

What the heck, Jill? My school was EXACTLY like High School Musical. We were all happy, singing fools.

And Carol, you know AJ's high school experience was AWESOME! Anyone can cheer! Anyone can be on the football team! Live the American Dream at Good Ol' Thatcher High! Go Eagles!

Laski said...

#2 got me all excited for you . . .

Miss Lisa said...

Trust me--HSM is not like American high school, we usually only dance in the halls, not the cafeterias ;)

Kristy said...

Oh, how I love Sawyer. Are you as big of a Lost fan as I am???? Best show on TV!

Marla said...

i love risotto... i love crisps... i wish we didn't have mascots and the like....and i love self check out...

Diane said...

You aren't missing a single thing with no mascots. Truly.

I also love self check out b/c you can buy cake and there is never any cashier to look at you funny.

carrie said...

Love those self-checkouts too! I think we both were supermarket checkout girls in our past lives! :)

Ooh, I also have an inner check out girl in me. I love the self check out too!
