The secrets that you want to share

Eve's lungs tagged me the other day :) When I was a kid some of my classmates had this notebook with questions like the ones below, you know, the usual, "who do you like?" or "would you go out with this guy?" You were not supposed to show it to those who didn't want to participate...because after all those were your secrets! and the ones of the other boys and girls too! I remember it was all very solemn :) In Spanish these notebooks are called chismógrafos and are more or less the equivalent of the tags...I like them from time to time. Anyway, enjoy and play along if you like:

The sunny side up or over easy refers to how you like your fried eggs - with the yolk showing (sunny side up) or flipped over (over easy).

Mojitos are my fave, too.

Interesting meme!

Oh I like mojitos too but prefer my vodka undiluted generally . And thanks for calling me an artist . Why did you say that ?Just curious :)

La delirante said...

@Thanks Jen :)
Now I know what that is, I think I prefer the "sunny side up" :)

@Hi Honest ape! Sorry I didn't mention your name with the tag :( I had to go somewhere and I just had the time to write a couple of names but I am very glad that you played :) Your answers are very interesting :) Have never heard of "Cranium" or "Culver's" I think I will google it in a bit. I loved your answer to your favorite smell and the favorite place to relax :) Lovely!

@Hi Kenneth! Welcome to the blogosphere! Thanks for sharing the video. It is really good, a mojito cubano prepared by a Cuban girl :)

@Hi Eve's lungs :) You are truly an artist. I love the way you write. It makes you feel like you are there when you are reading. I especially liked that post when you are describing that house, the windows and all the atmosphere is surreal, beautiful :)

I like the same magazines you read and share the same anxieties with you. :-)

Interesting post.
