In A Word


I am not a woman of few words, my regular readers know that. So when the divine Holly Dietor of Your Mother Knows But Won't Tell You bestowed this cool award on me (THANK YOU!), I was flattered and tried to rise to the one word challenge. Holly's blog is a daily "must read" for me and I think it will be for you too. Please stop by and show her some love.

The idea of the Your Blog Is Over The Top Award is to answer a list of questions using only ONE word! Here's my best shot....

1. Where is your cell phone? Car

15. Muffins?
Cookies
16. Wish list item?
Garden
17. Where did you grow up?
Ohio
18. Last thing you did?
Woke up
19. What are you wearing? Glasses

20. Your TV?
Off
21. Your pet?
Rock
22. Friends?

23. Your life?

27. Something you're not wearing?

28. Your favorite store? Books

29. Your favorite color?
Periwinkle
30. When was the last time you laughed?
Now
31. Last time you cried?
Sunday
32. Your best friend?
Fabulous
33. One place that I go to over and over? Home

34. One person who emails me regularly?
BFF
35. Favorite place to eat?
Mom's

I'm to pass this award along to six Over The Top Blogs that I don't think have participated in this popular meme yet. If you'd like to play along too, feel free to join in. If not, NO pressure.

Jayne at AC's Scrapbook (She has a great giveaway going on too!)
Cut and paste these questions to your post. Please let me know if you play along.

Thanks again Holly. You are my Sister in Snark and I love you!

Is there one word that would describe YOU?

  4. Ooh I'm one of the group of 'meme~ers'? Goodee! I liked the last one *so* much - although that worries me slightly because it has everything to do with talking about me, myself and I. That probably says a lot about me!

    Thanks for the giveaway mention too. You're an absolute gem. :)

    Thanks for the shout out!

  7. That is fun to get to know more about you in one word answers. My two favorites on your list are that you are not gullible and your TV is OFF. Love it.

  13. I thought blogging was your hobby but maybe you take it more seriously.

    Some words mean more than a whole paragraph, so one word answers are useful.

  14. Congratulations, Joanna! Your answers are wonderful. But, I'm sorry you cried on Sunday unless they were tears of joy.

    Big hugs!!

  18. You had a dream about cows? Where they dancing or talking to you? Did you just have a large t-bone?

    That is bizarre.

    ReplyDelete
  19. That was great! Thanks for sharing.

  20. Interesting questions and answers. Cookies or muffins....that is a tough one. I would find it challenging to answer some of the questions with just one word.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Congrats on your award!
    Cookies over muffins? Absolutely!

    ReplyDelete
  22. It was really hard to do just one word when I felt like I could write whole posts on some of them.

    But even that is good,if I get 'stuck' (what will I write today?!!) I can refer back to that post.

  23. I love it! I'll definitely copy and paste it someday soon.

  24. Cows!!! That ought to make your psychiatrist wonder....just teasing.

  28. One word that left us wanting more? Cows. Too, too funny!

    I played along because I liked the award graphic. Single word answers are extremely difficult for us old broads!!
