It's Meme Time!

I was tagged by the lovely Pat over at Here, There, and Everywhere 2nd edition
 Haven't done a meme...or much of anything else...lol, in quite a while. (says the very guilty blogger) So here we go!

 Post the Rules : And the rules are!
1. Answer the eleven questions that were asked of you by the person who tagged you
2. Make up eleven new questions and tag eleven new people to do the meme!
3. Let them know you tagged them!


1. What are your most favorite books that you have read more than once. (name at least two)
I'll do two more recent, and two that I haven't read in a bit, but have been read to the extent of being worn out :)
Enders Game by Orson Scott Card
The Obsidian Trilogy by Mercedes Lackey, James Mallory 
1979 Golden Anniversary AKC The Complete Dog Book
A Horse Around The House" by Patricia Jacobson and Marcia Hayes
Oh, and I have to add Mad Maudlin by Mercedes Lackey, Rosemary Edghill, James P. Baen...much love to that one and Music to My Sorrow, also by the aforementioned <3
  
2. Who is your favorite male character from a book? 
Ahhh, just one? No can do. Must.....add......more! Kellen Tavadon, (The Obsidian Trilogy) Harry Dresden, (Dresden Files) Masterharper Robinton, (Pern!!) and I'm also lovin Kvothe , (The Name of the Wind)

3. Who is your favorite female character from a book? 
Unfortunately, there aren't as many but...Lessa, (Pern!!) and Karigan G'ladheon, (Green Rider series)

4. What is the last book that you read that is out of your comfort zone, and did you enjoy it? 
I'd have to say of Blood and Honey by Stina Leicht, I know, I know...not much of a stretch because it did have some fantasy elements to it, but it was mostly historical fiction and that's not really my thing. Especially since the actual events were pretty horrific :o Enjoy?....yes and no....But I did learn a lot from, and because of it :) and that I always enjoy.
5. If you could have gone on the movie sets of any movie and watched it being made, which movie would you choose, and why? 
The Lord of the Rings...Fellowship. Oh so many reasons...The shire, Rivendell, the actors, the horses!!!! What a dream <3

6. What food is your most guilty pleasure? 
Ok, guilty pleasure would have to infer high cal, high fat yes? So I would have to say, long-hots stuffed with Prosciutto and Gorgonzola. Add a big loaf of Italian bread and some extra virgin olive oil and I'm a very happy girl ;) And maybe definitely a nice Cabernet :D

7. If you could travel somewhere (money is no object) where would you go? 
Oooooo, this is a tough one because I am really....really...boring. Disney World, that's always my first pick, but I would soooo love to see the sequoias in California...seriously. I just can't imagine the enormity of them and how peaceful it would be there.

8. If you could change one thing in our world, what would it be? 
Wow, this is an incredibly difficult question. There are many things I would change point blank. I would definitely change the fact that not all people in this world have equal rights and freedoms. All people are entitled to an education, All people should be able to marry the person they love, All people should be able to own property, choose their religion, their clothing, their job, their lifestyle, and all people should be able to retire comfortably...not on poverty level.

9. What is something that you’d like to accomplish this year? 
I have two more businesses that I need to get up and running this year. If I can accomplish that, and my home projects...I will be ecstatic!

10. What are 3 things that are very important to you? 
My family, my pets and my friends...if I have all of them, nothing else matters.

11. If you could go back in time, where and when would you be?
I would never be able to live in another time, but to visit, hmmmmm...alright here's the geek in me coming out...i'm of a mind that if I were to go back to any point in time it would alter things...I know, I know, i'm over thinking it, but it's what I do...lol Gotta tell ya though, I wouldn't mind seeing Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire dance in the flesh :D

Felicity Grace Terry said... Best Blogger Tips

What great answers you give, I always think these tags tell us such a lot about that blogger and in such a fun way.

Many thanks for thinking of me, I'm more than happy to answer your questions.

Novroz said... Best Blogger Tips

I tried commenting this earlier today but it seemed that your blog refused my comment from my mobilephone :(

Thank you for tagging me,it's a fun meme and I will do it this Saturday,is it okay if I don't tag anyone? I am not creative in creating such questions...sorry.

I love your number 10's answer, I would have answered the same. And I would also love to be in The Lord of the Rings set...at least the upcoming hobbit

SQT said... Best Blogger Tips

Hmmm. I'll have to think about some of those questions. :)

DesLily said... Best Blogger Tips

good answers!.. you will have to fight me for masterharper Robinton! lol..he's one of my "unforgettable's" too!

since I did get to see a tiny bit of the Undiscovered Contry being filmed I think I'd opt to watch the last Star Trek movie being made... specifically : numb tongue! lol and any parts Karl Urban is in..and i adored Chekov lol

hmmm what is my favorite season?..in florida?..winter! in a state that you actually GET seasons it would be a hard call between spring, watching things come alive again, and fall, with all the wonderful fall smells and that crisp fresh air.

Susan said... Best Blogger Tips

Pat tagged both of us, so I came to see what your answers were. I enjoyed them, especially when I saw that we would both love to be at LotR or The Hobbit right now while they film! I couldn't pick just one male character either, or female.

My Gallery of Worlds said... Best Blogger Tips
