Jeana's ABC Meme

I'm anticipating a nutty week of yard care/ frantic housecleaning/ graduation ceremony/ graduation party ending on Saturday with a drive to the Idaho Bloggirls get-together. (woohoo!) I'm afraid that all this busyness will suck the writing ideas right out of me. SO-- I'm glad I was tagged by Jeana for this meme, and by Shannon for one I'll do tomorrow. Two less posts to think up! Thanks, girls!

--------------

Accent: My hubby says southern, but it is pretty subtle, probably just a touch of Ozark, for example: "Ah dunno"

Time I wake up: 7-ish, every day of the week.

Unusual Talent or skill: I'm a multi-tasking queen.

Vegetable I refuse to eat: green beans.

Worst habit: not remembering to cook dinner till people are starving and I have to toss them cookies to appease them while I frantically try to think of something.

X-rays: I've broken two toes, one collarbone, and both arms. Pitiful, ain't I?

Yummy stuff I cook: Korean egg rolls and kimbap
