Okay, we’re
supposed to introduce ourselves as co-hosts of the A to Z Blogging Challenge
Team and though I answered a few questions last month on A Tarkabarka Hölgy’s
post, I liked some of the others and thought it’d be fun to answer them now…
Which exotic fruit would you be willing
to eat on a bet?
 |
| Cashew "apple" and "seed" |
The “cashew” apple fruit! Check this
out! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cashew
What is your opinion on
cross-breeding dragons?
I think it is a fabulous idea. Who
doesn’t need more variety in dragons?
 |
| My favorite, Pern Dragons |
 |
| Oscar Wilde, dreamy... |
For which historical figure do you
harbor a secret crush?
Oscar Wilde. Yes, I know he was gay and wouldn't have gone for me, but I don’t care! He was amazing.
Do you like sleeping?
I LOVE to sleep. I love when I dream. I don’t like it when I sleep poorly. Sleep is seductive to me, perhaps too seductive!
What is your best form of exercise?
I like to take classes at my gym so that I do something different every day. Spinning, SpinFlex, aerobics, resistance training. I like them all.

| Bonaparte |
Which do you prefer, horses, dogs,
cats, lizards?
Dogs, little dogs. I like cats and horses too, but wouldn’t own them anymore. I like to watch lizards but not own them. I like my little Bonaparte…You know, little body, big ego!

Are you excited about the 2015 A-Z?

| Our team badge! |
Is that a rhetorical question? Ha ha! Of course! And trepidatious (yes, it is a word) as well. It’s
a LOT of work, but it is also a lot fun to visit so many different kinds of
blogs. It’s the only time of the year, really, where I can spend that much time
reading that many blogs. During the rest of the year, work and life take over,
but in April, I can set aside the time, and I do, to visit and learn…And this year I have a team to help me co-host!! Heather McCubbin, Randi Lee, Stephanie Faris, Bob R. Milne, Eva Solar, Doreen McGettingan, and Rhonda Albom. Together we are known as "Lisa's LiveWires." Yay! Here is our badge, thanks to Jeremy!

Are you a vet or do you have any
veterans in your family?
I'm not a veteran. My grandfather was a WWII vet. My father was a vet of the Korean WAR (officially “Conflict”). My Step-Dad is a Vietnam vet. All three of my uncles were Navy Vets. My cousin just got out after serving three tours in Afghanistan. He’s now in school. My nephew is a vet, and is in school as well. My husband's cousin is a vet, and a lawyer who takes a stance on vet's issues and helping them out. We've got vets!

Have you ever been to Texas, and if
so, which part?
I lived in Waco, Texas for 18
years. Loved it, mostly! And just to set the record
straight, the Branch Davidians were NOT in WACO. They were in a small town 20
miles north of Waco called MOUNT CARMEL, go figure. Wacoans, took—and
take—great offense to the media naming our town the scene of that disaster. Even
now it’s called the “Waco Siege.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waco_siege
Waco is home to Baylor University.
The town is located in the perfect spot to travel all over the Eastern half of
Texas and a great place to raise kids. I have two native Texans!
