While my parents and I lived in India, when I was a child, I had an absolute horror of spicy food! That only changed about ten years later when I was in college in the US.

When I lived in New Zealand, I taught myself to swim by traversing the pond that was on the farm, much to my mother's horror since I was alone. When she said: "You could have drown!" I replied: "But I can swim!"
Ah, the lovely innocence of childhood ..... it's surprising I made it to adulthood.

When I lived in the high mountains of Washington State, I walked across Lake Easton on ice even though it was making these 'starwars' blaster sounding pings and twangs as I went.

I always hated snakes until one of my cats started bringing them into the house for me to remove. I finally got up the nerve to pick one up, and was totally surprised by how cool it was.

Damn! Another musician from my halcyon days has died.

The first musical pieces I can remember hearing to this day (and own most of them by now), long before I started collecting records on my own, was what my dad played in the early to middle sixties in India: some stuff by Duke Ellington / Johnny Hodges / Coleman Hawkins, Herbie Mann, Dave Brubeck, and the 1938 Carnegie Hall concert by Benny Goodman (probably Louis Armstrong too).

I can't get past the smell of cantaloupe long enough to actually eat it.

I never got the appeal of mushrooms as a food.

If I was going to waist money on buying something expensive (assuming it was under $1000) it would most likely be spent on extremely yummy food.

I love a nice, sharp cheddar so much that one of my boyfriends used to give me cheese as a gift instead of flowers and chocolates.

OOohh... Cheese.... I love cheese! I found some lovely Tasmanian Cheddar at the deli the other day! My 'go-to' cheese is Nimbin Elbow style cheese. It costs a bomb at the local grocery though, but am glad the IGA started carrying it for 2 bucks less now! Mmmm....Cheese.... Have to add that some of the best cheese I had was gotten at The Cheese Box in Lake Geneva Wisconsin.

I don't know what the price of cheese is like Down Under but it's criminal here. Mind you, that doesn't stop me.
I'm very fond of a sharp Lancashire cheddar, or a lovely old Balderson's cheddar.

The 'bomb' I mentioned in my last post is $10AU for 500g. The IGA was always $2 cheaper for it, but quit carrying it for several months. They got it back again and it's still $2 cheaper than the local Cole's Grocery.

I have liked reading at night for as long as I can remember - when all others are asleep, I don't get interrupted (which can be very annoying when the book I'm reading needs me to concentrate).

I read before I go to sleep and, not infrequently, fall asleep with the book on my chest. After which, I awake with a start, and turn off the lamp.
