• Being Cold - It's the surest and quickest way to turn me into a whiny and cranky person. And I will whine, and pout, and be in a bad mood until I get warm.
• Having wet feet - Unless I'm in the bathtub or swimming, there is no reason on earth that my feet should be wet. Especially if they are wet because of faulty footwear.
• Carnations - I grew up in northern climates, where the availability at flower shops is limited. Carnations were the staple, and so I'm sort of sick to death of carnations. I will NEVER buy carnations. I just think they're so over done.
• Neon Colours - They belong on neon signs, not on clothing, or accessories, and especially not as cowboy hats.

• Making Risotto - I am really pretty miserable in the kitchen when it comes to cooking. I can make pasta, perogies, heat up soup.... the basics. But anything other than that, well, mostly I just don't want to try because cooking isn't something I enjoy. Except when it comes to making risotto. It takes 20+ minutes of constant stirring to make it and perfect timing and can so easily go wrong and I love it. Plus, I'm really good at it. I've made it 5+ times and it's never come out anything other than superb! Go me!

• The first thing I bought with my own money - a My Little Pony. A wedding themed one to be exact. I remember being so proud of myself as I stood at the counter with my dad. When the sales lady told my dad the price, he smile and nodded at me and said "She's paying." I stood on my tiptoes and pushed the money over the counter.
• My first memory - I'm sitting in tall grass, looking out towards a sunfilled clearing with big white tents set up. The forest is all around, but I'm not afraid, I'm overjoyed and feeling good about it being there. I learned later that this memory is from a pack horse trip my parents took with me through the mountains when I was 1 1/2 or 2. While they were out hunting during the day, the camp cook was supposed to be watching me, but I would sneak away and play in the forest.
