After seeing Maya answer this, and thanks to her, hearing about it for the first time, I thought I'd also take it. If you have a site, why don't you too?

Questions

1. Best Sandwich?

I adore a croque monsieur (ironically only ever had them in Mexico) and a smoked salmon bagel with dill, salad, and cream cheese.

2. What’s One Thing You Really Should Throw Out?

I don't own enough to warrant an answer to this! Perhaps I took minimalism too far.

3. What's The Scariest Animal?

Cliche as it is, snakes, with the caveat only when you're least expecting them.

4. Apples Or Oranges?

Apples! Always and forever! My favorite is a Granny Smith or a Fuji.

5. Have You Ever Asked Someone For Their Autograph?

Yes! The lovely Wendy Orr, the writer of Nim's Island, one of my childhood favorite books. A friend of the family knew her and I got to meet her. Must've been about ten, it was so exciting!

6. What Do You Think Happens When We Die?

No idea, and I guess I'll find out one day.

7. Favorite Action Movie?

Do Star Wars films count as action movies?

8. Favorite Smell?

It's a tie between roasting coffee, cinnamon, and bread baking.

9. Least Favorite Smell?

My sense of smell isn't great, so in this instance it's a blessing.

10. Exercise: Worth It?

Yes, always, regardless of how you have to fight with yourself to do it. Don't give in!

11. Flat Or Sparkling?

Don't enjoy carbonated beverages. Much prefer plain water.

12. Most Used App On Your Phone?

The browser (which is currently Firefox) by far. A close second is Obsidian (my notes app) and Samsung Music, because, of course.

13. One Song To Listen To For The Rest Of Your Life: Which?

This is a hard question! Probably Love Is An Ocean by The Midnight or Blackbird by Fat Freddy's Drop. The answer changes depending on the day.

14. What Number Am I Thinking Of?

Not sure! 2024? The year I started this site?

15. Describe The Rest Of Your Life In 5 Words?

Who knows how it'll go?
