Meme that I should NOT have picked up...

[electricalgwen]

...but I was having a goofy evening watching cordelianne's vid recs* and being immersed in Buffy love, and when the meme popped up from entrenous88 I couldn't resist. Now I must pay.

Comment and:

1. I’ll respond with something random about you
2. I’ll challenge you to try something
3. I’ll pick a color that I associate with you
4. I’ll tell you something I like about you
5. I’ll tell you my first/clearest memory of you
6. I’ll tell you what animal you remind me of
7. I’ll ask you something I’ve always wanted to ask you
8. If I do this for you, you must post this on yours!

It is now midnight here, however, and I'm going to bed, so don't expect anything immediate. :)

*omg, Ice Ice Baby made me laugh like a complete loon, and Cowboy was hilarious too. Then Counting Bodies took my breath away. Thanks, cordelianne!

Meeeee! :D

It's all about you... it's all about you, baby, yeah! *hums*

1. You either own or would like to own walnut oil.
2. Have you ever made your own sushi?
3. This may sound odd, but the colour that first springs to mind is the lovely translucent green of the water bottle in an icon of yours.
4. You got couth, lady. You host teaparties, drop in all round for visits, offer pie to the homeless and lurking, write some crazyhotporn and toofunnycomedy and heartwrenchingtears, and you do it all with grace, style, and finesse. You're always neatly turned out (I imagine in a teadress or crinoline - again, like in one of your icons), and polite to everyone, and you raise the tenor of fandom. Gosh darn it, ma'am, you're civilized.
5. Huh. I remember starting to recognize your name in comments all over the place, but I think I really registered you when you did a "meta" type post and it was the first time I'd bothered to go to anything but pure fic.
6. *pouts* You're right, these are hard! I think a Golden Retriever. They're friendly, welcoming, intelligent, intensely social, elegant animals - but with a goofy side. They'll throw themselves into anything with enthusiasm. And they like having their tummy scratched.
7. Do you have a favourite person to pair with Xander, and if so, who?

I would like to own walnut oil! I still haven't bought any. There weren't any recs that I could locate for brands, then other shiny recipes came along and distracted me. :D

I have made my own sushi, yis! A friend taught me one night, and we made it together a few times. Always maki (rolled sushi), though, which is plenty of fun itself. We did make some futomaki (making the omelet for that is a fun process) and tried a few different combiantions of vegetables, fish, other elements to create regular rolls, inside-out rolls, hand-held rolls, etc.

Couth, and civilized -- thtat's fine with me! Awww, I wish I had more lufferly tea dress/crinoline dresses. But I will aim for that. *aims*

I have too many favorite people to pair with Xander! *laughs* Well, it depends on mood, the type of story I feel interested in writing, if there's a request/assignment in the case of a 'thon or writing a story for someone. Sometimes my favorite person to pair Xander with is the one I'm pairing him with at the moment; while I'm writing a certain pairing I get very interested in the possibilities and other types of scenarios that could bring them together. Basically when I'm working on something, I focus a great deal of my enthusiasm in that direction.

So I have tons of defying-the-phrase's-meaning OTPs! Too many! Or maybe just enough? :D
