You know me. I don't tag people. If you're inclined to participate in the meme, please do so and leave a comment here so we can all visit and read your answers.
ETA: Paperback Writer - S.L. Viehl - got tagged this morning for this, too. So we're not alone.
Update: My very good friend and also wonderfully talented writer, Alexia Adams has her meme up, and a new visitor to my blog - Susan Flemming also has her answers up. (But I can't claim responsibility for the last one. Darn it.) Way to go Alex, and Welcome Susan! =oD

Oh, lilacs! I love lilacs. Thanks for playing! (And kitten toes are just what they sound like...my kitty-cats' toes. I just love to bite 'em.)
Mmmm... Your four foods make me so hungry!!! =)
What-do-you-know. I'm reading Jane Eyre again as well.
OT: Do you know they are now selling "Cliffs Notes" movies? They package an older movie version of something like Jane Eyre or Moby Dick with the Cliffs Notes for the story. Just read the stinking book already! (That said, I did pick up the one for Jane Eyre because it was both inexpensive and a version that I like).
Oh, and if you still need some reading help, I can do that.
LOL Kristen. If I nibbled on my kitty's toes, I'd get a claw through my lip. She doesn't mind if I blow raspberries into her belly fur, though.
If you're ever in St. Louis, Erica, Mike Shannon's restaurant was where I got the caramel-apple upside-down pie. I asked for the recipe, but the chef wouldn't part with it.
I'm not currently reading Jane Eyre again, Jan. I've just read it. This morning, I was between books, but I just picked up a couple at the library that I've been waiting for. I'll take you up on the reading help. You'll see it in your in-box shortly. =oD
Very cool! And now I'm hungry :D
The question you added is very close to the question I added. Mine was... Four Most Vivid Memories
Funny ... I have a sudden desire to read Jane Eyre again and I'm also STARVED!
Brought back childhood memories for me..... lilacs and picking blueberries :-)
