The sandwich quiz

I borrowed this from VB. Have to say, it amused me greatly!

You Are a Ham Sandwich

You are quiet, understated, and a great comfort to all of your friends. Over time, you have proven yourself as loyal and steadfast. And you are by no means boring. You do well in any situation - from fancy to laid back. Your best friend: The Turkey Sandwich Your mortal enemy: The Grilled Cheese Sandwich

What Kind of Sandwich Are You?

Bookish meme

Snagged from DebD.

1. What book have you read in the last six months that has really stayed with you? Why?

Probably The Book Thief for the writing and the story, although the "Thief" series has turned out to be ones I'm re-reading obsessively.

2. What is one of your favorite childhood books?

One???? Okay, picking randomly, Anne of Green Gables.

3. Do you have a favorite book of the Bible? Do tell!

Psalms. Although I have this odd fondness for Joshua. It's so exciting!

4. What is one book you could read again and again?

Again, ONE????? I'm a compulsive re-reader. There are so few books I've only read once. I read The Blue Sword about ten times between 7th and 8th grade. The Lantern Bearers. The "Thief" series. Gaudy Night. The Lord of the Rings.

5. Is there a book you would suggest for Lenten reading? What is it and why?

Mmmm. This one's hard because there are so many good ones out there. I'd say Spiritual Counsels by St. John of Kronstadt is a great one because it addresses so many areas of the spiritual life.

And because we all love bonus questions, if you were going to publish a book what would it be? Who would you want to write the jacket cover blurb expounding on your talent?

Um. Something fictional. Probably a novel. I don't know who I'd want to write the blurb...an author whose work I enjoy and respect.

Thankfulness

Molly tagged me for this meme, so I guess I'd better do it. I actually didn't even notice that she'd tagged me until now, and unless I finish it I'll forget. So here goes:

5 Things I’m Thankful For Meme:

1. Write down five things that you’re thankful for.
2. Tag five friends who you’d like to see participate in this meme.
3. (Optional) Include a link to this post and encourage others to place a link to their completed meme in the comments section of this post so we can keep track of the thankfulness running around the blogosphere.

I am thankful for:

1. My parents. You may all say, "Aw, how sweet" if you wish. It's true. They gave me so much that I cannot even imagine life without. I mean, Orthodoxy, homeschooling, writing...man the list just keeps going on and on.

2. Books. No, seriously, this isn't a frivolous one. I should just make a collection of all the wonderful quotes about books there are out there. But here's one of my recent favorites, from a movie version of Arabian Nights: "Stories tell us how to live and why." And that's so true. There is a reason I am an English major. Books are so much a part of my life, it's slightly ridiculous. As you can probably tell, if you spend any time around this place.

3. God. Well, maybe this should have gone first. I mean, yes it should. It's first in importance. But I'm typing these as I'm thinking about them, and so often we start with the mundane (not that my parents are mundane, but you know what I mean) and move up. I don't have a conversion experience, or a time when I accepted God into my heart. He's just always been there. And now I work at deepening and strengthening my relationship with Him, growing and learning ways to serve Him. But I hope and pray that it will always be there.

4. Chocolate. Okay, this one is frivolous. But I am also thankful for it. Dark chocolate, of any sort...so amazing. I'm done.

5. Hmmmm.....I guess this one would really have to be friends. I don't know how I would make it all on my own! So many times my friends have given me the encouragement and guidance I've needed desperately. Thank you all.

And I'm never sure who's reading this exactly, so if you'd like to, you're tagged!

Quiz!

Stolen from Katie.

In what time era do you belong?

You are in the Victorian Age. And what a beautiful age it is! You want an age away from the one we live in right now. You want to live in a place where there is beauty and well mannered people. A place where the family and friends are indeed very important. A place filled with fashion. The Vicotrian age is perfect for you, it has all of that plus the added bonus of horse drawn carriages.
