I've been tagged over at Jaye Robin Brown's "Hanging on to Wonder" blog, which means I must answer the following telltale (and impossible, Jaye! What were you thinking???) questions.

1. What is the best meal you've ever eaten - what, when, and where?
Oh my gosh, I've eaten some pretty scrumptious meals in my time. But, so far, hands down: Last year, in LA in The Grove, Ulysses Voyage. You have to do it Connie Srinivasan style, though, which is to tell the server that you will not be ordering. "Bring out plates to share--small or large plates, whatever you love best on the menu, one at a time until we tell you to stop." Paired with several rich and wonderful Greek reds, this meal that started with mouthwatering Saganaki (flaming cheese) and grilled octopus and ended with a gorgeous array of Greek desserts was the best I've ever had.

2. What is your earliest memory?
Oh, tough one! It's vague, but I remember a room--it was a church--dark and twisting--a wall that I wasn't supposed to go beyond. But I did. A corridor full of light. Splashed by mirrors reflecting stained glass windows, perhaps? Red cushions. Another room, darker still and a way that was not out but deeper. . . .

4. What is your favorite joke?
I recently I heard this terrible one on Twitter (via Shari B), and it's my favorite for the time being:
5. Pick three words to describe yourself (one is just too hard!)

Girl 1: "Someone told me you look like an owl."Girl 2: "Who?"

Are you kidding?? Three is too hard! But, I would have to say... Tenacious, Rebellious, Passionate.
And now to tag my own victims!

Honestly, I think you're allowed to change the questions up, but I adore Jaye's terribly impossible questions and would love to know your answers to them. So.

Tag! You're it!
Wow that restaurant experience sounds amazing! And I like your words. A lot.
ReplyDeleteThe question about your earliest memory is very smart. I am fascinated by those glimpses from the very beginning of my life..This blog tagging is a lot of fun :).
ReplyDeleteOh, my. I almost didn't get past the flaming cheese. It sounds wonderful.
