QOTD 3/3

[sugarkissed]

I don't eat the ends of my french fries. I don't know why, it's something that I've always done without really realizing it. I'll take a bite or two, and then leave the crispy end on the plate. I've probably saved a lot of calories over the years! Haha.

I didn't know this about myself until I went on a month long European Vaca with my best friend and my brother. She was watching both of us eat and said..."do you guys realize that you eat one item on your plate and then go to the next item? Never mixing foods or taking a bite of one and the a bite of another?" Who knew...But I like to eat my salad, then eat my entre and then my sides. Never mixing them.

I'm an extremely picky eater. To the point where I kind of dread going over to other people's houses for dinner unless I know them super well and they understand my weird restrictions.

Me too and I hate it. I wish I liked more foods. I am the kind of person that doesn't want any attention brought to it though...you cook what you want; I can survive on bread and water.

Yes that's me too! Or I'll push food around on my plate to make it look like I've eaten. So embarrassing. 

Edit to add: the first time I had Thanksgiving at DH's family's house, I literally had this huge china plate with one bread roll on it and that's it.  Their food was much different than my family's and I couldn't even find any sides I liked.

I had this problem but it was more because my family had traditional Thanksgiving foods but in a healthy way and my inlaws had like marshmallow "salad" and everything had cream of mushroom soup.  Gross.  Where was the green salad and green beans and Im not talking about green beans with that onion sh*t on the top.  This is what happens when west coast meats midwest.

I sing along with the radio (or my head) all the flipping time. I don't even realize I'm doing it half the time until someone tells me to stop.

All the picky eaters are making me sad. I LOVE to try new foods. (Except I am a bit picky if it is foreign and not European. My mom tried fried grasshoppers or something like that when she visited Thailand, and I almost puked just thinking about her doing it. She's a brave lady!)

I love cream of mushroom soup! But I don't like marshmallows in my salad. I make an awesome ambrosia salad with fruit and coconut, and when someone makes one with marshmallows, I'm just like "why?"

I don't tie any of my shoes, boots, etc. I always knot the laces and slide my feet in.

I check to make sure things like doors are locked and the hair straightener is unplugged too many times. As in, I will check to make sure the outside doors are locked and come back 5 minutes later to check them again because I feel like I missed one. I do this all the time.

I do this too! Usually I'll be lying in bed and convince myself that I forgot to lock the door and then have to go all the way downstairs to check. I've yet to find it unlocked.

I never knew I did this until my H pointed it out. But I guess I hold my knife and fork in the wrong hand for a right handed person. I hold my knife in my right hand and my fork in my left hand and then instead of putting the knife down and moving the fork over to my right hand I just use my left hand to work the fork. My sister does the exact same thing. I blame my mother for teaching us this way since she is left handed. (Or else H is the freak here for switching/using his fork in his right hand)

I think this is the British way to do it? I find myself doing it sometimes.

It is called "Continental Style", used in many countries. I do it when I'm at a formal dinner.

I finally thought of one. I don't answer my phone if I don't recognize the number. If they doint leave a voicemail then they aren't worth talking to.

I do this too!

I'm a broken record. I repeat things to my hubby 3-4 times and he will say, You already said that, but then I don't remember half the time I just said it.
