From Danae, a question and an answer (a nice rarity),
"Well to answer your question...I started the March question of the month
I think in 2007 in BDSM blogosphere. I saw a vanilla blog doing it and
no one in the BDSM blogs were doing it so I started it. It took off. I
haven't participated for several years, but hope next year to join back
in.
Questions for you for March Question Month: What is your favorite color? favorite food? favorite book? favorite toy?"
My favorite color is green. It matches my eyes, and having grown up in the woods, I find it to be...Comfortable.
Favorite food...
Hmmm...Oh...I can't decide...Generally speaking, my favorite foods tend to be those which I do not have to make myself. Dunno...There's a local restaurant that has a creole shrimp dish which I spend a fair amount of time fantasizing about...Then again...There's always chocolate...Or steak, steak is always good...
Favorite book. Omg, this one is going to kill me. I have to choose just one?? Um...It changes, I guess. I'm going to have to go with Outlander, by Diana Gabaldon. I read it a few years ago, and have yet to find a literary experience to overshadow it. Though technically, the whole series was awesome...
Favorite toy...See, it's questions like these which highlight my irritating bent towards indecisiveness.
My favorite toy is the knife. Any knife, really. The scarier the better though...Can't help it--damn thing melts me into a puddle of goo.
And just because Alpha insists that knives aren't toys, I suppose I should mention that I very much love to hate the hook. It's too much and I'll do my best to beg out of it...But it's good. Really good.
Thank you for the questions, and the answer!
Knives... shivers...
ReplyDeleteI've finally worked out that Outlander = Cross stitch - it has a different title in the UK.
Now, I feel ancient - I read it 20 years ago.... perhaps I need to refresh my memory and read it again!
DelFonte,
DeleteOoh, that whole different name thing confused me so much when I was looking for books in the series!
I don't think it's possible to read a book that good too many times...
I sent a copy of Outlander to a friend of mine for her birthday.
ReplyDeleteA day and a half after she got it, I got a phone call.
"Damn you! I haven't slept yet. And is there a support group for people who get hooked on this???"
It is a phenomenal read. (Altho' I have trouble picking between the first 3...)
Jz,
DeleteLmao! You're the crack dealer of the book world!
Hehe.
Ooo THAT hook ... so scarily fascinating!!!! I think I would be like you if the opportunity arises ... love to hate to love it! ;) (and I have had NO anal training at all!!!!) O.O
ReplyDeletegeekie kittie,
Deletethere is something terribly fascinating about it, I must agree...
OMG!! I love the whole Outlander series. Did you see that is going to be a series? I love to read so picking one book would be hard for me.
ReplyDeleteCreole shrimp - that sounds yummy!
danae,
DeleteOoh, I hadn't heard that. I have mixed feelings about such things--on one hand, it could be a totally awesome show I would be addicted to. On the other hand, wonderful books are so often slaughtered when they make the transition to tv.
I admit that I think about that shrimp rather a lot...
I mean did you see it is going to be a tv series? :)
ReplyDeleteI recently discovered Outlander because a friend convinced me to read it. Omg, where have I been! Such an amazing series!!!! I saw an interview with the author and she said that each book took her 18-24 months to write and I can see why. They are phenomenal!
ReplyDeleteSarah,
DeleteIt is quite addictive, isn't it?
She really takes her time with them and it shows in the quality of her writing.
Hi Lil, you had me at steak and chocolate lol. OK, I obviously need to read Outlander!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Roz
Roz,
DeleteOh yes--you don't know what you are missing!
I adore Outlander! I first read it 17 years ago and have re-read a few times now. So many friends I recommended it too though complained it was too long and they couldn't get into it, so I'm so glad to know there are others out there who enjoyed it too.
ReplyDeleteAurora,
Deletesometimes it's hard for me to find good books that will take more than a day to read. The length is one of the things I loved about all of the books in that series. I found that they were interesting enough, I didn't do any skimming in any of the books, which is kind of rare for me.
Yup - guess what my favorite color is.....
ReplyDeletegg,
DeleteBlue! :)
Sorry, couldn't help it--I make a regular practice of being wrong.
After reading this and comments, I'm thinking I need to read Outlander :)
ReplyDeleteMisty,
DeleteOoh, you don't know what you're missing!
Though, I'd advise catching up on the laundry and being prepared to make your kids eat ramen for a few days. Just sayin...
