Not my favorites!

Everyone does a list of favorites. I've decided to be different.

Least Favorites:
  • Book: The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne--I would rather be beaten with it than ever read it again.
  • Movie: Sorcerer. My husband and I saw this when we were dating (1977). Trucks, mountainous terrain, and nitroglycerin. I kept hoping everything would blow up.
  • Food: fish or liver, take your pick. Both make me want to hurl.
  • Color: Aqua, the predominant color of my childhood, in the 60s. Everything in the kitchen was aqua, even our counter top. Yuck, yuck, yuck.
  • Thing to do: Clean. I'm defeated by a mess. Overwhelmed doesn't begin to describe how I feel about my house.
  • Gift: Anything from a particular sister-in-law. We draw names and the number of times she's gotten my name is uncanny. She has a knack for slights and insults, even through the guise of a gift.
  • Genre: For books, romance. For movies, horror flicks.
  • Dessert: Pumpkin pie. It just tastes bad and no amount of whipped cream can save it.
  • Candy: Licorice--so vile it's hard to believe it's a candy.
  • Soda: Root beer or Dr. Pepper. They taste the same to me. Bad.
  • Magazine: Consumer Reports. Geez, how boring can you get?
  • Thing about myself: My weight. Or my big feet.
  • Favorite child: I'm not that mean. I don't have a favorite, either. I love them all.
