My favourite TV programme is Biography.

Favourite dessert is a strawberry sundae, lots of real strawberries and sauce. mmmmm good.

Favourite colour is a deep royal blue.

Favourite saying is "what goes around, comes around"

My favourite place is hmm, I think my own back yard. It is very small and cozy, Barry has a fence of yellow roses that are beginning to show life after our dreary, very cold winter. We also have a very tall pine tree and past all this is his garden full of vegetables, flowers and trees we have planted. It is just the best place to be.

Favorite TV Program: I don't have much time for TV but if I watch one show a week it is CSI.

Favorite Dessert: Yummy cheescake with fruit toping

Favorite Color: This is hard because I love color, I like to surround myself with happy Spring and Summer colors, yellow, pink, blue, green. I love to wear lavendar or fushia.

Favorite Saying: Anything is possible! You can if you think you can!

Favorite place: Anywhere in the mountains. I love being up in the trees and lakes with the quiet and fresh air. I love our family camping trips to the California Sierra Mountains. Its great being away from phones, faxes, pagers, computers etc.!

I'm partial to the Law & Order series. Judging Amy,CSI (original)
NYPD Blue (see a theme here ??? and yes I do read mysteries and police procedurals) I LOVE Midsomer Murders on A&E.

I'll eat just about anything chocolate. ( as long as theres no bananas or strawberries involved) Brownies with pecans and chocolate chips are THE BEST. (throw a little vanilla ice cream on'em......to die for)

I love BRIGHT colors. But I have to say I'm partial to red. I wear it a lot. My house is done in red/green (oriental NOT christmas:whacky: ) black and white. The neighbors all marvel at my house...it's so different.:bg:

I you had a brain you'd be dangerous !!! :wink:

San Francisco....I grew up near there and I miss it (living in FL it's a bit far away) I loved walking the streets, smelling all the smells, walking the hills, seeing EVERYONE doing 'whatever', wherever.

I like Carol Duvall, Sandford and Son, Saturday Night Live (the old ones with Chevy Chase and Gilda Radner, and the rest)

Mississippi Mud Pie, the kind I make is to die for.

Maroon or Forest Green and Kakki together.

Every Dog Has His Day and You're going to get yours and I won't have to life a finger.

In the summer, In a swimming pool, in the winter, cozied up by a fire with my honey, in the spring and fall, under a hugh oak tree in a hammock feeling the cool fresh air of the evening on my skin.

Hmmmm... I don't really have a favorite tv program since I rarely have control of the remote in this house.:nervous:

favorite dessert?chocolate covered strawberries

favorite color? I like light blues and light greens mostly. It's hard to choose a favorite when you love fabric.:whacky:

Favorite saying? "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
Also like "curiosity killed the cat":bg:

To visit? I love the beach, but just for a few days. My favorite place to be is home.

Hey, Bama, you either get control of that TV remote or I will send you a TV of your own, which one is it going to be – do let me know!

What is your favourite TV programme?
I love science fiction of any kind and fantasy, as it is very close to SF these days; love history shows; comedy when the mood takes me. I’ve never had time for TV before (I am a bookworm, love reading!), but now I make time for it, as I love doing my new virtual Jigsaw puzzles on my PC (very relaxing) and watch something… I LOVE Will and Grace and Everybody Loves Raymond and Frasier.

What is favourite dessert in the whole world?
Anything with berries, just love them. Cream and custard (in anything) are irresistible!

What is your favourite colour?
Red and also cream, but I wear a lot of black at work. But to look at, I like anything floral, autumn, winter snowflakes.

What is your favourite saying?
As long as you live, you learn! - through personal experience.

What is your favourite place?
The world in my previous life, I wanted to travel around the world and did.
Now, I prefer to stay at home – it is my favourite spot. I have my office, which is the sewing room, dressing room etc – just my room, I love it, I spend a lot of time here.
There is a desk with a PC, another desk with my sewing machine and overlocker (oops, serger) and a great big wardrobe, where I hide all my sins (sewing ones, that is).

A TV of my own would be nice, but I would have to put it in the sewing room to keep everyone else from watching it. :nervous: At least I can go in the sewing room and sew whenever I don't want to watch what everyone else is watching. :bluesmile

Hey Bama I had the same problem but not no more. WalMart has the perfect size Tv for your sewing room. It's a 13 in color set for 68.00. I got one for my sewing room and hooked up the cable to it and now my hubby never ever sees me anymore. LOL We're both happy now.

Susie, that's a nice thought. I've been looking for ONE comfy chair for my sewing room (So there's only room for me. It's soooo nice to have a place for just me now.) A small tv to go along with it would be nice.
My dd still manages to drag a quilt into the floor in there and reads sometimes while I sew. It's okay though, if it's just us girls. No men allowed.:bluewink:

I have my TV in my sewing room and it’s great.
I also have an office chair, with wheels on it, so I can do ‘wheelies’ between my PC table, my sewing table and the ironing board. Office chairs are very comfortable, you can adjust their height, angle and lots more, it has arm rests, padded and is covered with soft material, very comfy. Also, there are office furniture sales if you don’t want to spend the money on a new one. I could not live without mine. :bg:

My son got me an office chair for Christmas for the computer desk, but I swapped it with my old sewing chair. Now it's in the sewing room. :bg:
Now I want a big fluffy chair with an ottoman and a tall lamp behind it for reading and hand sewing. If I get a TV too, I may never come out.:bluewink:

I thought about getting a futon so we'd have an extra bed for company, but I really want a chair and ottoman.:nc:
