    1. It'll be swiftly followed with a phase of chocolate!
      Some of your questions really made me think... I'm a bit disappointed that I couldn't think of one surprising skill though... I'm still pondering on it :)

  5. Love your answers! Bali is lovely (having lived there!) although I saw less of the tourist side and experienced the difficulties of time management (Jam karet it is called there!!!!). II detest mushrooms so glad you partially share my dislike (am always willing to embark in anti-mushroom propoganda!) I put Alysson Hannigan (couldn't remember her name!) as my celebrity person also!
