But I’m going to do the This or That Tuesday summer potpurri anyway.
1. Strawberries or blueberries?
Both, please. They’re not in season at the same time anyway, and I only eat them in season – well, fresh that is, I do eat frozen/jam at other times. Once you’ve had strawberries in season (picked that same morning at a local farm) the imported ones you can buy in the supermarket taste like someone’s tried to “make” strawberries and haven’t quite succeeded because they’ve added too much water or something. If we’re talking flavour rather than the fresh fruit, I’d have to go with blueberries, though, I’m not very fond of strawberry-flavoured stuff.
2. “Legally Blonde 2” or “Terminator 3”?
Haven’t seen the prequels of either, so I don’t think I’ll see any of them just yet.
3. Hamburgers or hot dogs?
Home-grilled (or should I say home-burnt?) hot dogs.
4. Boating or hiking?
Boating. I like hiking too, but nothing beats boating.
5. Suntan lotion or sunblock?
Does it make any difference?
6. “Big Brother” or “The Amazing Race”?
Not Big Brother. What’s The Amazing Race?
7. Beach Boys or Jimmy Buffett?
The Beach Boys are cool, but who’s Jimmy Buffett?
8. Grow your own produce or buy from supermarket/greengrocer/farm stand?
The latter. Where would I grow produce? If I had a garden I’d probably try growing some vegetables, though – carrots at least.
9. Drive with car windows/top down, or with air-conditioning on?
Windows/top down. I don’t like air-conditioning, it feels all wrong.
10. Go away for vacation, or stay at home?
Been there, done that (gone away that is). Going away again in September.
Voice in my head: Avril Lavigne – “If I could say what I want to say, I’d say I want to blow you away, be with you every night, am I squeezing you too tight? If I could say what I want to see, I want to see you go down on one knee – Marry me today – I guess I’m wishing my life away”
