Tying up cherry stems
A few entries ago, I laughed about the absurdity of tying cherry stems up with your tongue. Then I go to
43 Things, and find people who want to master this tongue-tripping technique before they die. Evidently, I am very ignorant.
With the help of Google, I found some "how to tie a cherry stem with your tongue" articles in less than a minute. That's technology for you; everyone's so helpful.
Anyway, one needs a cherry first. (This is one of those 'duh' moments if ever I was in one.) You put the stem in your mouth, and...
here. It seems a waste of time and space to type out something already published on the internet. :)
People seem to prefer red maraschino cherries, which are the only kind of cherries we seem to get in my area. The first time I ever tasted an honest-to-goodness fresh cherry was about a year ago. How sad.
But I digress (as usual).
I'll not be tying up cherry stems anytime soon though; I can't seem to garner the effort. All I'm up to is eating the cherry.
Lazy, I know. :)

So I'm Daisy (or fedora_girl)
I'm (naturally) wearing the fedora.
I'm a Chemical Engineering student --- getting that degree sometimes involves putting my brain through a strainer --- who also enjoys living life and eating like every meal is my last meal.
I'm a child of God, and that gives my life meaning.
I adore my family and friends. We spend a lot of time together, so they occasionally come up in my posts.
I also take pictures, do computer work, and scribble. I use Adobe Photoshop for long periods of time, and design blogs. I submit most of my good photos and drawings in
my DeviantArt account, and my blog designs in
my Blogskins account.
I read a lot. My favorite books of all time are the Holy Bible,
Pride & Prejudice,
The Scarlet Pimpernel,
The Boy Who Could Fly,
The Nanny, &
Charlie & The Chocolate Factory.
I don't like watching TV because I feel it gives me wrong ideas about the real world. I'm partial to period dramas, musicals and other good movies though. A few that I like are
Pride & Prejudice (2005 version),
North & South (a BBC TV drama),
Facing The Giants,
Sixteen Candles, &
Singin' In The Rain.
I love music; I like a lot of genres. I'm getting into country music and some good rock at the moment. I also adore movie soundtracks and songs that are more than 60 years old.
And about this blog...
It's pretty much a personal thing. It's filled to the brim with my escapades, thoughts, stuff I make, and just plain observations. Random, really.
Hope you enjoy it!
