Tiffany A White tagged me in this fun game of Eleven Random Questions. Here are the Rules 1.Answer the questions set by the tagger. In my case, this would be Tiffany.

3.Share links to those eleven (12 for me) people in your blog and let them know you’ve tagged them
Do you prefer coffee or tea in the mornings? Barry’s tea, a delicious Irish brand every morning and throughout the day. I’m not a coffee drinker. Closest I ever come to the stuff is the odd Bailey’s coffee for dessert if I’m going out for dinner.
What book have you read over and over again? L.J. Smith’s The Forbidden Game trilogy. It’s a mix of fantasy, paranormal and romance and it’s both scary and fun, my favourite combination.
What’s your favourite outdoor activity? Does people-watching while sitting on a patio outside a pub count?
I’m second to the left
Do you cook and/or bake straight from the recipe, or do you get creative and throw things together in the kitchen? I just throw random ingredients into the pot and if in doubt add a lot of spices.
Where is your favourite place to visit in the United States? I haven’t visited New Orleans but it’s the one city in the entire US I am dying to get to, hopefully within the next 12 months. I’m going to Las Vegas next year for a friend’s 30th so I’m going to do my best to fly to Anne Rice land while I’m over.
Which animals must you see when visiting a zoo? The monkeys. They make me laugh.
What’s your favourite television show airing today? The Vampire Diaries. Vampires, witches, magic and mayhem, and pretty men. Enough said.

What’s your favourite television show of all time? Buffy. In case it’s not already clear, I love anything to do with vampires.
What’s your favourite movie of all time? Can’t pick just one. The Goonies, Stand by Me, Reality Bites, Dirty Dancing, Hocus Pocus and The Last of the Mohicans would be high up on the list.
What do you like to snack on when at the movie theater? Hot nuts. See picture just to be clear 🙂

Who is your current Hollywood or otherwise famous crush? Daniel Gillies who plays Elijah in The Vampire Diaries and Mark Foster from the band Foster the People of “Pumped Up Kicks” fame.
The lovely Daniel Gillies

How can you hate concerts though?
I should say … I enjoy the first half hour or so of a concert, and then, if it’s crowded and loud, I feel overwhelmed and want to go home. 🙂 It’s not that I’m a curmudgeon (not yet!), but I may be oversensitive and stressed by the noise and crowds.
Yeah the crowds can suck sometimes but I just love the excitement of seeing a band or singer you love live. Going to see Bruce Springsteen this summer and cannot wait!
I want Foster the People! Glad to know someone else likes them.
I love them. Torches is one of the best albums I’ve heard in years.

I desperately want chicken fingers right now!
Hope you got some last night Dalya. It’s the weekend, we’re allowed to eat whatever we want!

Ok so here we go:

Cheers to Buffy! Best show ever.

Hey, Emma, thought I would suggest a favorite Adult genre author I do really enjoy. It’s Paranormal Romance…She writes about the Carpathians(similar to Vampires:)…Dark Series… Anyway, have you heard of Christine Feehan? If not, try her she is awesome!
website:http://www.christinefeehan.com/dark_series/index.php
and favorite grown up show…(I love the Vampire Diares, yes…) but the adult version is True Blood…http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0844441/
If you heard of this, then great:) and so, I just wanted to put in my all grown of likes as well!
Hi Michelle.
Thanks for the author recommendation. I hadn’t heard her but looked up the books now and they seem right up my alley so cheers.
As for True Blood, I got hooked on this show four years ago. I didn’t think the last series was great but I’m looking forward to seeing what Sookie and friends are up to in season 5 which should be really soon.
Thanks for these Grown Up ideas 🙂
Ok Emma, you won, I got the message, “read The Forbidden Game trilogy”! Now, I can’t guarantee I’m going to do it soon but I will, promise! 🙂

The Hunger Games (last month on my birthday)
7. What Is Your Favourite Food?
Lasagna!

I’m a Brunette so… 😉

Aw Silvia, you’re very good for playing. Now I feel under pressure for you to like those books 🙂
What a cool degree. When you decide to go to Dublin let me know, it’s only a 3 hour train journey away from me. Woo hoo, Buffy is doing very well in this game. Can’t believe about Bruce!! I’m so jealous. And I too judge a book by its cover 🙂
Thanks for answering Silvia. This is a great way to get to know other bloggers.

And if I go to Dublin I will surely let you know! 😉

What is the Best Concert You Have Ever Attended? Simon & Garfunkel’s Old Friends tour was amazing because their music feels like the soundtrack of my life. Hearing it live was like being reborn.

Thanks for letting me play!!!! Sorry it took me so long, the end of the semester has me buried in final essays and evaluations!
Hi Lori. Guinness ice-cream? Seriously, now I have to go back to Dingle 🙂
I think lots of us, rightly or wrongly judge a book by its cover.
I too bought the soundtrack to Wayne’s World many years ago so you’ll hear no judgement from me!
Good luck with your studies and exams and cheers for playing.
