What Comfort Food Are You?

You Are Chocolate

When you’re stressed out, you crave intense pleasure. And you’re willing to skip a proper meal and proceed directly to the food you like best.You find solace in hedonism and luxury. You tend to turn your nose up at most traditional comfort foods. Somewhat surprisingly, trying a new food (especially a new type of chocolate) can be the most comforting thing for you.

BBC Quiz of the Week

LAST Week:-  A major cold front from the Indian Ocean has hit Perth with gales, squalls, lightning , thunder (at 3am of course) rain and even some hail. Needless to say, there has been no paddling on a now swollen Swan River this week. Now in its fourth day, the storm is finally easing after dumping around 3 inches of rain.

I expect another in around two weeks 

Hats and Crowns:- The great hat drought of 2013 has broken with DaisyFae, hmh and I all scorng 2/7!

THIS Week. I have been unable to improve and have guessed my way to 2/7.  Just how well will you go with this week’s quiz?

Are You Stuck in a Rut?

This is nice to know. Even if it is largely wish fulfillment!

You Are Not in a Rut

You are the type of person who is always shaking things up. You never find yourself in a rut.You cannot fathom doing the same thing all the time. Habits and routines make you feel stifled. You are a bit addicted to novelty and variety, but that is actually a good thing. You have a wide point of view.You have many sources of inspiration, and you rarely feel like your creativity well is dry. Not only are you good at not being in a rut, you are good at keeping others out of them. You know just what sort of shaking up people need. You encourage friends and family to live life to the fullest. No one can be in too much of a rut if they hang out with you.

BBC Quiz of the Week

LAST Week:- I’m at that age where health checks are reluctantly accepted. I have had my annual week of Doctor’s visits and tests of various kinds. All seems well at the moment but I have another set, on different parts of the body, next week. Grumble Grumble!

Yesterday was a major production away from the surgeries. It was Anzac Day and I began it at 3am to be in time for the Dawn Service then went to a football match in the evening. Trying to return home, by train, I was trapped at Perth Central because there had been a train/car “incident right next to mt destination. No-one was hurt but I didn’t get home until much later than I expected. The yawns were well and truly in by the time I ended the day.

Hats and Crowns:- Everyone was clever last week and so no hats were awarded. hmh almost won a crown with her 6/7.

THIS Week. After beginning with 0/3 I stormed to 4/7 so I feel good about that. If only three of those answers had not been guesses! So what will you score this week?

BBC Quiz of the Week

LAST Week:- Went to the Football last week. My side lost *sob*. So I did some kayaking *surprise surprise* and had encounters with even more dolphins. It is interesting that there are less than two dozen dolphins in the Swan/Canning river and I have met around eleven of them in the past couple of weeks. The weather has been unseasonably hot this past week with record temperatures up near the 100F (36C) mark deep into Autumn!

Hats and Crowns:- No one earned a hat last week. Rob and I had the lowest score of 3/7 and hmh and Buff each scored 6/7, nearly earning a crown.

THIS Week. I flunked this week and luckily scored two from the last three questions. So I’m in line for a Hat! How will you go this week?
