Yeah, this one was tough for me too. Much more involved than I thought it would be...Thanks for playing along! :)
Well your fear of airplanes is one shared by many. I love taking off, it is my favorite part - probably helps that I'm an airline employee.
And I'm impressed you can cook - one skill I have to start learning ASAP!
Sorry, yeah, I did this one a little while ago. Check this out, your 7 things you CAN do really are my CANNOT do's. .
Talk like Alvin, Simon, and Theodore no way can i do this
2. Math-u ARE kidding me right?
3. Cook, but not bake - ok, I can cook, but I can bake too.
4. Solve wrought-iron bar puzzles ha! no!
5. Fine arts (i.e., sculpting, painting, drawing)a great big NO!
6. Ice skate, but not rollerblade I CAN rollerblade (a little) but no likey ice skates, tried once, got not even a foot onto the ice and chickened out...I'm afraid of all things waterish.

3. My favorite ice cream flavor is vanilla bean-me too! oooh and cheesecake.
NYPC - No prob!
VG - I love cooking. It's one of the few things that I know I can do well.
ASAP? What, you running away?
Rowan - I'll find the sound link to the only way any American kid growing up in the 70's learned how to recite the Preamble. it starts off "We the people, in order to form a more perfect union, ..."
And I love horror books too. I just throw them under the category of sci-fi.
Vanilla bean ice cream? I thought for sure it was chocolate. The only way I know the preamble was by Schoolhouse Rock. When we had a test-the whole class was humming it. My teacher made a comment like, "I see everyone watches their Saturday Morning Cartoons!". I have to get them on DVD for the girls.
