TMPAE* is always my little ray of sunshine:

Yes -- she, too has inherited the curly hair gene. It's those big brown eyes, though, that have us all a bit freaked out, as there are no brown eyes on either the Princess Mom's or Dearly Departed Dad's sides of the family. If you met Sainted SIL's dad, though, you'd see exactly where they came from. Still, it's disconcerting. (Click the photo to embiggen to get the full effect of those beautiful peepers!)

LL started me off on these Blogthings again. I'd post the first two here, but to be quite honest, she and I scored exactly the same.

Then, of course, I was off and running:

You Are Merlot

Smooth, confident, and popular - you're the type most likely to order wine for the whole group. You seem to breeze through life on your intuition and wit. And no one seems to mind! You're comfortable in any social situation you find yourself in, and you never feel outclassed. And while you live a charmed life, you never let it go to your head. You are truly down to earth and a great friend. Deep down you are: Balanced and mature Your partying style: Surprisingly wild... when you let loose, you really let loose Your company is enjoyed best with: Some greasy pizza

What Kind of Wine Are You?

You can never go wrong with a good red wine!
