OH! Adam 12. The dark haired EMT, that was my first crush. My heart skips a beat even now remembering how in love I was with him. Wonder if I saw a picture now what I'd think?

My parents lived in Beijing for 15 years, and every time they came home they were thrilled to get "real" Chinese food. Meaning the true local cuisine just didn't match up to thier Americanized favorites. :)

Kelly, I would love to know more about your parents living in Beijing.

I found the food in southern China (where my kids are from)to be more to my liking.

Little House was the best. Remember when you used to play Mary, I would play Laura, and Bekah would play Carrie.

I miss you too honey. But these blogs really help because I learn things about you I did not know about you and knots landing.
I love you and you are a successful mother and wife and daughter.

Lucy said...

I'm glad I tagged you too! And I love that I knew a lot of this stuff. I love knowing you.

Bridget said...

Love the white trim and wainscoating as well.

Great list! So nice you could watch Henry for awhile. It is nice to have a baby in the house (when it is someone else's).

Rebecca said...

I loved your list!

jethrojones said...

Actually, my favorite Schoolhouse Rock song is "Unpack Your Adjectives".

Lara said...

Great 3 list. Does Sean still qualify as a baby? You can have him any time you want (ha ha ha).

Michelle Alley said...

We bought the whole School house rock dvd set - our girls don't quite appreciate it yet. My husband is a huge Magnum PI fan, my favorite show as a kid was Buck Rogers and Battle Star Galactica - yes, I was a geek!

Great Post - Thanks for sharing!

I second the big white trim and wainscoating. I love your house! I can't say much about TV shows since I didn't grow up with a TV (mean parents). Love your threes!

I can remember gathering around the TV to watch Knots Landing together as a family.

But what I really remember is Falcon Crest. My dad would say, "There's Ronald Reagan's first wife" everytime Jane Wyman was on screen.

I never believed him because she seemed sooooooo old, and Ronald Reagan seemed sort of old but still young in a sort of cool grandpa way.

jenny said...

Ah yes Knots Landing and Greatest American Hero. I still can quote that theme song.

I didn't know you were a quilter. Or did I? Have you ever posted a quilt??
Thai curry double yum. I am a bit hungry. And I too share that love of white trim--so pretty.

Kristin said...

Great 3's! I love the picture of Lake Coeur D'Alene...so pretty!

I have never heard of Adam 12...I think I missed out.

I love white trim, Thai Yellow Curry, and Little House on the Prairie too!

P.S. I can't do a cartwheel either! Maybe we should go eat some curry and bond about it!! :)
