My family has a cordless phone. When we are out in the yard doing yard work we bring it outside with us and leave it on the porch if we think we might be missing important calls. Otherwise, we have...
I don't like the western theme period, so luckily I will never have to face this conundrum! Hooray!
I actually live in the "West" anyway, well, Northern BC, so dead animals on walls, e...
We had two: an encyclopedic dictionary, and then a "kids dictionary" with colour pictures and easy language. They both got a LOT of love from my brother and I. :) I'm a history grad, and he's going...
I don't have to ask guests to take off their shoes because I, like many others here, am Canadian. It's a non-issue because it's just not done.

Actually, one of my favourites is in the pic! "Never Let me Go" by Kazuo Ishiguro. :) Although I have the sombre literary cover with the fishing boat on it.
I have a (not so) secret a...
I'm from New Brunswick.
Nothing says home to me like my Mother's split pea and ham soup, thick and hot and filling.
Close second: my English dad's beef stew with tomatoes...
I'm Canadian, AND I live in the North where if it isn't snow, it's mud. It's pretty much a given here that you take your shoes off in a person's house, as a guest. The host doesn't have to ask. You...
