Olivia is an Aussie

My random collection - rupert annuals.

my question: do you like movies about gladiators?

Whoops! I didn't post a random interest really- I collect (and have for 40 years) antique and vintage Blue Willow china.

Actually, she's not. She's English.

Wiki:

Olivia Newton-John was born in Cambridge, England, to a Welsh father, Brinley ("Bryn") Newton-John, and a German-born mother, Irene Born, the eldest child of the Nobel prize-winning atomic physicist Max Born. Her mother's family had left Germany before World War II to avoid the Nazi regime (Newton-John's maternal grandfather was Jewish, and her maternal grandmother was of paternal Jewish ancestry).[4] Her maternal great-grandfather was jurist Victor Ehrenberg and her matrilineal great-grandmother's father was German jurist Rudolf von Jhering. Newton-John is the youngest of three children, following brother Hugh, a doctor, and sister Rona, an actress once married to Grease co-star Jeff Conaway. Newton-John's father was an MI.5 officer on the Enigma project at Bletchley Park who took Rudolf Hess into custody during World War II.[5] In 1954 Newton-John's family emigrated to Melbourne, Australia, where her father worked as a professor of German and as Master of Ormond College at the University of Melbourne.[6]

I stand corrected.

There is something about the anticipation of such an event as the opera or a musical - learning that is coming to your area - the ticket buying - the planning of attire, and on and on. Sometimes the preparation and anticipation really rivals the actual event, yes?

I loveeeeeeeeeeee House Hunters International! I DVR it when I can.

Anticipation does rock!

Cookies? anything with no peanuts....total fav. Shortbread biscuits from M&S.

Inside jokes with just me....I have a Super 8 ball on my desk at work and when people ask me dumb questions like how long my boss is going to be on the phone....I hand them the 8 ball. :)

Cool thread--

I am not much of a chocolate fan, but there isn't a type of cake or cookie that I'd refuse except dark chocolate. At the moment, I could go for something lemon. Lemon cake with coconut icing, and lemon cooler cookies. Ummmm.....

Leo, oldest of three, only girl. Not bossy, but I typically get my way. :) Only one to move more than an hour from home. Now I wish I were closer!

Love Indian food most of all, but any ethic cuisine holds my interest.
