Glad you liked this!
Logzie - Narnia is a good one too! That book sounds good too. Does it exist or should you start writing it?
Kiki - Snorkelling - great idea!
Ali - I think that having 6 people in a crate is cheating, but I will let you get away with it, especially as I am suspecting (hoping) that the guy with the George Forman is me?
Terri - Waffles? Well I guess they are potatoes really! Snowboarding is hilarious! Maybe your island is in Alaska, or maybe you have got really big sand dunes that do the trick!
You're right! It IS you!
Oh that's funny, I didn't think you'd figure that.
Yes, I managed to put 2 and 2 together...
am confused about your comment on the book...
The Bible?
Sorry, I was referring to the 101 things to do with potatoes, which was your skill not your book!
I can see your concern!
Ah...I was thinking maybe you got it mixed up with the CD but even that didn't work...I didn't think about the Potatoes! Ha!!!! :0)
Better late than never...
1. The Color Purple
(a movie I could watch over and over)
2. U2... The Joshua Tree
3. Pringles (a close second is trail mix)
4. Diet Coke!!!
5. Harry Potter (any of the series...could read over and over and still get something new out of them)
6. futon... a couch for the day and a bed for the night (of course all of the sheets will come with it...)
7. A family photo... one that contains all the children, the hubby, the dog, my folks, rob's folks, etc.
8. oversize GAP sweatshirt (in the color yellow of course)
9. Developing my own film
10. I liked the idea of 6 friends, but since it's not a qualifying answer, I will have to say... everything you need to survive on a deserted island... boos, friends, etc:)
What a fun exercise! Thanks for that:)
