My ancestry has me linked to Charlemagne and Kings Duncan and Malcolm of Scotland - the kings from "that Scottish play". But another, unexplored DNA line might lead in directions environs Persia. Hence, ? I'll take Freddie.

2. Which would you prefer? An old, restored Victorian- or-earlier-era house OR a new, modern, ergonomically-designed eco-house?
That Victorian had better have wavy-glass windows, updated heating, a dry basement, cook's kitchen and central air.

3. Do you like licorice? What kind? What about salty (dubbel-zout) Dutch licorice?
Sweet licorice - schoolkrijt - and allsorts are lovely - no salt or ammonia though.

4. What would you prefer - a bike ride OR a snowshoe trek?
A bike ride in good weather is pleasant, but I have the shoes for stomping around.

5. Do you press flowers? Leaves? Clovers?

3. Do you like licorice? What kind? What about salty (dubbel-zout) Dutch licorice? I find it kinda disgusting.

4. What would you prefer - a bike ride OR a snowshoe trek? Bike ride. Never used snowshoes, although I have done cross-country skiing.

5. Do you press flowers? Leaves? Clovers? Not since I was in high school!

6. Do you feed birds in winter? Squirrels? Raccoons? I'm planning to this winter.... I already have the goods! I suspect the raccoons are chowing down on the cat food I leave out for the kitties.

7. Have you decorated for autumn? Hallowe'en? Do you decorate for Christmas? I haven't decorated for Halloween in a while, but I always, always decorate for Christmas!8. Please describe the burrito of your dreams - my apologies if I've ( ... )
