[idgiehkt]

6. now you have to come over and cook me some sweet taters. :)

You made me hungry, it's all your fault. :)

I lurve the white ones the best. :hi:

(I don't say 'yams' I didn't know they were the same thing. :shrug: )

[wildhorses]

8. i am not sure if they are the same thing --

but, i have heard the term used interchangeably ...

hey, i did another soundtrack...(i am such a geek :P )

[idgiehkt]

9. awesome

I'm off to check it out. :)

Maybe I should do another one... I like mine though...I haven't gone 'oh shoot I should have used this song there' or whatever yet. It was a lot of fun, I wish more people would do them because they are interesting to read through. :hi:

[wildhorses]

10. yeah..i like reading them too.

i added links to this one...

i am not sure which one reflects my personal story the best :shrug:

[idgiehkt]

12. I'm starting to wonder if I need to do a bluegrass/country one

and then maybe a pre riot grrrl female musician one. I do not have any classic rock in mine at all, so maybe I need to do a classic rock one. And then I guess I could do a late 80's indie/alternative one, and then a grunge one. Hell I could just about do one on Pearl Jam alone. :) Hmmm....

I loved the country one that someone already did on that thread, it was great. It took me a couple of hours to do the one I did last night, and I have an awful headache tonight, so it probably isn't gonna happen any time soon. :hi:

16. It's a mystery to me

There must be some difference because my fruit stand has them in different bins at certain times of the year.
