Cerebral Soup - The Archives

tagged

KC from Earth-Bound Insight tagged me with these lists of 5 things. I fear however that my lists will be a tad disappointing. I only managed 5 things for two of the topics! Maybe they weren't the right ones. Possibly I needed ones like "5 recent brands of wine you've drunk" or "5 websites you've looked at" or something..... I guess I spend a lot more time online than anywhere else and when I have a chance to escape I usually reach for a book.

5 Musicians that I currently listen to:

- marshmallow spike

The Boy is currently rearranging and re-recording all the songs - and seeing as he is doing this in the apartment it's pretty impossible to escape from it

I usually don't listen to music while I work of late, just on the ol' iPod mini when I tearing around the neighbourhood trying to burn up calories. My playlist is heavy with Rancid, The Living End, Green Day and a dash of Blankey Jet City to get the bod moving.

5 Movies/DVDs That I Have Watched Recently

I have to confess that I haven't actually been to see a movie in a cinema yet this year. Also I don't tend to rent dvds often. So I have to look back into the mists of time....

- Finding Neverland
- About a Boy
- Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
- Kung Fu Hustle (as always)
- Pirates of the Caribbean (who can resist Johnny Depp in eyeliner?)

5 TV Shows That I Tend to Watch

OK on firmer ground here. I usually flick on the telly for background noise at night. Tuesday night is my favourite.

- London Hearts
- BuSma
- Zenigata Kintaro

I used to watch the house renovation shows pretty regularly too but now they only have specials for both Dream House and Before/After so if JMum doesn't tell me when they are I usually miss them.

5 Restaurants I have Visited Recently

I am no culinary genius, but I have to confess that I very rarely eat out or even take out. Seems to take more time and effort than throwing together something myself.

- HxM Brassierie (when all the troops came down during Golden Week)
- Gyukaku (family dinner - thankfully they have non-red meat choices)
- dodgy izakaya type place around the corner with a cabbage fetish (never going back - was pretty dreadful)

And I vaguely remember the Boy and I ordering pizza at some stage within the last month...

5 Foods That I Currently Enjoy Snacking On

I'm not a snacker really. I will occasionally nibble on some dried apricot or mango, but tend to see cheese and crackers as more of a meal than a snack. Sometimes I'll pinch a chip off the Boy if he's munching, but he tends to choose snacks that taste like sawdust. I do like senbe so I am careful not to buy them (because I will fang them down).

5 people to tag

Ok I know way more than 5 people who have a blog - but it was a bit tricky to choose who might be inclined to run with this...

(have no fear you are under no obligation to perform)
