Ten to One Meme -- Day 5

Name SIX of your own acquired skills or personality traits of which you are proud. (Brag on yourself, dude! Own it!)


1. My prodigious vocabulary. I play Free Rice in the mid-50's.


2. The ability to cook without a recipe and alter and invent recipes for things that taste good.


3. The ability to read quickly, and remember a lot of it. ("Garbage-can memory")


4. Being able to sew things without the precise pattern I need. I’m not as good as those old-fashioned seamstresses who could measure you and cut all your clothes to fit, but I can get whatever sleeves/neckline/skirt I want.


5. My musical memory. I'm not a great musician, but if I've heard it, I probably remember it.


6. My test-taking knack

Good skills! I cannot sew. And I am musically impaired. I can't even clap along in church unless Matt taps my arm in time to the music.

Oh, thank you for reminding me about Free Rice, I forgot to play for a while.

And I envy your ability to sew; I aim to learn, so that I may learn to quilt.
