Cherry Pie

Posted by myjaxon On September - 24 - 2008 ADD COMMENTS

I love finding these types of quizzes…

You Are Cherry Pie
You’re the perfect combo of innocent and sexy.
At times, you seem a bit naive, simple, and innocent.
But at second glance, you are sensual, seductive, and even a little naughty.
You have people fooled - at least you’d like to think so.

Those who like you enjoy a contradiction.
Either that, or they can’t really make up their minds about what they want.
And you can usually give people what they want… as long as you’re in the mood.
You’ve been known to be quite tempestuous, and pleasing others is not high on your list of priorities.

You Are a Chocolate Chip Cookie

So I found this cookie quiz and I’m not really sure if I agree with the end result.

Traditional and conservative, most people find you comforting.
You’re friendly and easy to get to know. This makes you very popular - without even trying!

I wouldn’t say that I’m popular, I really don’t make friends all that easy. But of all the cookies to be, I like chocolate chip.

Vampire Names

Posted by myjaxon On August - 29 - 2008 ADD COMMENTS

Ever wondered what your vampire name would be? Now you can find out. There’s a simple generator that will give you what you would be immortally known as. Here’s my name:

The Great Archives determine you to have gone by the identity:
Empress of Scandinavia
Known in some parts of the world as:
Mother of The Steely Moon
The Great Archives Record:
A child of the Moon Goddess - Cold, determined, but of the light in the night.

Kind of interesting, but it’s not really a name to me but I could be called an empress. So what is everyone else’s name?

And just because I’m curious, let’s see who I’m married to…

The Great Archives determine you to have gone by the identity:
Emperor of Scandinavia
Known in some parts of the world as:
Father of The Steely Moon
The Great Archives Record:
A child of the Moon Goddess - Cold, determined, but of the light in the night.

And the anwer is?

About Me

I am a stay at home mom with my first child, sometimes wondering what I have gotten myself into. I have an amazingly supportive husband, who is also a computer geek with a slight anti-social complex.

I love books, but if you want to know more, check out Literary Escapism. I'm also beginning a new venture as a Pampered Chef Consultant. I love to cook and it's a great way to supplement our income while still staying home with Ian.
