Unlike William, I am ready and willing to offend. ;)
My list is as follows:
- Movies from the 80′s (see: Goonies, Spaceballs, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off)
- Goat cheese
- Bob Seger
- the color red
- books by Zadie Smith
- yogurt (yes, even frozen)
- Manhattan (too many bad experiences – this has nothing to do with the lovely people I know who live there, and love it)

I think O Brother Where Art Thou is the ONLY movie I have ever turned off and never gone back to…about 20 minutes into it.
Please tell me you like to drink water. :-)
I’m not a fan of the Star Wars movies or Harry Potter books. I can appreciate them I guess, but they just aren’t my cup of tea. Also, The Office.
I may have to do a similar post…

We’re “supposed” to like Def Leopard? This I did not know.
I don’t like corn, cantaloupe, BBQ sauce, soup, Star Wars, March Madness, karaoke, or American Idol.

I don’t like Casablanca either, or goat cheese. I also don’t like mushrooms.

The only thing on your list that upsets me is “Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?”…one of my favorite movies. I’ll refrain from poking you about it relentlessly, however, because I do hate that.
I can’t even come up with a list right now. I’m too busy wondering about yours. LOL. You don’t eat pie, then?

Oh! Number one thing on my list of things I hate that I’m supposed to like:
IKEA.
Don’t get me started.

Cooked fruit! Finally someone who understands. I’m a bona fide fat girl who doesn’t like 99.9% of pie. No cooked fruit, no pie crust. Grandmother’s graham cracker crust lemon meringue only, which I last had… um… 2+ years ago.
It blows most people’s minds.

I’ve been a lurker for about two years now, but I haven’t stopped by in about half that. I am THRILLED to see how gorgeous a small person Willow is turning out to be. You and your husband should write books on how to produce stunning children. It’s also lovely to see there’s someone out there who considers animals to be so deserving of camera time. And your photography is pristine, warm, and encouraging.
I’ll leave two items for my own “Supposed” To list, but I warn you, they’re controversial and no one ever likes to hear them.
Potatoes.

I accidentally just called your daughter “Willow” when I’m ashamed to realize her name is the much lovelier Willa. My apologies.
I’m blushing profusely.

Hi! This is great time of confession :)
I would have to say…
Movies: Love Actually, Fight Club, Breakfast at Tiffany’s
Food: Honey, Olives, Coffee (although I’ll drink it. Like medicine), Onions
Books: Harry Potter, To Kill a Mockingbird, Tom Sawyer/Huck Finn
Music: U2, Muse, Coldplay
I think this is ok though, right? Makes us all unique people with varied interests… or something.
