    Does Anyone Else Have Generally Annoying Or Weird Food Allergies? Share Here!

    ;) Hawaiian pizza is neat! Though that's not the only pizza which has pineapples in it. Actually, you can put any toppings you want on your pizza if you're baking it at home. Try some experimenting with stuff like this!

    Expand your Music tastes

    I'm heavily into jazz. Here's one of my favorite albums from that era. I am also fond of Dave Brubeck, Miles Davis, and Chet Baker. I guess because of these guys I got myself a drum kit like this to practice some jazzy licks. Maybe one day I'll become a part of a band, who knows.

    What helps you calm down / relax?

    When I was younger I played videogames or watched movies. But now I would prefer to sleep or watch my small garden grow. It's really relaxing. My father has an aquarium for this but I prefer something even less needing care like plants that's why I have a grow tent like this in my garage. Though...

    what's your skin care routine?

    I use mostly skin moisturizers and lip balms (mostly in winter). I rarely use anything else maybe because but I visit spa twice per month, I don't remember all the products they use there. I also use avocado shampoo and homemade coconut oil masks both for skin and my hair because of my skin...

    how do you feel about bugs?

    My friend studies entomology and he says that each bug is important, even roaches and carpet beetles you mentioned! Though I don't like them as well and rather prefer to read roach control tips instead of having these bugs at my kitchen ... I doubt somebody loves these actually maybe except...

    Woodworking

    Same here. I had a woodworking class too and I was very afraid to use machines. But since my dad got a decent track saw like this I'm now okay with that. I managed to make some wooden shelves and other stuff in my house. Ouch. But if you're dealing with wood and saw you should be extra...

    Do you enjoy hiking/road-tripping? What's your favorite place to visit?

    Oh, I visited Panther Falls once when I had a family ATV trip across the country. It was gorgeous! Despite that, the preparations just as mentioned here and the road there was surprisingly tough. I wish to visit it again one day. I love road hiking. I think there isn't an inch of the local...

    What food are you craving?

    Nothing tastes like a good homemade cheese or pepperoni pizza which I usually cook in my pizza oven like this. I mean, lots of veggies and extra cheese can fix any pizza. And my mood.

    Brushing your teeth in the shower?

    Haha, nice. I think that's more efficient too, though I rarely do that. I must confess that sometimes early in the morning I can brush my teeth while sitting on the toilet... Just my house is in the middle of the renovation, we managed to install one of these dual flush toilets first of all...

    How do you eat your pizza?

    I like every part of the pizza, but I start it from the tip. It's perfect when I can eat the whole pizza by myself made with pizza oven like this. I do agree that eating pizza and snacks with friends is better, but hey, then we should order at least one pizza for one person. I like pizzas of any...

    What’s your favorite mix breed of a dog

    I'm both a cat and a dog person, but currently, I don't have any pets. But my favorite dog breeds are german shepherd, Akita, chow chow and labrador. As for the mixed breeds, I would say labrador husky, which is pretty rare, but those are very cute. But to me, even a stray pooch of the unknown...

    The Vegan and Vegetarian Thread

    I've stopped eating meat a couple of months ago. Eggs, milk and cheese are still in my ration

    What color is your hair right now? Do you like bleaching your hair?

    I've bleached my hair twice and I was not very happy with the result. Monica described how to lighten hair without bleach in her blog once: https://mystraightener.com/. Bleach can cause hair dryness so the options she described there are better. Now my hair is dark broun (shoulder length) and...

    When I was a child I used to like Woody Woodpecker :)
