ALWAYS go see Harry Potter on opening night.

Take my lunch to work in a dorky soft lunch box.

Need some light on (TV or otherwise) at night-- especially when I am alone.

Always need to eat frozen yogurt with a plastic spoon-- this tastes better to me as well.

I am sure loads of other things, but can't think.

Re: Name some dorky things you do

I am a dork. Everything I do is the opposite of whatever is cool.

For example... I make square, round, rectangular & pyramid shaped meatballs with spaghetti so that I can talk about geometry with my kids at dinner.

I record Billy & Mandy so I can watch it... after the kids are asleep.

I have an itty bitty book light so I can read in bed while my husband sleeps.

I underline, highlight and make comments in the margins of all of my books.

I lift my feet when crossing a drawbridge or toll bridge and make a wish.

I still look for 4 leaf clovers

Comfort seems more important to me these days than fashion.

I'm a nature dork. I can tell you what kind of bird it is by it's call. I love sharing this with my husband- he always rolls his eyes.

I do that too!!!!! Chat Icon

I always kiss my husband 3x. I don't know why, I just do. Once I guess just isn't enough for me. Chat Icon

I can't sleep if the closet door is open.

I need to have my sheets tucked in when I sleep. My husband is the opposite so half way across the mattress is tucked and the other isn't.

Add a little extra bread to the ones that you intend to 'shape' - just a bit extra. And PAN FRY them first to help them hold their shape. You can keep pushing the uncooked sides back in place while you fry. Just brown them. You can use the browned bits on the bottom of the pan to start your sauce too. mmmm

Wait, this is sounding a little too time consuming Chat Icon Chat Icon

Im a speedy chef. Speed and use of the least items possible are key (yeah, my mom has disowned me as an Italian daughter Chat Icon Chat Icon)

Can I bake them in the oven instead? Chat Icon

Yep.. but the edges won't look as sharp. Still cool though! And still effective to show how mass can be the same - regardless of shape.

I feel your pain... DH had to explain to me one day that the chorus to the song "dirty deeds" by ACDC is "Dirty deeds, done dirt cheap" and not "Dirty deeds, done der jeep". Chat Icon

What can I say? I've always been the rebel in the family! Chat Icon

I have to admit it DOES bother me that I don't know how to make a sauce. I think the worst part is that as I understand it, it's pretty simple to do.

My parents use tomatoes from a can too...
