There were two favorites--one (a stuffed tiger) I still have in storage at my friend's house, so I haven't given it up, yet!  The other one (a stuffed cat) I cut up and recycled into something else a few years ago, (I sort of regret doing that  :() so I was about 40.

How old were you when you stopped sucking your thumb at night?

My parents weren't into that,  there was never any santa claus, tooth fairies, easter bunnies  etc at my house and I ruined those things for more than one child at school  ;D you had to grow up fast in my house and there was never any joy for my parents in us being cute or sweet or children.

My  mum is going all out doing it for my sister's kids though, like hiding eggs and having hunts, stockings at xmas etc, is it wrong to be a bit jealous? :P I do those things now though, have a big xmas lunch about a week before xmas with my friends and we do stockings and gifts and I cook a turkey :)

HOWYW you had your first "inappropriate" crush (teacher, friend's dad, Klingon in star trek?!)

I was a great reader as a kid, so most likely under the age of 10 for both of those.

Oh probably as soon as I threw a fit- 2 years old? My hippie mom didn't bother too much with what we wore and it was all hand me downs and charity shop finds because that's all we could afford. But we didn't care, it was a happy childhood!   

How old were you when first tried sushi?
