I'll go one eye. Cheaper to get contacts :)

Cake or cupcakes?

Would you rather have one eye like a cyclops or a Uniboob


Goodness me, what a question!  :D 


Cake or cupcakes?
Seems the only difference would be the size, right?  I'll go with cake because a slice would normally be bigger than a cupcake-especially here in the UK where a cupcake is a 'bun' and about one third the size of a normal healthy cupcake!

Ice cream in a classic cone or one of those flat-bottomed cones (the type you usually get with soft-serve)?

Does your accent get mistaken more for Australian, South African or Canadian?

Don't think anyone could ever mistake my accent for Australian or S. African!  People guess Canadian, but most likely that's because it's less offensive for an American to be guessed as Canadian than the other way around. 

Have you ever mistaken a Scots for Irish or a Welsh for a Brit or any combo of the above?

Never, my husband is Scottish and I am very good at accents. I'm even getting good at regional dialects. He's had people think he's German on several occasions though.

Coke or Pepsi?

Kudos...I stink at accents.

(Diet) Coke, all the way.

Because it isn't as warm over here, I have learned to drink mine with no ice, simply because the glass/cup size is so much smaller here and at least I get more drink without the ice.

Candles or incense?

Do you put on lipstick/lip gloss and brush your hair right before your husband/fiance/partner/whatever comes home from work?

Just read your blog, very cute.
No I don't put on lipglass or comb my hair before my husband comes home he'd wonder what was up if I did.

Let's see... plain chocolate or milk chocolate?

Creamy, lovely milk chocolate.

'Real' gravy or quick and easy Bisto gravy?

Real gravy is my preference but that Bisto stuff is pretty darn good I must say.

Sunrise or Sunset?

Sunrise. I'm a morning person. Signifies the start of another day and opportunity to do it all again. Don't kid yourself. I'm actually not UP at 4:30 for sunrise these days!!

Preference of wake up alert: buzz/noise or radio?

Thanks Cwiddows!

I suppose I prefer the buzzer.  If I had my druthers I'd wake up when I felt rested every day.

Have you ever watched Four in a Bed?

No, never heard of it.  But you reminded me of a dream I had a couple nights ago!  (not sexy, but still four in a bed....)

Have you ever had a precognitive dream?  (a dream that came true after you had it)

Ooops just realized the question doesn't fit the format of this game (neither did sarahjoyhappy's question), so I will change my question.

Would you rather have a scary dream that wakes you up in the middle of the night with fear or would you rather see a ghost in full daylight?

I would rather see a ghost anytime, anywhere. Dreams are just that dreams although they can be very insightful.
