I think I played this on email a while ago. I love the scent of Cinnamon, too, and enjoyed your answers. Everyone gives memes a hard time, but i like them. At least once in a while. xxxooogretchen

Glad you decided to meme with me, Mer. Good job! ;o)

I don't like to do memes all the time, but I do like to do them occasionally and some of them are really fun and you learn a lot about the person doing them.

Hope your new week is good!

Love and hugs,

Diane

Let's see, there was Math, Journalism and Business (Mer, Jen and Bonnye)... they were painted plywood weren't they? (like that's a step up from plastic!) It sure looked nice in my dorm room the next year...
