Gimme a B(eat)! Ok that was lame, but I needed something sort of orginal...

Wife Of Riley played the List of Favorite Things Starting With the Letter... and after reading both hers and Kat's at Sunshine and Lemonade, I decided to play too.

Here is my carefully thought out and researched list of my 10 favorite things starting with the letter B.

1. Books - I love to read. Below are all my romance novels yet to be read, accumulated over many years. In between I read other more intellectually stimulating books about American History.



2. Blogger - I have met so many nice people who write such interesting and funny things, and I have gotten to know a lot better some people who I already had started to know from other places. Thanks to all of you, I am guaranteed at least one laugh every day.


3. Baseball - Specifically, The Chicago Cubs, who WILL win a World Series again in my lifetime. Even if I have to bring a goat and black cat in to every game!


4. Best Friends - I have some very special friends in my real life, that I wouldn't want to trade for anything else.


5. Birdseed - I love to feed the birds outside, watching the Cardinals, Chickadees, Sparrows, Red-Winged Blackbirds, and Doves hang out while they feast on corn, millet and sunflower seeds. And of course, all that spilled seed attracts Charlie, my squirrely friend.


6. Bubble Baths - I love taking bubble baths. If only bathtubs were made just a tad bit longer so I could immerse my entire body in those bubbles, instead of only half of me at one time.


7. The Bible - I'm not overly religious, I have never gone to church on a regular basis, but I do believe in God, I believe in what the Bible says, and I think it's an important part of understanding not only world history, but human history. There is so much to learn from reading the Bible. And one of these days I will be able to say I've read the entire book.


8. Breakfast - It's my favorite meal. I love the gooey eggs my aunt makes for me. Melting Velveeta cheese in my scrambled eggs. With a side of sausage and an English Muffin.


9. Bottles of wine - I love my wine. I'm no connoisseur, but having a glass (or two or three) of wine when I come home from work is a nice way to relax. I'm not picky, I like both red and white. Although my absolute favorite is Fume Blanc.


10. Bratwurst - Mmmmm, paying homage to my German heritage, I love me some bratwurst, in the wurst way! Sometimes I'll have them with sauerkraut, sometimes plain. If I had someone to go to Oktoberfest with, I'd be really happy!


So there you have it, my top ten favorite things starting with the letter B. If you'd like to play, leave a comment on Wife Of Riley's blog and she'll give you a randomly chosen letter. Or maybe it's not randomly chosen. Who knows! But it's still fun. Go ahead, I know you want to!
