Do you know how to knit?

Nooo.  I can barely even sew.

Are you good at giving massages?

I give H a lot of backrubs and he seems to like them, so I guess so.

favorite fad as a kid:
Jelly shoes!!

Do you know how to knit?
YES.  And it's my favorite hobby.

Are you good at giving massages?
Eh.  FI says I am, but my hands ache too quickly.  My sister is a pro at them -- she started going to massage therapy school before she got really sick, and she can go for like...an hour before her hands start to hurt.

favorite fad as a kid:
Neon clothes.  Seriously, I had no fashion sense as a child.

Knit? No but I know how to cross stitch.

Good at Massages? I guess but I don't usually give massages because I get bored and it makes my hands tired.

Favorite fad as a kid? I loved the side ponytail and colorful scrunchie socks. I would wear a pink pair, layered with a yellow and green pair; then I would scrunch them down on my ankle. It was the cool thing to do, and my sad attempt at coolness.

Do you know how to knit?

Sort of.  I know the basics, but can't do anything complicated.

Are you good at giving massages?

I hope so!

favorite fad as a kid:

I loved jelly shoes and stick on earrings.

Do you know how to knit? I know how to use a Knifty Knitter. I've made so many hats and scarves. It rocks my world. 

Are you good at giving massages? Yep. But I'm even better at receiving them.

favorite fad as a kid: Butterfly clips and lotion/body spray/hair spray with glitter. I was a pretty dark kid, and yet somehow, I loved butterfly clips and glittery crap. Ah 1999, when anything was possible.

Ohh - I forgot about stick on earrings! I had<em> tons</em> of them!

Do you know how to knit?  I do, but not very well. I'm much better at crochet.

Are you good at giving massages? I'm apparently good at neck rubs, but I'm pretty bad at a full back/body massage ... now I want a hot stone massage. My birthday's in a couple months, I think I need to start dropping hints to DH, lol.

favorite fad as a kid:  Hmm ... probably body glitter, which was huge in late middle/early high school. I loved to sparkle before Twilight made it lame, lol.

Do you know how to knit? no, I should have had one of my roommates teach me in college.

Are you good at giving massages? not really.

favorite fad as a kid: scrunchies

Do you know how to knit? nope...my mom just learned how and knitted me a beautiful blue scarf though
Are you good at giving massages? I've been told...my dad is a massage therapist as a side job and taught me well
favorite fad as a kid: those springy butterfly clips...freaking LOVED them...I also had patches on all my jean shorts...

Do you know how to knit?  Nope.  I tried crochet when I was younger but it was a fail.

Are you good at giving massages?  I try, but my hands are freakishly wee, so it makes it hard.

favorite fad as a kid:  I had a pretty extensive POG collection.  I'm not sure if it counts as a fad, but I wore a ridiculous amount of bracelets in junior high.  Like, a couple dozen per arm.  It was a thing with me and my friends and we'd trade bracelets with each other and such, but I don't know if it was an actual fad.

Do you know how to knit? My mom has tried to teach me several times, and it's never stuck.

Are you good at giving massages? I'm ok at them--I get bored easily.

favorite fad as a kid: I loved glitter on everything, but I'd probably go with POGs.

And Aerin, you and your friends had Silly Bands before they were cool! :-)

I was in first grade the first time ... and the snapping sound scared me, lol. I was afraid putting them on hurt.

Do you know how to knit?

Yes but not well... I recently started a sewing class though to be able to do some DIY projects

I hate giving them since my hands hurt  fast

favorite fad as a kid:
I used to hairspray my bangs to the side in a flip oh and crimping!

What I find amusing is that many of the things that were "in" when we were young (from a previous WPBP I got that most of you are around the same age as I am...) are coming back "in" now...my 8-year old has Cabbage Patch Dolls, slap bracelets, and Care Bears...

She's also the same one who asked me if they used a grist mill in the "olden days, when you were a kid, before they had electricity" and thought an 80's car was from the "olden days" LOL
