Wednesday poll^2 (this one's for the lurkers)

Yep, I'm doubly curious today.

I figured if you're mainly a lurker you might not want to answer my prying questions about your life plans and budgets. Sooooo...

- Why are you a lurker?

- What color shirt are you wearing? (If you're a nudist you can just lie, we won't know)

- What's your favorite flavor popsicle?

- Where's your favorite place in NC?

- What's your favorite restaurant for date night?


See, quick and easy.  We're not scary.  :)

    I'll play!

    I lurk because I usually don't see the point in writing the exact same comment that the ten PP wrote. If I have something useful to contribute, I jump right in. 

    Teal shirt.  Go UNCW Seahawks!

    Strawberry.

    The vineyard where I am getting married :)  It is in my tiny hometown, which I despised while I was growing up there.

    Moe's! We eat there at least once a week.  If it is a special occasion, Melting Pot!

    Hi!  You should post.  You don't have to say the same thing as the pps.  You can just say hi.  You could start a totally new post about poptarts or something cool in Wilmington or whatever. 

    Please don't tease me about a NC winery.  I need details here.  :)

    I'll bite too :)

    I answer occassionally but mostly agree with the PP about why she lurks.  Sometimes I just check this site quickly to see if there are any new great ideas and move along after work bc I work long hours.

    Red NC State shirt :)

    Watermelon or Blue (blue is vague, I know, but it always tastes so good!!)

    Favorite place in NC is not a place but just a drive through the mountains!  They are so gorgeous and I never appreciated it growing up around it!

    Favorite date night restaurant is either Tasu in Brier Creek (for the Raleigh girls) or PF Changs or Kanki.  Totally a tie bc I love all three just depends on my mood!

    See look, you've both brought up topics that I <3, and you haven't even tried.  NC wines and chinese food are two of my favorite things.

    Talk to me about Tasu.  Is it Asian food? (I'm just guessing based on your other responses).  What do you like to get there?

    I want to play too!


    - Why are you a lurker?
    I have to agree with the previous two PP.  Sadly, I don't have much to add after it's already been repeated

    - What color shirt are you wearing? (If you're a nudist you can just lie, we won't know)
    A red New Mexico State baseball tee.  I have no affiliation with NMS, but it's the most comfortable shirt ever and I got it from Goodwill.

    - What's your favorite flavor popsicle?
    Not a popsicle, but strawberry shortcake ones.

    - Where's your favorite place in NC?
    Ballantyne or NoDa in Charlotte...completely opposite ends of the spectrum

    - What's your favorite restaurant for date night?
    Either Cowfish or Zen Asain Fusion (for the paella)

    My turn

    Why are you a lurker?
    I don't always lurk, I sometimes post. I don't always feel what I have to say is that important, or it's the same thing that has already been posted.

    - What color shirt are you wearing? (If you're a nudist you can just lie, we won't know) Black

    - What's your favorite flavor popsicle? Cherry

    - Where's your favorite place in NC? Wave Length- Beach House in Salvo

    - What's your favorite restaurant for date night? We've enjoyed anywhere that has the two for twenty deal lately. (Trying to save for the Big day)

    I am not engaged yet, but like to think I will get married sometime soon and this board gives some great info on vendors/reception sites...I don't want people to be snarky bc I am not planning a wedding.

    - What color shirt are you wearing? (If you're a nudist you can just lie, we won't know) pink, I needed a bright color to get me to work this morning

    - What's your favorite flavor popsicle? grape; which crazy enough I was just eating before I clicked this thread

    - Where's your favorite place in NC? the beach in October; either Wrighstville or Emerald Isle

    - What's your favorite restaurant for date night? We have so much fun pretty much every time we go to a restaurant, so no real favorites, but my bf is obsessed with qdoba haha

    I will have to try Tasu.  I have never been there and we only live maybe 25 minutes from Brier Creek.  I loveeee eating out!

    Click <a href="http://daveste.com/">here</a> for the link to the vineyard.  We are getting married under a big tree in a field across from the tasting room. (Pic taken before the spring leaves)
    <a href="#" title="Click to view a larger photo" onclick="return gSiteLife.LoadForumPage('ForumImage', 'plckPhotoId', '271333d3-b852-4d99-91eb-6c06678826d4', 'plckRedirectUrl', gSiteLife.EscapeValue(window.location.href));"> <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/images/store/7/1/271333d3-b852-4d99-91eb-6c06678826d4.medium.jpg" alt="" /></a>
    They also have a small pond so tons of options for photos between the water, the tree, the grape vines and the beautiful tasting room.  It is on cinco de mayo so we want to have mexican food but I am having such a hard time finding a caterer.  We also can't decide on the guest list.. 12, 25, or 40. But other than those two things everything feels pretty great!

    Have we ever had a NC GTG?  I know there was talk of one earlier this year but I missed out if it happened!

    Hey, that vineyard is in my hometown too! Small world.  I'm surprised to see anyone else from there on here because it is such a tiny town!  Good luck with all of your wedding planning!

    The vineyard looks beautiful.  H and I love NC wine, we'll have to check it out.

    There have been mini NC gtgs, but a big official one keeps falling through as far as I know.  Charlotte girls might have managed to pull one off.  If you're interested in one, plan it!

    I went to highschool at South with someone with your first inital and last name (gathered from your screen name).  I wonder if you are that person.  If so that would be crazy!   You can probably figure out my name from my screen name.  PM me if you know me!

    If that vineyard wasn't in the tiniest town ever, it would be an awesome place for a gtg. I will try to post over here more so I can get to know you gals and we can plan a gtg!
