    Are you a neat freak or a messy person? I WANT to be a neat freak, but my office and our bedroom look like hurricanes have swept through.
    You have to eat the same meal for dinner for a week, what is it? I'm on this huge risotto kick right now, but I have been known to eat yakisoba practically non-stop.
    Fave fruit: My favourite flavour is passionfruit, but to eat out of hand I love cherries and pears.
    What was the last book you read? Would you recommend it? I've been going through the book list for my students, so I just finished reading the Book Thief. It was great! I even began tearing up on the subway as I was reading it.
