My 2009 Answer:
Proust Questionnaire Number Three
On this day I don’t have a favorite color. As a child my first favorite color was green. Then it was blue. Then it was red. Then it might have been black. Then I realized having a favorite color was such a silly concept. All colors have their purpose and favoring one color over another is just madness. As Proust answered, the beauty is not in the colours, but in their harmony. I can’t beat that answer.
I also don’t really have a favorite flower. I’m partial to the flowers that I grow in my yard. Marigolds are easy to grow. I take great pride in my patch of moonflowers. I was extremely pleased with my dahlias. My lilies were striking and I hope to create a lily patch behind the garage next year. I was very pleased with my moss rose. I enjoyed by gerber daisies to no end. I was saddened that my patch of daisies didn’t take off this year, but I have great faith that they will come back with a vengeance in 2011. But I can’t pick a favorite flower.
Like last year, I can pick my favorite flower pictures from 2010:

The first person to correctly answer this trivia question (in the comments section of this website) gets to pick the next question of the Proust Questionnaire that I answer.
Trivia Question:
Whenever Christopher D. Bennett goes to a buffet, what does he get to eat with his ice cream?
Pickles. No, wait. Yeah, pickles.
That is incorrect, but closer to the answer than you think.
Off of which bar does it come? Salad bar, main entree, or dessert?
The correct answer is… Green Olives!
That is correct!

As a garnish? Or does he eat them?
I have chosen the next Proust Question for you to answer: Your chief characteristic.
Angie… he eats them (except the one I always steal as soon as he puts them down). They really are tasty treats.
I can’t tolerate sugar on top of sugar, so I use the olives to cut the taste of the sugar from the ice cream so I can continue to drink my tasty soda.
