Inspired by Maggie, and turning 30, I started working on a life list a few weeks back. I’m traveling for a couple of weeks, but thought I’d post this while I’m gone to keep things interesting. Here I give you 11-20 on the list of things I’d like to do with my next 30 years.
11. Host a party with a live band
12. Wear a little black dress with seamed silk stockings
13. Read the Bible
14. Sing Karaoke
15. Brush up my piano skills until they’re good enough that I can play something my family can sing along with
16. Eat at French Laundry
17. Grow my own herbs
18. Publish a children’s book
19. Cultivate a signature recipe that people best me to share; then share it with anyone who asks
20. Travel to a country where I don’t speak a word of the language
Hm. Many of these things sound lovely. Others sound like something I would never want to do, ever (karaoke? Ugh).
heh, well i’ve definitely done #14 many, many times over…. and i’ve *kinda* done #20. i say kinda because i’ve definitely gone to countries (alone!!) where i don’t speak the language – italy, germany, austria, japan – but i’ve always learned a teensy bit before i’ve gone. so while it’s not like i could hold a conversation, ever, AT ALL, i can’t literally say i didn’t speak a word. more like 20 words.
