Tagged!

I don't like chain letters and even signed the petition online to get rid of them. But this sounds like an exception. As far as I know, tangobaby tagged us. A little thing, this blog is written by 4 people (although I seem to be the one that logoorrheates most) but this is only my side of things!
The rules are
1 - Link to the blog who tagged you

2 -
Post the rules on your blog
- Share seven random and/or weird things
about yourself.
- Tag seven people at the end of your post and include links to
their blogs.
- Let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog
.

1 – My hands and feet are always cold (I try to warm them up before going to tango)! As they say in the place where I am from, cold hands, warm heart.

2 – I love to cook to alleviate stress. It’s double tasty!

3 – My eyes change colour. I never understood what triggers it but they go from greenish grey to emerald green. I must be a freak.

4 – I was once in a train Warsaw-bound thinking I was in a train to Budapest. I got out of the train just in time to board another train that was going to... Bucharest! It doesn’t stop here, I ended up going to Prague!

5 – Just like Amelie Poulain, I love sticking my hands in bags of beans and I can’t get enough of breaking the surface of thin ice on lakes.

6 – I don’t like when I am dancing and people hum. I’m sorry, it just interferes with my concentration!

7 – Once, for Carnaval, I dressed up like a woman and got chatted up... by a friend of mine! (I looked fantastic)

So the blogs I am tagging are:
A time to dance
Great Dance
Tango Atlântico
Abrazo (we all have hope)
Mesa da Ciência
tangobaby (aha!)
Quartos Escuros

Hi Koolricky,

This is a great list! (And yes, I did tag you and thank you for playing along.)

So, now the questions: What do you like to cook? And does the friend that tried to pick you up read your blog?!!

I love that scene in Amelie with the beans. I love that whole movie from start to finish, but especially this scene:

My eyes are blue but they turn emerald green when I cry (is it a vascular thing?). I would much rather have green eyes all the time, though.

Thanks for sharing. I don't know if I am "allowed" to be tagged again. The blogosphere might erupt in revolt. ;-)

What do I like to cook... Good question. I base my cookings on Portuguese/mediterranean food but I really can't be bothered with strict instructions (a bit like in tango I can't be bothered with sequences) so I go along and play it by ear...
The friend who chatted me up (he realised maybe 30 seconds afterwards) does not read this blog, I am not even sure if he ever came here. He is not into tango, more into house... It's amazing how a different look can change you so much that people don't know you. It happened with many other people but his reaction was the best!
Amelie is a fantastic film. It has every single ingredient for success. I have watched inumerous times!
