What's your personality type?
Have you noticed in the last decade (for you older folk like me) that we have a plethura of tests to tell us what we are like? We have tests for team building, tests to tell us our perfect job, tests that tell us where we should live, even tests to tell us what animal or color we are most like. You can even get on line and find some one with 957 things (important things!) in common with you for your perfect mate in life. Now don't get me wrong....I love taking those tests. I am an ENFP for all you Meiers/Briggs fans! I think I am the color green and I would love to be like the leopard if I have any choice in the matter.
However, I believe I have a simple test that is fool proof. No, I don't mean any fool can take it! You have in fact been taking the test your whole life...really, I am not kidding. You want to know what it is? do ya? I have observed there are two kinds of people. Just two. Those who use the table of contents in a magazine or books and those who don't. Are you the one ,who, after going through a magazine the first time does the following: "Oh I found this great recipe, it's right here.........oh where is it, I know I saw it on the right hand page. Just a minute...." as you leaf through the whole magazine looking for that picture that you know you saw. Or, are you the one who says " Oh I found this great recipe, let me look it up. Here it is page 27 in the 'one skillet dinners' section". That's it...two types. Both needed...both different....both wonderful.
My challenge to you is...discover who you really are. A browser or a searcher. If you are a browser, try looking at the table of contents first...you will add hours to your day and actually have time to fix that great recipe. If you are a searcher, try casually browsing through the magazine, take your time. You may find an even better recipe for dinner!!!!

I think I'm a browser but sometimes I am a searcher. (Can I comment on our own blog.)
Good food for thought Donna.
YOU ROCK!

I am SO VERY MUCH a browser (I think I've browsed through magazines with you ladies before actually). And, if anyone cares, I am an INFP (just like Dawna, only introverted) and a white. :)
I didn't even know magazines had a table of contents... I'm quite sure, I'd flip through the magazine searching for the table of contents... that's if it actually exists, which I'm not sure I believe you quite yet. Cheers my Dears, Seth Chase. aka, oregonfatts... sorry about the nickname, it's a movie thing
That is hilarious! That's all I am going to say.
