  Do you have relatives down by the effected areas of Katrina?
No, I don't have relatives affected, but a co-worker.  her small grandson is in mississippi, and she has no idea whether they evacuated, or where her grandson is now...it has been so hard on her.
Whats ur favorite color?

wine colors - burgundy.  i like vivid.

 Do you believe in God?

Yes, i do.  :-)

Name your top five books &/or authors you would stock in your bookstore.

I'll name the top five authors, because it would be difficult to choose the books. Pat Conroy, Fannie Flagg, Sue Monk Kidd, Lewis Grizzard, Alice Sebold.  Those are personal preferences for me, nothing influenced by the market.

  What Southern state are you in; always lived there? Name top five things you like best about it.

I'm in North Carolina.  I love the mountains and beaches here, the laid-back lifestyle, the sense of history (my own and more), the landscape.  and the people!  I've found more good than bad - and that's saying a lot, since i work in a prison. heheh.  what i really love about north carolina is october.  what i don't like about it is july and august.

(think I got more then 3 in already but...)   Since I am on a top 5 roll--- Favorites? (just ONE each) Tea? Desert? Part of nature? Sport or active thing?  Flower?

Tea - sinfully cinnamon
desert - omigod...just one...fresh pineapple cake, which i can't have because i'm on the south beach diet
Part of nature - rivers (that emcompasses a lot)
Sport or active thing - swimming
flower - jasmine

I like Fannie Flagg too, but after reading Flowers In The Attic I am stuck on V.C. Andrews at least for now. Can't take too much of it at one time though. Paula
