27. Do you like honey?
Yes, but it's a little much for my taste. I don't buy it because it turns to crystal before I'd use it up.
28. Jigsaws were invented in the mid-18th century by a cartographer called John Spilsbury, who thought that mounting a map on wood and cutting it into interlocking shapes would make an informative game for children and students. When was the last time you made a jigsaw (how many pieces did it have)?
Oh, this is such a bad question. First of all a jigsaw is not a jigsaw puzzle, and making a jigsaw puzzle by hand is a lot of work. I presume this person wanted to know about putting together factory produced jigsaw puzzles not the first two things. I usually do a jigsaw puzzle or two around Christmas time. I think the most recent one was 1500 pieces.
And yes, I have operated a jigsaw to cut small wooden shapes, but not to make a puzzle!
29. Do you know anyone who is a twin?
Yes, lots of twins. My mother's father and father's mother were both fraternal twins. So were my mother's two sisters. I think we had six pairs of twins in my high school graduating class, and one of my pals from my grad school days was a twin (never met his brother so I don't know if they were identical).

Unless I have tea with honey and lemon in the morning, I am useless all day.

Agree on honey. It always crystalizes before I finish it. And I'm always throwing it out. I've stopped buying it too. I don't tend to add sugar to things.
