Wow woman! That list is going to keep you busy for the next several years... but a very impressive list!

My favorites are 1 and 17; can't believe I didn't go on an African safari (photographic, of course) when I lived in Egypt!

Awesome experiences in your bucket. I share numbers 6-13-16-17 with you. Have borrowed 24 to add to my list. As I live in Australia, when you achieve number 4, drop me a line and I'll help you play tourist :)

White water rafting is awesome. I highly recommend it. Thanks for commenting on my blog! The taco soup I make is fabulous (if I do say so myself) and I also love Fossil watches. I have 2 but I have my eye on a few more! Your bucket list is impressive! You were published for scrapbooking? How cool!!

Good luck on the bucket list! Funny how we've come so far and done so many things only to come up with more lists of things to do lol.

Joining the PTA is not the thrill it is made out to be. Africa should definitely take priority.

CrazyCris said...

Looks like an interesting list!

I've done 7 (great thrills!), 8 (v. relaxing!), 9 (but only Tasmania, is gorgeous!), 16 (but don't remember much of Vancouver, I highly recommend Jasper National Park though!) and 24 (one of my favourite hobbies, I take my mask and booties with me whenever I travel in case there's a chance to do some diving!)

I'd love to visit all 50 states... but if I add those to all the other places I'd love to visit... I think I'd better get a job with a tour book company! :p
And 13 has been a dream of mine since childhood, but it's hard to find a place where it's legal.

Good luck with those! I'm sure you'll be able to fulfil quite a few of them!

Hello again this morning...yea I don't frequent the dollar store much either. I think I was there to buy my husband pencils for his class and found my stash lol.

The taco soup is fabulous because it is so amazingly easy and because it uses only one pot. Here's the recipe:

Taco Soup

1 lb. ground beef
1 package taco seasoning
2 small cans tomato sauce (I usually get the really tiny ones)
1 can rotel (whatever flavor you like)
2 cans black beans
2 cans corn
1 package powdered buttermilk ranch dip

Brown meat in large pot; drain (if needed). Add taco seasoning and prepare according to directions on taco package. Add remaining ingredients (juices included), bring to boil. Simmer for about 30 minutes.

Serve with crumbled Tostitos on top, cheese, sour cream and or guacamole.

Enjoy and let me know how you like it!

You've been published for scrapbooking? That is incredibly cool. Love the list. Sounds like a life well-lived to me!

Good idea. I will make a list of my own.

Is it totally rude that I am laughing hysterically on the inside (sleeping baby, sister and husband in the house at 4:30 am) that one of your items is to join the PTA?!

*krystyn* said...

Amy-no, I would expect that sort of reaction from you. :)
