Continued from Round 5 - Xben gets the next Q. Having started this thread way, way back in 2004 (I think), I'm pretty stoked that it's lasted all the way to Round Six! Thanks all for playing, it's awesome getting to know everyone a bit more. Here's a list of links to the others - Round One Round Two Round Three Round Four Round Five

Both incorrect. I received both - Jack Kirby I bought myself with birthday money, "Ender's Game" I was given, as well as its four sequels. I read the Omnibus, and enjoyed it. Haven't touched "Ender's Game" yet - my wife snatched it up first.

Not it. My wife not only ventured to the comic shop to get it as a little extra for me, but also had to even track down the comic shop as it had recently moved.

Got that too. But I couldn't find it to have during a work-trip that I'm currently on this week! It's gotta be in the house somewhere...

Nope. I made beef tacos for Blaze last month on one of our dates, but I've cooked since then.

e) Chocolate-Filled Pancakes
I haven't read everything I received yet, but I was pretty happy to get the latest Legion Archives so soon after it'd been released. I was also pretty happy to finally crack into the Jack Kirby material. My wife found the GK Chesterton book while I was away, so that should be fun too.

Xben, sounds like you're going to have some fun reading times soon. That's awesome, I know you're a big fan of the Jack Kirby stories No to both. We haven't had any birthdays celebrated at home recently, so no birthday noodles. The chocolate-filled pancakes were one of the last dishes I made, but not the last. Blaze also kindly reminded me that I neglected to add as a choice one of the last dishes I prepared - Chili Crab. But it still wasn't the LAST dish I made. a) Paella b) Chicken Parmigiana c) Lemon Chicken d) Shrimp in Tomato-Coconut Cream f) Steamed Vegetables in Cream Sauce g) Beef and Vegetable Curry h) Gambas i) Nachos with Ground Beef j) Sweet and Sour Pork k) Rosemary Chicken l) Fish in Butter Sauce n) Sukiyaki o) Carbonara with Bacon and Ham q) Kung Pao Chicken r) Curried Egg Salad s) Cream of Squash t) Roasted Vegetables in Olive Oil u) Tuna-Basil Pesto v) Lychee Fruit Cocktail w) Asian-Style Poached Fish x) Shrimp and Vegetable Tempura y) Pizza with Shrimp and Peas z) Chicken and Fish Jambalaya

Nope! I think I've only made that dish twice, none of them recently.
