OK, so Lee gave me the heads-up on another illuminating online personality quiz. She found it at JS's place. The rest of the San Antonio contingent, in their feverish, lemming-like, Episcopalian manner, had rushed to take it too.
I'm a good sport. These things mean so much to Lee, after all. How can I let her down? It's also a welcome diversion from filling in 1099s. I took it. All I had to do was plug my name into a field, hit the submit button, and there I had my personality in a nutshell. I assumed it was some kind of dumbed-down numerology thing. The Recipe for San Merideth:
| The Recipe For San Merideth |
 3 parts Mischief 2 parts Rebellion 1 part Charisma Splash of Recklessness Limit yourself to one serving. This cocktail is strong! |
Truth be told, I was a little let down by this particular Recipe for San Merideth. So I simply put the browser in reverse, headed backwards to the quiz page, and hit the submit button again. I didn't even retype my name. Voila! A New, Improved Recipe for San Merideth:
| The Recipe For San Merideth |
3 parts Ingenuity 2 parts Genius 1 part Craftiness Splash of Intensity Finish off with whipped cream |
Ingenuity.
Genius.
Craftiness.
That's more like it. Uncannily accurate in fact. And with whipped cream on the top. I thought, hey, what about other movers and shakers?
So I took the test for Mother Teresa. Here's the Recipe for Mother Teresa:
| The Recipe For Mother Teresa |
3 parts Fascination 2 parts Attractiveness 1 part Rebellion Splash of Elegance Sip slowly on the beach |
Wow, she is in a better place now.
Darth Vader??
| The Recipe For Darth Vader |
3 parts Style 2 parts Glamour 1 part Kindness Splash of Prosperity Finish off with a squeeze of lime juice |
Dead-on.
Dr. Phil???
| The Recipe For Dr. Phil |
3 parts Inspiration 2 parts Panache 1 part Ambition Splash of Giddiness Finish off with an olive |
Wow, that's Dr. Phil to a "T." Especially the Splash of Giddiness. I'm dumbfounded. Go ahead. Take the test. If you're not pleased with the results, keep taking it. Take it for anyone you can think of. Dick Cheney, Hamlet, Elizabeth Taylor, Harry Potter, Mr. Clean. It's fast, it's painless, it's free, it doesn't go on your permanent record, and you might come up with something you can actually swallow.
What's the recipe for your personality?

I don't know San, "3 parts mischief" sounds just right to me. :-d
Whatever you say, ALT.
Let me see how you fared...
LOL I agree with Alt on this. You are mischievous. But, when it comes to describing one's personae it is what makes you happy that counts.
I love the fun you made with this one. We need to start spreading this type of fun around. Too many Sours in the recipe world. :)
Hugs!
OK, Lee, I guess I'll settle for 3 parts Mischief to 2 parts Genius to 1 part Charisma. And I insist on the whipped cream.
This might be a daft question, but what's a 1099? Love the recipes! I'll have to check out Einstein ....
Enjoyed your comment about scraping ice for the ice pack I'll be holding to my furrowed brow today as the mercury keeps climbing!
LOL, i love that you took this on behalf of other people. thats' a riot.
personally i think your original recipe sounds more accurate for me!
oh and to answer your question at my place...
HNT is half-nekkid thursday. participants post a picture of themselves and some skin somewhere. could be a foot, a lip, a cheek, or anything. some do nudity others don't. my own personal choice is to do things that are either purely humorous, expressive of something meaningful or artistic in some way. it's up to the participant how they want to interpret.
there is a teeny tiny button link in my sidebar that takes you to a guidelines pages.
1099s are tax forms here. We use them to report "non-employee income" to our beloved IRS (Internal Revenue Service.) A gallery has lots of non-employees who receive income--the artists.
Lime, yes, you are quite the mischief-maker, aren't you?
You and your HNT. Tsk, tsk.
"...you might come up with something you can actually swallow." That's hilarious, and you and all America need a diversion from your 1099s.
I always knew Brother Darth was one spiffin' wannabe Goth. Dude had some major shine on that astral spandex. Thanks for callin' him out, Ms San.
Paschal, I never thought of Vader as a Goth wannabe, but yes, that Cinderella shoe fits rather well.
But "Goth," in its proximity to "Darth," made me think "Garth." A kind of mental typo. Makes me wonder what would happen if I plugged in "Darth Brooks." The mind reels.
thank you for the laughs, and you're willingness to play along with SA's insatible need to take personality quizes.
All in a day's drudgery, JS.
As you know, I'm fond of you SAs. Guess it's a co-dependency thing.
:-)
Thank you, San, for visiting Nick’s Bytes. Thank you more for your delightful blog. I clicked her to write the first line, I stayed here to read your posts. I shall return frequently.
I am delighted by your comment, Nick. And by the prospect of your return visits.
Thank you.
lol...i think i am afraid to. what if i am more like doctor phil than saint theresa?
Then, do what I did, Merelyme. Hit the back button and take it again!
Cute!. I don't think I'll take the test though. Thanks for your comment on my blog. I cry for the whole political system which is more concerned with party and winning than serving and working.
Hey, Dr. John. You're better off not taking these tests.
Don't get me started on the political system. I'll cry a river.
Hahahahahaha!!!!
(Wipes eyes)
The one on Darth Vader got me. (Although your others were purty darn good.)
Garth Vader. An idea whose time has come...
Lori, I'm now picturing you removing those stylish specs to wipe your eyes and laugh.
Nice image.
San, this is absolutely halarious! I have to say it was a tremendously wonderful ending to this dreary (weather wise) day! I don't know, maybe you should be more than 3 parts mischief in that recipe! Seriously, thank you for visiting my blog, again. Your insights are so meaningful. I'll be back to see what you get into later! :)
I'm a sucker for internet quizzes. They're good fun!
This recipe is a hoot! And very fun. Thanks for visiting again. Nothing new posted since I arrived in CA, but hope to take care of that soon. You are an amazing artist. I am drawn to you work, it reminds me of so many thoughts...emotions and experiences that I haven't thought about in a while. Isn't that interesting? Anyway, it makes me feel good and that is the best therapy.
Well, I think I'm all wit! lol funny post!
Kim-the-Artist, I say whatever helps us make it through the day is worth the recipe search.
The weather is dreary here too. Melted snow turned to ice. Break-a-hip-in-the-parking-lot days.
Well, Red, join the suckerhood!
Kim-the-Quilter, you've paid me an exquisite compliment. Thank you!
Maybe I'll hang out my shingle. :-)
Ms. Creek, glad you're laughing!
HI San! I am back from my intensive work week. I took the quiz and blogged it because I am too burned out to think of something new. Thanks for visiting my blog while I was away.
Heather Brown Truman:

Splash of Sass
Chug!
That works for me!
Have a great day San.
Oh, you spoiled my whole day. 1099.
Jolene, that's why I blogged it too. But I can never keep things simple. Story of my life.
Glad you're back.
Heather, yes, that does work for you, especially the impishness and the sash.
Chug indeed.
Hey Abraham. We all knew it was coming--the day of reckoning for independently contracting creative types.
George W Bush
