The Friday Five on a Sunday
1. First time you cooked for someone else?
I don't remember. I would have been an adult. My family didn't teach me to cook. I could bake a cake or cookies by the time I left home, but I couldn't make a meal. It was likely to have been something very simple, like pasta with sauce, or a grilled cheese sandwich.
2. First time you threw up in someone else's toilet?
I haven't thrown up very many times in my life, and have mostly done so at home, once or twice outside. I really hate vomiting.
3. First time you did anything illegal?
This will be something very boring, like breaking the speed limit.
4. First time you saw snow/the ocean (whichever is more exotic)?
Lol, I grew up next to the ocean. I was eight when I first saw snow, at my maternal grandparents’ house. It was magical. The flakes were huge and diverse, and I can remember marvelling at the silence as they fell.
5. First thought when I say "crumple-horned snorcack"?
My brain conjures something that looks a bit like Allie Brosh's Alot.

I’m glad vomiting isn’t something you do frequently. I agree that it’s really unpleasant!

Some people don't seem to mind vomiting (the male inhabitants of this household, for instance). I don't understand how they can be so blase about it.

My grandmother retired to the seaside when I was an infant, and snow basically happened every winter at some point here, so neither are "exotic" to me. (These days snow feels rarer than when I was a child, but also mostly annoying/inconvenient/dangerous than exciting.)
