Hey hey hey!
For the past few weeks there has been a “vlog” or video blog going around the internet within the healthy living community about accents. I saw Healthy Tipping Point do it so I thought I would give it a shot and enter the world of vlogging! Plus, now all you readers who don’t know be can get a grasp of what I’m like!
The words: Aunt, Route, Wash, Oil, Theater, Iron, Salmon, Caramel, Fire, Water, Sure, Data, Ruin, Crayon, Toilet, New Orleans, Pecan, Both, Again, Probably, Spitting image, Alabama, Lawyer, Coupon, Mayonnaise, Syrup, Pajamas, Caught
The Questions:
- What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house?
- What is the bug that when you touch it, it curls into a ball?
- What is the bubbly carbonated drink called?
- What do you call gym shoes?
- What do you say to address a group of people?
- What do you call the kind of spider that has an oval-shaped body and extremely long legs?
- What do you call your grandparents?
- What do you call the wheeled contraption in which you carry groceries at the supermarket?
- What do you call it when rain falls while the sun is shining?
- What is the thing you change the TV channel with?
So what do you think? Do I have an accent? Did you like the vlog? Would you like me to incorporate vlogging into Left Coast Contessa?
I agreed with all of the questions and remembered we’re from the same town, so Chicago at heart?
My family says clicker, but my boyfriend’s family says zapper which I use occasionally around them…because “zapper” is just too cool of a word I think.
Nice idea! 🙂
OH MY GOD! Zapper?! That’s amazing!
Yes, zapper. It’s either an Australian or Canadian thing….

Haha, my grandparents say ‘pop’ and ‘clicker’ too- I think it’s a Midwest thing!
Wow! You talk fast! 🙂 Clicker? I had never heard that before!
i love your voice! AND you are SO pretty!!
aw thanks!
I recently discovered a new one: apricot! Do you say “ap-ricot” or “ape-ricot”? I think most midwesterners say “apricot,” but apparently Californians say “ape-ricot.” Crazy.
I def say “ap” but some people I knew at college called it “ape” and it drove me totally crazy!
