Personal Challenge: Letter E

United States

I think I learned a couple new skills today so I’m excited right now. My interaction has helped me learn quite a bit technologically as well as in other aspects. My favorite animal that starts with the letter E: Elephant, of course. I just heard the other day that the elephant is the only “proboscidea” species still in existence. There are three species of elephants alive today. The African Savanna; African Forest and Asian with four sub-species of the Asian elephant: Borneo; Sumatran; Indian; Sri Lankan. My favorite color: Ecru. My mother used to crochet and that was the color of one of the threads that she used to use a lot. I remember her mentioning the color several times. My favorite vegetable: Eggplant. I love to make eggplant lasagna. Have you ever tried it? It’s easy to prepare. I’m sure you can find an easy recipe online. My favorite novel: “Emma” by Jane Austen She was a good writer and I love the movies that have been adapted from her novels. My favorite FAMOUS person: Let’s see. Someone from the Bible. The great prophet, Ezekiel. What are your favorites?

I well remember coming across 'ecru' for the first time when I was learning to crochet.

Yes, it is definitely a popular color for thread. Do you still crochet? I never learned how. I do embroider however. I'll have to take some pictures and put them up here on MyLot.

@IreneVincent I don't do much anymore. I used to do a lot for a craft shop once - but that was mostly woollen stuff.
