My dear Friend and fellow blogger over at Two Pretzels invited her readers to participate in a fun little survey. The Proust Questionnaire can be found in Vanity Fair magazine with various responses from different actors and actresses. I have never actually seen the questionnaire, but for more information you can visit her blog. Thanks for the invite, K! Here are my responses:
