What are you non h&f talents?

[joenali]

I know some people already said some things, but you can share again!

I just got distinguished marks for teaching at my year end evaluation. I think I could put teaching down as a non-h&f talent!

[joenali]

I tried editing the title, it didn't work. Drugs man! ?

[wambam]

I have none lol.

I know a disturbing amount of information about Christian fundamentalism. Does that count?

Of course! I like that you are a wealth of fundy knowledge!

I'm really good at researching and planning travel, I even planned my best friend's honeymoon for her.

This might be mine too! DH keeps telling me that I should have a small, side, travel business. It's fun!

ETA: Really though, I feel like I'm pretty decent at a lot of things, but don't really excel at anything. LOL 

[cinco]

I don't really have any talents, which I'm fine with. Someone has to be average. Even the H&F stuff is in large part due to persistence.


joenali My parents were both teachers and it is definitely a talent. My brother seems to have gotten their gift and is a coach now. I do well with entertaining small groups of children, but don't expect them to learn anything.

[Brit]

I'm a pretty decent writer. I fantasize about quitting my job to do freelance writing.

I think this is me. I'm good at many things, but I don't feel like I'm a superstar at anything.

[Susie]

This is kind of H&F adjacent, but I feel pretty capable and competent at the logistics and gear operation of backpacking, including map & compass use.

[finallykrisb]

Sewing. Not clothing so much as bags, blankets and the like.

[kams]

I echo the "pretty good at lots of things, not an expert at anything."

I throw a pretty good kid's birthday party. I had a 4.0 in grad school, but I dropped out when little E came along, so, that was sort of a bust. I'm crafty. I'm a good cook, and have catered weddings by myself (and everything went well (my mom owned restaurants so I have a bit of a base )). My biggest sources of pride are my husband & babies, so not really my own accomplishments.

[katyintx]

I'm really good at figuring out what songs are based on a 2-3 second clip. Useless talent. I also make some killer brandy slush. And I kick-ass at Wheel of Fortune.

[clseale]

I make great drinks and I can throw one helluva party! I love to entertain. My coworkers always task me with planning our food and drinks when we travel. Basically, I kick ass at having a good time & making sure others do the same. You will always be laughing, fully fed and boozed, when I'm around.

We used to play this as a drinking game in college.

[ktzmoh]

I'm really good at knitting
I'm also a pretty decent carpenter and I know my way around powertools

[katinthehat]

I knit. And sew. And sort of quilt when necessary.

Can I just say that I am SO. EXCITED. to meet you in October?  I share your useless talents (minus brandy slush making).  We can be awesome together with our useless talents!  

[hannahb]

I make a cute kid! That's it. I also have s masters and doctorate degree so I guess I have some brains too

[shorewife]

Non H&F talents? What are those?! I'm pretty good at drinking....

[hannahb]

A degree, not s. Apparently not enough brains to type a coherent sentence

My talent is that I can read your mind and correct your post title

This made me lol!

[mrshandy]

I'm good at memorizing crap. I know all of the world capitals since I was bored at work one day and deciding to memorize them. (I did this with the flags as well)

I also love to write. My little blog serves as the main outlet, but I occasionally get to do some freelance or just straight volunteer stuff. Writing a book is definitely a life goal, but it might be awhile.

I'm decent at plenty of things, but not a master at too many.

[zoidberg]

I am nitpicky, bitchy, and pedantic for a living. Pretty good at those things.

[al320]

Im a tremendously embarrassing math nerd and analytical thinker. I see everything in numbers.

I know a lot about otc drugs (bc of work, but im always surprised how little normal people know, even if they think they know). Thats not really a talent.

So we are all dying to know: What do you do for a living?

[bostonmichelle]

I'm really good at doing math especially calculating pace while running.

In school I generally didn't have to try hard and most of my math classes came easy to me. I passed all 4 sections of the CPA exam within 6 months on the first try.

I'm pretty good at drinking.

My family will not play Scattergories card #5 with me because it has "drugs/medicines" on it. I just "go to the shelf" in my head and I can think of like 30 of them
