Things I want to try

1. Akashiyaki. A dumpling made from an egg-rich batter and octopus, dipped into dashi (a thin fish broth).
2. Bobbin lace. This lace textile is made from braiding and twisting thread which is wound around bobbins. It as also known as pillow lace or bone lace.
3. Dyeing thread. The color combinations are limited only by your imagination when the choice it made to dye your own thread.
4. Bookbinding. Have a favorite paperback that has lost its cover? Recover a classic from a yard sale with the front cover and spine hanging on by just a thread? With the knowledge of bookbinding, you can rebind these books; thus allowing them to be treasured companions for years to come.
5. Reading a book backwards. This challenge could be a intriguing exercise or a frustrating waste of time.
6. Traveling by plane and boat. Would I be seasick? Would looking out the window and seeing a sea of clouds cause terror?
7. Count the number of licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop.
8. Fletching arrows.
9. Horseback riding. How exactly does it feel to be in the saddle for long journeys?
10. Sledding.
