    I wouldn't mind answering this, but I got stuck on Question 10. Are you:
    a Sophisticated, chick, urban
    b Relaxed, cheerful reliable
    c Calm, serene, elegant
    d Wild, open-minded, risk-taker

    Aren't you the person who is either traveling now or going to travel
    the country? I think you're either b or d. From all I've read here,
    you're a B, but if you're doing what I think you're doing... you're a
    solid D.

    d Wild, open-minded, risk-taker

    I can't tell how wild you are... only your husband knows for sure!

    Wow, mine's "eclectic."

    That's what they call it when they don't know what to call it, right?
    Hmmmph.

    Whoa! I just looked at some of the examples of "eclectic!" Example #1, okay.
    But the other three?? I didn't know that was eclectic. I always thought THAT
    was bad taste!

    Eclectic was their opinion when I finished. Think they just might be right.

    lol, yeah, I wouldn't have exactly what they showed as examples.. but the
    term for what I am would be right. It is the term for those who can't be
    pigeonholed. Makes someone feel better to have a name to do just that. :-)

    NO! Eclectic is a real term for something that works. IMO: It's the
    biggest decorating compliment you can get because it indicates a broad
    range of taste and a willingness to make them work together.

    Eclectic is a tasteful mixing of periods and styles.... "A decorating
    style harmoniously combining furniture and accessories of various
    styles and periods" and "Composed of elements drawn from various
    sources".

    Feel better now? I'd love to see the reference URL, btw.

    Hmmmm. Online resposes are "Eclectic", but offline reponses are
    Country & Casual.... what other options are there?

    That's weird...the first time I took the quiz, it came up with something
    like "sleek and contemporary." But I couldn't remember the exact phrase, so
    I took it again, giving what I *thought* were the same answers, and now it
    comes up with "classic and timeless."

    I took it a third time, and now it says "sleek and contemporary" again!

    Whatever. I think it's one of those things that people tend to agree with
    regardless of the outcome. I looked at the kitchen photos: I liked the third
    and fifth ones under "timeless and classic," and the third one under "sleek
    and contemporary."

    I wonder if I copied it this way or not, but at any rate, I agree one hardly
    is sophisticated AND a chick --- tee hee. A chick, I'm not.

    I qualified for "classic and timeless." What is really spooky is that
    page 5 of "classic and timeless" is so close to the "theme" of the
    kitchen I designed in my house in Denver that it creeps me out.

    I'm Classic & Timeless. That's pretty much true, just keep "country"
    accents out of my kitchen!

    "Classic & Timeless

    "From time to time, you favor non-standard design, but you generally
    stick with the basics. You're more concerned with having a timeless look
    so it won't look dated in 10 years."

    Nah, I got that too - just means you refuse to be compartmentalised, and
    basically do as you please with influences taken from many styles and
    traditions of cooking, heheheheh...

    I got stuck on a lot of the questions as none
    of the answers applied in some cases - especially
    #10 and the one about colors.

    Let's see . . . #10 should be e. lazy, picky, whiny.
