I've had so many people ask me what the deal is with Ferndoggle. Stupid name, huh? Well it's an even stupid-er story. And...it has absolutely nothing to do with dogs. No lie.
My name is Jennifer. Most of the world calls me Jen. Scott calls me Jenny. But my family calls me Jennifer. When I was in high school, my brother's friend started calling me Jennifern. Then my brother started calling me Fern. Then my Dad got clever & started calling me Ferndoggle and the rest is history.
Told you it was stupid.

Woot! You said my name! Can you believe I've never been allowed to even TRY a fig? Isn't that sacreligious, or something, since that's my name?!
Oooooh. Very interesting Ferndoggle story. My ma ape's nickname is "Manch." Which has to do with the Village People song Macho Man and her childhood speech impediment. Yeah, it doesn't make any sense.
Very fun Scattergories!
wally.
ps. Does your ma love the de-high-dray-tor? My ma ape wants one SO BAD. She is trying to keep up with the Ferndoggles!
my Mom's nickname she has evolved almost the same as yours, started way back in high school then kept changing!
we LOVE in heat wheat. we being Mom and Dad because the ME part of that we is not allowed to have beer :(
Henry says Hissssssssssssssssssssss!
Just kidding.

Oh, Jen!! It looks like Ruby is calling you OUT, girl!! I'm glad you did this post, though. We don't get to hear from you very often. I'm surprised you had time to do it, what with all your food dehydrating and living with 3 diva dogs and all.
Goober love,

We liked your story of how you got the name Ferndoggle.
Nice way to answer that tag. We enjoyed all the pics.
Oooo, that Fergie's got fine ABS! A bet you do too if you wear a short tank top & that mini blue skirt. Pheeuuweeeet! LOL!

I wondered about that name too. Thanks for sharing that.
We got tagged for this game too from Tofu. Got to put our thinking caps on.
Love, Seadra and Zoe
Thanks for tagging me! I am so excited to play! I had a fun time reading your list.
Love Clover xo
What kind of dad would give their child a nickname like Ferndoggle. Though, I can say I was never called by my first name until I went to college. Interesting about Kevin Federline.
Ha roo! Cool list. Better you than me ... if ya know what I mean!
Play bows,
Zim
PS: Mom would LOVE the soup recipe! She'll email you!
