Since you guys think I’m hella cool haha, and want to know more… 
Six Weird Things About Me:
1.) My first and last names are colors - also the character of a children’s series. In fact, the character even has the same MIDDLE name. Spooky.
2.) I used to eat dirt - a lot. And yes, I liked it. I was a vegetarian, I needed MINERALS, man.
3.) I can touch my tongue to my nose, sometimes it makes my jaw hurt. Despite what you may think, no, it isn’t attractive. 
4.) I had cataracts in both eyes at 19/20 years old. I had to wear the super cool black mega sunglasses. And I mean that sarcastically.
5.) I had a tail. Just kidding! I only have one dimple. It’s in my right cheek and the bane of my existence.
6.) My high school nickname (not chosen by me) was “Knobs”. Guess what that means. 
At least they were more creative than using “Jugs”. Like Miss Strawberry, I was also teased in junior high for being flatchested. I guess they forget easily.
That’s Kiwi in a nutshell!

haha when exactly did you STOP eating dirt? it totally sounds like it was recent 
Miss Bluebell, I totally stopped years ago. Although I ate charcoal, too! Honestly, I have NO idea why I did it.
“Hella”
Nor Cal all the way…
Shelby, luckily I’m a So Cal girl, and the “hella” is something I jokingly picked up years ago while staying with an old BF. Now it’s like, my go-to word. Does that make me hella lame?
And Mrs. Spider- I’ll just say my first name is Amber. Anyone know what I’m talking about?
I only have one dimple too! Mine’s nott even a legit cheek dimple…it’s more like a mouth/lower cheek dimple.
Why is it the bain of your existence?
sm, I used to love my dimple, and would look at it in the mirror all the time (I was a kid). Then kids made fun of me for it. Why- it’s just a freakin’ dimple, right? Well, ALSO on my right side- and I RARELY bring this up- my ear is pixied. I mean it’s pointed like an elf. Only one ear. The other one is normal. So, they chose to make fun of my non-matching sides. I know people usually don’t have exact matching sides, but this was drastically so. I hate my ear, and am dreading taking pictures from that side.
I know what character you are talking about!!!!
Awww.. I remember those books. Very cute.
Wouldn’t that be great if you made those your wedding colors??
mrs spider you’re like a stalker hahahaha… how did you figure it out? google “character with two colors for a name”? 
i used to eat dirt too miss kiwi. and i use hella but i am from norcal. though it dissipated a lot after i graduated high school and moved to the midwest for college.
i used to eat: chalk, crayons, erasers, paper, play-doh, packing peanuts, silly putty, dirt, staples, gravel, any jewelry i was currently wearing…i never actually swallowed any of it, i just would chew it up and spit it out. weird. and disgusting, i know. every once in a while i still get the urge to chew up a nice piece of chalk (but i don’t)…it’s called pica, it’s weird, but oh well. FI thinks it’s funny.
oooh, i just figured it out! i loved that series!
Mee!!!: I also ate chalk! And leaves, erasers (especially the sanrio ones, dunno why), chapsticks, cardboard, and gnawed on all sorts of wood items (chair/table legs). Damn pica. I hear it gets worse with pregnancy?
And good job to all who figured out my name!! I swear, I came first, not the book!
Mrs. Bee - I was doing EXACTLY those kinds of searches until Miss Kiwi gave up her first name. Google found it immediately after that. My sleuthing did not uncover the character’s middle name though. haha… some mystery remains.
After reading this I too had to join in the fun of finding Ms. Kiwi’s name! Cuuute!
puhahaha that’s just like ou mrs spider. and miss kiwi - sanrio erasers smelled the best! i’d inhale the scent but never chomped down on one.
Just an FYI, pica (eating dirt, chalk, earth) is usually a sign of iron deficiency. ..
What a cool name! Oh, how I love google!
[...] a name that was colorful wasn’t always something I loved. People made fun of me constantly, at least the kids who knew my [...]
Amber Brown? LOL, reading that about the children’s book reminded me of that book.

About Me: I'm a bookkeeper who failed high school algebra. I'm currently living in Los Angeles, literally a street over from where I grew up with Mr. Kiwi, my honey of three years. We have a jumbo mini-dachshund (seriously, he's huuuuge), and we're planning an autumn themed wedding on a shoestring, paid for by ourselves. The wedding date is my late grandma's birthday, I needed her there somehow, and that seemed like the best way for us. I can't believe I'm a Bee! I couldn't be more proud!
