Riddle Me This...Riddle Me That

Great Grandma Finnerty was over yesterday to babysit and brought with her a riddle that she cut out of the newspaper a couple years ago, which she just happened to find (the riddle is unique because of the name used). My Grandma said that it must have been a premonition of her great granddaughter who has now arrived and asked me to add it to the blog. If you read it and want to guess the answer you can do so in the comments. I’ll post the answer when we return from our first family vacation. Cambria here come the Behrends!!

Emma is odd but not peculiar. She hates arguments and is agreeable. She dates a programmer but loathes systems analysts. She’d like to get married but can’t pick which month to do so. She has narrowed it to summer or fall because she hates the spring and winter. She is sure to enjoy her wedding but not her reception. Emma’s little cottage has three rooms. She likes the walls and floors but not the ceilings. She likes the doors but not the windows. She sleeps on cotton sheets and pillowcases because she hates linen and silk. She likes dogwood trees and their small blossoms but dislikes flowers. He favorite colors are yellow and green; she doesn’t care for blue or red. She wears dresses instead of blouses and skirts. Her hair, of course, is brunette. Emma has a treadmill but doesn’t like to exercise. She’s chubby but not plump. She loves the wilderness but hates camping. She enjoys cooking but stays out of the kitchen. She like books but not magazines…Does Emma prefer alligators or crocodiles?

We had to figure this out for my son's extra credit for school. Obviously, Emma likes alligators!
