I did a search to see if this has been done before, but I didn't see one.



Plain and simple. What's your hidden talent?

Aaaaaand I'll be visiting @joybaby5 for breakfast. 

I'm not sure I have hidden talents. I like to flaunt what I'm good at.

I can tie a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue.

I've always wanted to know how to do this.

Practice, practice, and practice. Regular cherry stems are too stiff. You have ton use marachino cherries

It real be a real hardship to have to eat all those maraschino cherries...

I can tie cherry stems with my tongue too. My DS1 thinks it's the best thing since sliced bread. "Again! Again! HOW do you do that, Mommy?!"

I'm pretty great at drawing. My DH is always the one to tell people and AW my "artistic abilities". |)





Guise! We all grew HUMANS! And none of us knew what we were doing/how we were doing it. I'm pretty sure that's considered a hidden talent.

I can sing. And I'm pretty good with a sewing machine. But those aren't really hidden talents, so much.

I can bend my tongue in a pretty crazy way, kind of looks like a W I guess? Kind of hard to explain, and don't really know how I realized I could do it, haha!

I have a really good memory for names, numbers etc....useful in my job, but annoys the life out of people when I can quote back outstanding debt values to the penny from about four years ago
I can pick things up with my toes - this was very useful when pregnant and incapable of (too lazy to) bend over

@CiaoMama‌ ewww.

I think my "hidden" talent would be the fact that almost everyone at every job I've had thinks I like them. I'm very good at getting along with difficult people. Lame?

I'm really good at reading people. I can get an idea of what they like/don't like pretty quickly and takes conversation accordingly. It makes me a great brown noser

I play viola, French horn, piano, and a few other instruments!

I'm really good at peeling labels off of things without leaving any residue- like beer bottles or stickers on toys.

Forgotten talent - I play the flute.  I was pretty good throughout HS and college, but I really need to pick it back up an start practicing again.  My embouchure is not what it once was.

fftc: I even upgraded my flute ($$) a few years ago, but still haven't had the time to put into practicing...

eta: added fftc

@Dexter&11‌ My mom used to pick things up with her toes when I was little (she still does), so I learned how to do it and I do it all the time. Now my DS1 does it too. 8-}

I can also wiggle my ears.

hammysmommy

@JA82406 - I do that too!  H thinks it's weird...

djtippietoes

I'm really good with directions and navigation in general.

I love that you used the word embouchure!!

Actual talent or stupid human trick?

Actual talent: I'm a trained "classical" singer... opera, art songs, musical theater, ect. I've been a professional music minister in churches off and on for years, and still do weddings, funerals ect when asked. ;-)

Stupid human tricks: I'm ridiculously good at bar trivia. I remember random crap like no one's business! Can i use that brain real estate for anything useful? no...
