  • 1. Do you like Shamrock Shakes? Never tried one, I assume it's minty and I'm more of a fruity flavor person.

    2. What brand of tissues do you use? Whatever is on sale.  DH goes through them like they're going out of style.  I do go and buy the good ones when I'm sick though-haha.

    3. What is your DH's best physical feature? He has a really nice, big smile, complete with dimples.

    4. Do you believe in ghosts? I don't think so.  Our house is almost 200 years old, I think there would probably be at least one here.

    5. Favorite vacation destination (domestic & international) Anywhere beachy.  I had to go to Nantucket for grad school and would like to go back (and not have classes!).  I really haven't traveled much, just up and down the east coast.  I've only been to Canada and Mexico, so I'll say Mexico for international. 

    6. How do you take your coffee (or tea)? Don't do either. 

    7. Have you ever met anyone famous? Hmm....I used to work with a mom of one of the guys from Gym Class Heroes, in Oneonta, so I met him a bunch of times, before they "made" it.  And I have a friend who produces movies so we went to a red carpet premiere of his film, about Michael Phelps and Ian Crocker, so I guess I've met them.

    8. If you could travel to any US city to visit, where would you go? Wow, IDK where to start.  Practically anywhere. 

    9. What did you have for lunch? A salad

    10. Are you going to color Easter eggs this year? Hmm, probably.  Especially since it will be during my Spring Break time...
