Re: Friday Five
2. Ranch or Blue Cheese? neither....
3. If you were given the talent to be considered "world-class" at something which you currently know little to nothing about, what would it be? Oh....hmmmm I would love to be world class at singing/dancing/acting/cooking/baking/sewing/designing/event planning but I do consider myself to know SOMETHING about all of those areas....SO I would love to be a world class NYC historian I'm SO fascinated with all of the history of the buildings and all of the ins and outs and "secrets" that the city holds. (then I would expand to other cities)
4. What were the last food and/or drink items you bought from a vending machine? An Iced Tea during dress rehearsal when I needed to walk away for a moment from the disaster haha. I haven't bought food from one in a while but I bought peanut butter m&ms from the local convenience store which is similar. Mmmmm peanut butter m&m's are GREAT! Now I'm hungry!
5. Plans for the weekend? Nothing at the moment for tonight/tomorrow!!
1. How did you celebrate your 21st birthday?
On my actual birthday (many, many moons ago) I went out with friends for dinner & drinks but nothing wild. Later that year my Mom & I went to San Francisco. It was my parent's b-day goft to me. Very fun!
2. Ranch or Blue Cheese?
Blue Cheese!!!!
3. If you were given the talent to be considered "world-class" at something which you currently know little to nothing about, what would it be?
I would have to say chess. I've always wanted to know how to play & I think I'd really enjoy it.
4. What were the last food and/or drink items you bought from a vending machine?
Diet Sunkist & a pack of nabs (if you're not from the Carolina's you call them crackers - the 6 pack of Peanut butter on cheese).
5. Plans for the weekend?
DH & I are going to the beach to celebrate his 36th birthday. Tomorrow night we'll be dining @ RIOZ in Myrtle Beach. It's a Brazilian steakhouse that's supposed to be really fantastic. We'll be coming home Sunday evening hopefully with a little sun, a little more relaxed & very full from eating @ RIOZ & all the fresh seafood that we'll buy while there. Ahhh....I'm starting to relax already.

2. Ranch or Blue Cheese? I like both, so it depends on my mood. And if H is around, he thinks blue cheese is gross.
3. If you were given the talent to be considered "world-class" at something which you currently know little to nothing about, what would it be? Ballet. I would love to be a dancer. I just signed up for ballet classes, but it makes me kind of sad that I'll probably never be really really good at it.
4. What were the last food and/or drink items you bought from a vending machine? I cannot remember the last time I used a vending machine. I try to stay away because I like it all too much!
5. Plans for the weekend? Nada.
1. How did you celebrate your 21st birthday?
I had a 21st bday WEEK b/c my roomie's 21st was 3 days before mine. And it was during the summer so none of us really had responsibilities. We basically drank our faces off for a whole week and by the time my actual 21st came, i was too tired to be too crazy (though we did our best to do a bar crawl)
2. Ranch or Blue Cheese?
Ranch usually but I'm cool w/ both
3. If you were given the talent to be considered "world-class" at something which you currently know little to nothing about, what would it be?
Wedding/event planner. I love parties and weddings and am pretty good at hosting my own small gatherings, but it would be amazing to manage to be the best party thrower EVER
4. What were the last food and/or drink items you bought from a vending machine?
Probably bottled water
5. Plans for the weekend?
Nothing big...maybe out to dinner tonight. Then doggy school and running some errands tomorrow. The sun has finally come out so I MUST go to the pool/beach at some point!
2. Ranch or Blue Cheese? Yummie Blue Cheese!
3. If you were given the talent to be considered "world-class" at something which you currently know little to nothing about, what would it be? My first thought is that it would be really neat to be a wold class Wine person (I am sure that there is a name for it, and not Somilea (sp?)) Just having knowledge of wine. Or some type of world class athlete.
4. What were the last food and/or drink items you bought from a vending machine? Wow, I honestly have no idea when the last time that I bought something from a vending machine was. Hmm, maybe 10 years ago?
5. Plans for the weekend? Tonight we are going to a KISS concert with some friends. Tomorrow morning the gym, tomorrow afternoon is a conrhole (I hate that name) tournament for charity (Fight Gone Bad, a CrossFit thing to benefit Wounded Warriors, Livestrong and another charity). Then we have a lot of errands and house cleaning to do. Plus I should probably do some school work.

4. What were the last food and/or drink items you bought from a vending machine? Yesterday I bought these fruity snack things, I had a sweet tooth and they were probably the only thing in there that was fat free.
