Re: Friday Five
2. What's the name of the first book you can remember reading from cover to cover? Wow I can't think of any at all. I'm SURE I read many books before I started Baby Sitters Club.....I'd guess a Berenstein Bears book maybe? (though I'm sure I read some school books before that)
3. What's the largest crowd you've ever been a part of? I don't really do crowds...since I'm claustrophobic, so maybe Disney World? Or some sort of concert?
4. What do you like about fall? Apples and Apple Picking and caramel apples YUM
5. Plans for the weekend?Nothing today/tomorrow Sunday we are going to lunch on Long Island with my fam, mom's mom (nonna), and MIL.

5. Plans for the weekend?
2. What's the name of the first book you can remember reading from cover to cover? I have no idea - probably something from Judy Blume like Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing.
3. What's the largest crowd you've ever been a part of? Probably when I went to the Amnesty International concert in Philly 1988 (yeah, I'm old). I believe there were over 100,000 people there.
4. What do you like about fall? The temperature is often perfect, and I love the leaves changing.
5. Plans for the weekend? Going to Rome for a business trip tomorrow through Thursday.
2. What's the name of the first book you can remember reading from cover to cover? In A People House. I can't remember the author but that was my first book.
3. What's the largest crowd you've ever been a part of? Either Disneyworld or one of those other theme parks, or maybe to get more local, DEMF (Detroit Electronic Music Festival). When I was single as they come, I hung out on a clubbing website and would meet up with all the people I met on there at the annual festival on Memorial Weekend. It was kinda cool showing up there by myself and knowing 100+ folks.
4. What do you like about fall? The colors, the season changing, the weather, cider mill visits, Thanksgiving and football/hockey.
5. Plans for the weekend? Shopping tonight for running shoes for DH and dinner over my mom's. Fall festival in Trenton tomorrow with DH and SD and possibly visiting with my childhood NDN and her adorable babies. Football on Sunday, dinner over mom's and checking out the new Ulta by her house while DH mows her yard.
]1. Who or what do you think should be on the next postage stamp? The Phillies :-) bc they are AWESOME!
2. What's the name of the first book you can remember reading from cover to cover? I don't remember back that far . . . ?

5. Plans for the weekend? tonight--Pampered Chef party; Saturday--grocceries, laundry, and watching the Cards game; Sunday--church, errands, football and baseball and maybe hanging out with my BFF
1. Who or what do you think should be on the next postage stamp? I like the answer "me!", but as I'm not always the most photogenic, I'll say some kind of 9/11 commemorative stamp.
2. What's the name of the first book you can remember reading from cover to cover?
Ok...we're going back to when I was like, 4-5! Probably one of those little golden books. I loved reading those in kindergarten :-) But as for the actual title of the first book I read cover to cover, I declare I can't remember back that far!
3. What's the largest crowd you've ever been a part of?
Good one...let me think...I've been in many large crowds (not sure what that means...hmmm) so I'll pick my most memorable large crowds - two occasions back in 2000: The first when the city got together for a rally in downtown Baltimore to send the Ravens off to the AFC Championship game verses the Raiders (about 250K)...and then again when the city practically shut down and we all came out downtown for the Super Bowl Champ Ravens victory parade (about 300-400K)!!! I still remember it as thought it were yesterday...there is nothing like being part of a hometown Super Bowl win!!!
4. What do you like about fall? Everything? The smell in the air...the changing of the leaves...the cool crisp days with just enough sun...football...sweater weather...oh, just everything!
5. Plans for the weekend? Shopping with Mom, watching football and relaxing!!
Have a great weekend, ladies!!
1. Who or what do you think should be on the next postage stamp? I like mostly just holiday or patriotic stamps.
2. What's the name of the first book you can remember reading from cover to cover? Tiny Tiny for a super short book for little kids and for an actual "book" I remember the Mouse and the Motorcycle, Box Car Kids, Sweet Valley High and Baby Sitters Club were all read when I was like five and six....
3. What's the largest crowd you've ever been a part of? Well, Memorial Stadium (where the Huskers play) has a crowd of 80,000+ at every game...which is more than the NFL stadiums I have been at! Other than that, I was at Rock Fest in a park in KC that sold out at over 60,000 tickets! That was crazy!
4. What do you like about fall? The weather, the colors, the clothes, cooking a lot of warm meals again, football...just everything about Fall is awesome!
5. Plans for the weekend? Cleaning, cooking and football...pretty much sums it up!
