    • Best movie you've seen in 2011? Hmmm.. I haven't seen any that have really knocked my socks off lately. So I'm passing on this one.
  • Favorite winter non-alcoholic beverage? Pumpkin spiced latte.

    Favorite winter alcoholic beverage?  Vodka, but that's a year round thing :)

    Snow: love it or hate it?  Love, love, love it!

    Best movie you've seen in 2011? Crazy, Stupid, Love or The Fighter (can't remember if I saw that in 2010 or 2011, but I definitely watched it on DVD this year!)
  • Favorite winter non-alcoholic beverage? Hot chocolate with whipped cream, caramel apple cider, salted caramel mocha

    Favorite winter alcoholic beverage? I don't drink often enough to have seasonal favorites. I tell bartenders to give me something girly that doesn't actually taste like alcohol.

    Snow: love it or hate it? I love the look of it, but I hate cleaning it up and going out in it. I'm pretty sure I could move somewhere that doesn't get snow and be content.

    Best books you've read in 2011? Oh Lord, I can't pick one. The Secret of Everything by Barbara O'Neal, Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins, Whatever Happened to Goodbye by Sarah Dessen and more all got 5-star ratings from me this year.

    Best movie you've seen in 2011? Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows 2

    • Favorite winter alcoholic beverage? I can't think of anything that I drink in winter that I don't usually drink the rest of the year.

    • Snow: love it or hate it? I have a love/hate relationship with snow. I love it when I can stay home and don't have to get out in it. I love it b/c that means it's really cold and I'm not a fan of cold.

    • Best books you've read in 2011? Sadly, nothing really comes to mind. I just started A Paris Wife. I hear good things about it, so hopefully it will be good.
