1. If calories didn't count, I would eat... my weight in chocolate and chips....sweet and salty....yumm!

2. On my Prom night.... I was hoping to get asked out by my crush...but he asked someone else. Boo-hiss! I was forced to ask someone else from a different school and we ended up dating for a few months after. We went to prom and I'm pretty sure we ended up at Krystals (the hamburger place).

3. When I go to the store, I always buy... fruit, granola bars, and chips.

4. Family functions typically... lots of good food and then everyone napping on the couch.

5. I think my blog readers... awesome!! I wish I knew more of you in real life!

6. I'd much rather be.... On a beach somewhere with a fruity drink, fried shrimp and hushpuppies!

7. I have an obsession with.... Target!

 

8. My work friends.... and I need to see each other outside of school more often.

9. When I created my Facebook account.... I argued with my brother that Myspace was sooo much better....shows what I know!

10. My least favorite word is... tabernacle....I dont know why....I just hate it! It makes my skin crawl...

11. I really don't remember.... when my mom was sick/was dying...I think I somehow blocked it out of my head.

12. Justin Bieber.... needs to stop while he is ahead....pull up your pants!

Movie Review: Dark Skies

Last weekend Joe and I had a date night. We started off with dinner at Las Delicias...yum! After dinner we went to see a movie that we were super excited about: Dark Skies. It was super spooky and different from the typical alien movie. I really liked it. If you are into supernatural stuff, check it out.

There is nothing like taking a walk in the sunshine or eating lunch on the patio to put a smile on your face. The flowers are gorgeous down here in the South!!   2. What is your favorite kind of flower to grow or receive? I absolutely love Peonies. I wish they weren't so dang expensive!     3. What is your favorite nail polish color? You cant go wrong with a light pink neutral. My signature color is "Bubble Bath" by OPI.
