The Blogger Behind the Blog

I thought it would be fun to share some random facts that you probably didn’t even know you wanted to know!!!

1.  How long does it take you to get ready for the day?
I can take a shower, do my hair & make-up, get dressed and be ready to go in under 30 minutes!!  And, the thing that takes the longest is always my shower – I love long hot showers!!

2.  Do you have any collections?
I collect cookbooks!!!

3.  What are the ages of your siblings?
Tim – twin (44)
Sam – 38
Mandi – 37

4.  Can you play any musical instruments?
Sadly, NO!!!  I took piano lessons for about 3 years when I was 6-8 and I played the clarinet in 5th grade.  I also can’t carry a tune but that doesn’t stop me from belting out songs when I’m working (cleaning/ironing at venue) and sometimes when I’m running.

5.  Do you have friends that you have known since elementary school?  Jr. High? High School?
The farthest I go back is 9th grade which was actually Jr. High at the time.  We moved a lot growing up!!  I am FB friends with a few people that I knew in 2nd-4th grade but I haven’t seen them in years!!!

6.  If you had to pick your last meal, what would you choose?
I would probably go to Esparzas (our favorite Mexican food place in Grapevine, TX) and have an order of Queso Flameado – basically a lot of cheese with a bit of chicken and veggies – good stuff!!!  Plus a couple Margaritas which is why we loved Esparzas!!!

YUM!!
YUM!!

7.  What is your favorite sport to watch?

8.  Are you “missing” any body parts?
I had my gall bladder removed in 2003 but I still have all the rest of my parts!!!

9.  How many times have you moved?
21 times!!!!  Yikes – I don’t think I’ve ever counted all of my moves before!!!  I’m currently on my record in one place – it will be 10 years the first week of August!!!

10.  Are you type A?
100% YES!!!  My husband might even say I’m A+!!!

Pick any question (or all) and tell me your answer!

Happy Wednesday!!
