Who am I???

I saw this on a friends blog that I follow ( http://kellyfereday.blogspot.com/ ) and of course thought it would be SO much fun. How many of these questions did you already know my answers to???


1. Favorite Color:

Probably blue except during football and basketball season, and then it's a VERY strong, deep, and dark R-E-D! (GO CARDS)


2. Favorite food that you make:
Hmmm....my husband would probably say chicken casserole, it's quick and easy and delicious...but I think my favorite would be baked ziti. I LOVE pasta's. :)




3. Favorite Food Network Chef:

Um...I don't really watch Food Network that often, but I do enjoy watching Curtis Stone on Biggest Loser. :) such a hottie!!


4. What is the last beauty product you bought, and are you liking it?:
Uh....well, my brother-in-law just left his job at Sephora, so I haven't bought any beauty products in quite some time. But the last one I got from him is Sephora brand under eye cream. It's supposed to help with eye wrinkles (which I'm not even sure if I have yet), and I have no idea if it is working, but I ADORE the smoothness of it, and how soft it makes around my eyes feel.

5. What are your top 3 beauty products:


Wow....um...if I could only leave the house with 3 products on it would most likely be my foundation, blush, and mascara! I don't typically wear a lot of make-up for my day-to-day stuff...I definitely do it up for special occasions....but something I definitely do NOT leave the house without is my Dove frizz control! Especially in this Kentucky Humidity!



7. Essie or OPI?
OPI...I just adore the names of their polish! HA!



8. How often do you workout?
Well that is just hilarious....if you count carrying around a chunk of a 1 year old then all day every day! But if you don't then that's gonna be a once in a blue moon. I coach cheerleading, so I do stretch and warm up and cool down with the girls...so I guess in the fall I'm up to a whopping 2 days a week? LOL



9. Iced or hot coffee?
Depends....in the mornings there is nothing better than sitting on a screened in porch or on our back deck with a nice hot cup of coffee (2 splenda's & a little milk)...but when it's hot a muggy out I love an iced coffee in the afternoon. Gives me a jolt to get through the rest of my day, and they're just so darn tasty!


10. Favorite celebrity couple:
Oh....I don't know how I'm going to pick just 1....I guess I have to go with Will & Jada Smith. And by the way, I am DEVASTATED that there are rumors going around that they're separated. I just adore them and their family. I always try to watch any interview that they are in because I love hearing them talk about not only their love for each other, but also their family. And even on Oprah they came and brought not only Will & Jada's mom's, but also Will's ex-wife! I mean the love that is in that family just astounds me.



12. Place you have never been but would like to go:
Australia!


Ever since I was a little girl and watched that one cartoon with the Koala Bears....I have always wanted to go.


13. What gift did you get from your wedding registry that you get the most use out of?:


While we obviously use our sheets and towels daily, something that we received that is fun that we get the most use from is probably our iced tea maker. LOL! It is SO freakin easy. Just pour in some water, fill the thing with ice, add a tea bag, and viola in 5 minutes you have some iced tea.


14. Biggest pet peeve?


Hmmm...liars...or people who hear lies or false statements about someone and don't have the gall to stand up for the truth. Talk about irritating.



15. Best guilty pleasure:
Lifetime Movie Network. Sucks me in every time...I also love SoapNet!












16. Favorite book:
The Notebook. No matter how many times I read it, and know the outcome I still love it oh so much. I am also a big (HUGE) fan of the Harry Potter series. :)




17. Do you subscribe to any magazines?:
Not on purpose...somehow I seem to receive Southern Living. I'm wondering if someone is subtly calling me out on my lack of cooking at home.


18. Favorite Halloween costume?:

Hmm...for me it would probably be the year I dressed up as a little devil. I was like a sophomore in college I think. I was still teeny tiny, and had some fabulous red pumps, red tights, and some teeny tiny red outfit thing...something I would NEVER let my own daughter wear! The dogs dress up as Mickey and Minnie Mouse...that's pretty cute. And Benny was just about the cutest pumpkin you ever did see last year. :)

19. Drink of choice?:
H2O baby....H2O


20. What advice would you give your 17 year old self?
Don't follow the crowd. Be a leader, stand up for what you believe in, pray...not just to God, but with God...daily.
