What is your favorite food?
That's like THE most difficult question because I love so many foods. Does
"foods" include dessert? I think it will be easier to not include dessert, so top 5 I
can narrow it down to: pad thai (with shrimp), perogies, apple salad, mac n
cheese, and popcorn. And if I absolutely had to choose one of those, I think it
would be pad thai.
Would you rather read minds or be invisible?
I would rather read minds if the being invisible means all the time, but if I get to
turn on and off the invisibility then I would rather have that power. Reading
minds would not be fun, but could be used for good causes possibly. And being
invisible all the time would kind of suck, but if I got to turn it off and on, would be
awesome.
Describe your perfect vacation
My perfect vacation would be have a little bit of everything - sight seeing, museums/education/history, relaxation, exercise, something fancy... no matter what
the location. I want to travel everywhere, so I couldn't pick one perfect spot, but
I really enjoy when it's not all one thing. I get too bored if its all relaxing, but I
also get too tired and don't feel like it was a real vacation if I do too many outdoorsy/physical activities. And I like dressing up and going out, but I also need to
feel like I learned something and wouldn't want to be all dressy everyday. It has
to be a perfect balance! And I always want to have tried something new, like at
least one sort of crazy or unusual

What quirky habits do you have?
Keeping the front door locked at all times, and checking it often.
Overwatering and killing every plant I've ever had.
Inserting movie quotes in to regular conversation.
Marathon watching tv seasons episodes.
Would you rather be able to only be able to whisper or only be able to shout?
I would rather be able to only shout rather than whisper.
Favorite childhood memory:
Growing up on a full fledge farm my favorite chore was feeding the chickens. We would cut
the bottom off a water jug and use it as a grain scooper. I would remove cap off the full
scooper and run as fast as I could down the barn leaving a trail of grain behind me. Chickens
would be running/flying from every direction to get to the feed. I would turn around at the
end of the barn and there would be a perfect line of 40 to 50 chickens down the center of the
barn. It was a fun sight to see....
