I have another fun little get to know me post for you all today! Q&A with yours truly! I saw this previously on Dayna and Amanda's blog and just had to do it! I hope you enjoy learning a bit more about me!
1. What time did you get up this morning?
5 AM! I leave my house around 6:20 and I hate feeling rushed!
2. How do you like your steak?
I am not a steak person, red meat is just not my thing! GIve me a nice piece of fish and I am one happy girl!
3. What was the last movie you saw at the theater?
I want to say it was Sarah's Key, and despite being very sad and thought provoking I loved it!

5. If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be?
I would love to live somewhere that has lots of my favorite things. Such as the arts, good local restaurants interesting entertainment and the people I love and care about the most!
Italy would be pretty neat, or Chicago! I will just have to wait and see where my path takes me!

Oatmeal, is my breakfast staple my morning doesn't feel complete without it! I change up the toppings daily, but usually you will find a big scoop of peanut butter on there!
7. Do you wear glasses or contacts?
I wear glasses when I read or work on the computer.
8. What food do you despise?
Hmmm off the top of my head the only thing I can think of is red meat! I am sure if I sat and thought about it for longer I could come up with some more!
9. Favorite Place to Eat?
. It depends on where I am at and what food I feel like eating! I love local restaurants. When Mark and I travel we like to find the little dives (this is something he has gotten me into)! One of my all time favorite places to eat was Zest! in Indianapolis!
They had by far the best brunch! In Rochester I love the Red Wood Room!

And heels I love heels, I will pick heels over any other shoe to wear!
13. Where would you visit, this weekend, if you had the chance?
Columbus Ohio to see Mark! Good news though he booked his flight to Minnesota for New Years! But if Mark could go with me, I would for sure go to Napa Valley (I have been dying to go there)!
14. How many tattoos do you have?
Nope, none! My dad said if I ever got one he would disown me! Harsh but motivation not to get one!

Peanut butter in oatmeal?! Salsa on salads?! You've just introduced two new things for me to try :)
ReplyDeleteHow fun...loved this!
ReplyDeleteCute! I must do this too! :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute! And I love the picture of your Golden. I have a soft spot for Golden Retrievers!
ReplyDeleteMy parents said the same thing about tattoos and I am so glad now!
ReplyDeleteI can't count the number of things we have in common!!! Amazing :) So glad we're bloggy friends!
ReplyDeleteI love this idea! So much fun! I've danced forever too and totally miss it! That pointe show photo is so cute. My studio did a show where every dance had a different color pointe shoe- that was m favorite! xo
ReplyDeleteYum those pizza toppings sound good!!
ReplyDeleteSo cute. I loved getting to know you a little better. I wish I liked to run!
ReplyDeleteI've never tried peanut butter in oatmeal! I don't et fast food either. It's far and few between. My fast food is Panera bread lol!!
ReplyDeleteI love putting salsa on salads! So good and so much better for you than dressing. I also eat oatmeal pretty much every day. I'll have to try the peanut butter. I bet Nutella would be good too, but probably cancels out the healthy part. haha…and same on fast food. Chipotle is yummy!
ReplyDeleteAh, we are so similar! But I do love red meat, and my dad's not an ER doc (boo!). And you should definitely go to Napa - it's so beautiful and fabulous. The Food Network is the best. I am loving their newest show Chef Hunter - so good!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great day! XOXO
Great idea.. I'll consider doing a post like this too.. so fun. I love a scoop of peanut butter in my oatmeal too, although I don't eat breakfast daily. Favorite Fast Food is hands down - Taco Bell. I love it since I was 14. Ice Cream - Haagen Daaz Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. If I could live anywhere, I'd wanna live in NYC, not 10 minutes away. Also would love to live in London or Paris someday, just for like a year. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove this! So fun! I only recently started wearing jeans often.... I am completely a dress person no matter the season too! And I've been dying to visit Napa too!
ReplyDeleteI always wanted to dye my pointe shoes. You would have been the coolest kid in class if we danced together. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat questions!! I love the background photo for your computer, very cute. I'm def. a dress girl too! I love your answer for where you would like to live. We have pretty much the same requirements!
ReplyDeleteok we can be tv watching buddies because i watch the same shows and oh we can eat that incredible graeters ice cream while we are at it! and your hair in the photo of you two dancing is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteFun questions and answers! My dad is a doctor and used to work in the ER too, AND he also told me if I got a tattoo he wouldn't pay for my college ha!
ReplyDeleteLove the shot of her dog. So cute. xo
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Graters. Hands down the best! I'm from Indiana and will be there this summer, I'm going to have to try out Zest!
ReplyDeleteI just saw Sarah's Key--such a brilliant and sad movie. Loved learning more about you :)
