Getting To Know You

1.  Have you ever been skinny dipping?  No, but I will. Just waiting to get back to this spot at my Aunt's beach home :)

                                                                         (hubs, kids and some nieces/nephews)

2.  If you could choose an exotic vacation destination today, where would you go? I would said England but since it's exotic I will pick Bali

3.  Do you prefer to live in the city or the suburbs?  I never would have known how much I like city life...like a lot. I think we are here to stay.

4.  If you could paint, draw or illustrate any masterpiece in the world, what would it be?  Any of the English country side.

5.  What is your favorite dish to cook when you’re cooking for one?  Tacos and this awesome grilled cheese from Byron Talbot.

6.  Who has recently influenced you in a spectacular way?  My Father, always. He has been so kind and forgiving his whole life, always eager to help others. He is 86 and I miss him so much. And this weekend the wife of one of the Hubs cousin's. She has a tenderness in her and a heart full of faith.

7.  Have you ever considered dating a person who’s younger than you?  If so, how young would you go?  I dated a guy that was 3 yrs younger (he lied about his age) younger guys can be immature but I guess it depends on the guy.

8.  What do you typically wear when you’re at home with no plans to go out?  Shorts or sweats with a tank top

9.  Do you prefer a shower or a bath? I would love to take baths more often but I don't always have the time. Relaxing with a bubble bar from Lush is my idea of awesomeness

10.  When you meet strangers are you outgoing or are you introverted?  Definitely outgoing. I just met two new people @ Target, one lady in the coffee aisle turned out to be from the Motherland :)

Friend Makin’ Mondays: A Little About Me

Hello Monday! I actually don't hate Monday's and this particular weekend I was so busy I was actually looking forward to it (what?!). Our little guy turned Four and like every Mom out there I can believe it, this is why I tried so hard to  enjoy every minute of being with him. Friday the Hubs had the day off too so we spend the day  Downtown shopping  for the supplies for a small gathering, my little guy sure loves NYC and going where all the hustle is. Besides his little gathering and making all the decor by hand ('cause I rock), there was a family affair on Sunday and boy do I enjoy them. Here are some pics of it all:

 Yeap, all made by Moi :) now onto this week's FMM:

A Little About Me

1. Have you ever experienced love at first sight?  not love, but I definitely had my OMG moments *wink*

2. What channel is your TV on most? Discovery ID, which freaks everyone in my home and QVC, HGTV some days, I also tend to watch all my series after the little guy goes to sleep (Hannibal, GOT, Grimm, The Big Bang)

3. Share one quality that you’re proud to have.  I strive to be the best friend I can be, and I always help others. 

4.  Describe your idea of a great evening.  I have two: One in which we can have family and friends over and spend the night laughing and talking all night, relaxing or watching a movie. We love having people over. The other would be going for Dinner, Movie and stroll downtown with the Hubs.

5. If your friends were asked to describe you in three words, which words would they choose?  OCD, Dependable, crazy :) the only reason I know this is because it has been said MANY times to me

6. What is your favorite holiday?  Halloween by far, love it so much and love getting the house decorated for it. Second choice would be Christmas.

7. If you could change one thing that would make your life easier instantly, what would it be?   I would change our Financials, but I am also very blessed that's the only thing that needs work and that we are working on it.

8. What is one healthy food that you crave?  Sushi! hahaha I don't crave many healthy things, some days I want an apple or bananas but I wouldn't call it cravings.

9. Do you wear socks when you sleep?  Yes, I have this pampering routine and one of the things I do is put a rich foot cream and wear cotton socks to bed. Makes my feet feel super soft.

10. Share at least three things for which you are thankful.  My family, having a home and having the heath to work for the things I want in life.
