Five Question Friday!!

It's Friday!!  How exciting!!  I  have a busy and fun weekend planned and I'm excited to get it started.  Can I get a shout out for Columbus Day!!!  Woo - hoo!!!  A three-day weekend ALWAYS tops my list of super spots of happiness.  I know that Columbus wasn't the best person around, if you really look into it, but I do love a holiday and I LOVE the fact that I'm one of the few people who have the day off.  I actually don't have any plans on Monday, but tonight we have a football game and then Saturday hubs and I are heading to the flea market (I'm not really a flea market person but there is an amazing array of yummy Latin American food stands in the back that we can't wait to try) and then we plan on playing a few games of bowling.  Fun times!

Before I say toodles, I decided to link up with My Little Life and participate in her Five Question Fridays.  So, let's have it!


  1. What do you listen to while driving?Hmm, it depends on who else is in the car and where I'm going.  At 6:10am when I'm driving to the bus stop and at 6:10pm when I'm driving home, I like to listen to NPR.  They usually have good and interesting programs on at that time and I enjoy listening to something worthy.  If hubster is in the car then we're listening to one of the mixed CDs I made him - so it's either Eye of the Tiger, Air Supply, Everything I Do I Do for You, or Hotel California.  Yeah, we're the epitome of coolness.
  2. What is your least favorite thing about fall?Although I love fall, I don't have to think too hard about this.  My least favorite thing is that it's colder and reminds me that winter is coming.  I hate the cold.  I also don't like raking leaves, so that's a big negative too.  Right now I'm also hating the fact that I have NO fall clothes.

  4. What does your dream house look like, inside and out?I haven't thought too much about the inside of my house, but I know I LOVE bungalow style homes.  They are so cute and small and comfy looking.  Like this one:
    
    I am in LOVE with this house
    I know it's really small, but I don't care.  I think it's so perfect.  And here's a kitchen that I found that I love too:

    
    you're the perfect kitchen for me!
    I know it's small too, and everyone dreams of a huge kitchen, but it's perfect for my small, little house.
    My dream house would be located in the country, in the middle of lots of land.  So we could have some cows and chickens.  And maybe I could have a vegetable garden.  That would be so great.
  5. Would you ever own a minivan?
    I know that minivans are despised these days and everyone loves SUVs, but not me.  I don't know if I'll ever get a minivan, but I'm not opposed to them.  Especially if I have a few kids and pets - they are the way to go.  However, I don't really like SUVs because I find them wasteful - not that minivans are much better though.  So, not really sure.  I don't think about cars/minivans/SUVs very much - I can't really afford any kinda car right now!
  6. Do you wash new clothes before wearing them?
    No.  A lot of people think that's gross, but A LOT of times I wash them and they get ruined and then I never had a chance to wear them.  So, at least if I wear it once before washing it, I've gotten to wear it that one time.  So, that's my main reason.  And, I'm usually too impatient to wait for the laundry to get done before donning my new clothes!  However, if I ever had kids I'll definitely wash their clothes before they can wear them because what if there are pesticides and gross stuff on them - NOT ok for kiddies.
So, there you have it - a small glimpse into my life! Hope you have a great weekend!


What are your plans for the weekend?

  2. I feel the same way about fall meaning winter is coming. I am not a cold weather fan and would pass on winter all together if I could. Also, I am the same way about clothes. I don't want to miss the chance to wear something because my washer killed it right away.

  3. This weekend is Canadian Thanksgiving so yes, a turkey will be sacrificed for the cause. But it is an excellent excuse to vaccuum! Lots of people will be over and the noise will be off the charts -- and I won't be happier!

  8. Thank you SO much for answering my questions on my blog! Your advice was SO helpful. I'm definitely going to look into buying some underarmor. It's fortunate that I'm only 5'0", so I could shop in the kids section and save a little bit of money. :] I'm also going to try making sticky buns soon (with yeast)! Thanks so much for your help.. and for being such an awesome blogger friend. You are beyond encouraging and are an amazing woman! :D
