The one and only Dolly Parton. She's a singer, songwriter, and philanthropist- don't get me started on how much I love her Imagination Library program. And she has a sense of humor.
Do you like musicals? Do you have a favorite?

I would probably stay in my field. I'm a flight attendant. (Also in developement/teaching so I don't fly often.) No two days are ever the same and the people I meet are amazing.
If you had to give up one of your 5 senses, what would it be?
Wonderful! My biological dad passed away when i was 4 and I met my step-dad when i was 8. He has always treated me as his daughter and is one of the sweetest, most lovingly fathers a girl could ask for. We are actually more alike than my mother and I are haha.
Q: If you could go back in time just for one day (but not change anything - just witness it). What day/time period would you pick?
I don't know that I have a favorite, but this summer we went whale watching in Boston and it was amazing. I seriously teared up like a creep when we saw the first ones (a mom and a nursing calf!).
What is your favorite smell?

Thanksgiving. My entire family, as well as any friends in town, hang out all day. We cook, drink, eat, smoke cigars, play games and enjoy company. I love that it's not a gift giving holiday where everyone can just be thankful for one another.
@Redpuma119 I fell down the stairs in HS and my backpack zipper broke, so not only did everything fall out, but I had to carry it.
What's your favorite ice cream flavor?
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
We have a winery that I love about 90 minutes away. In the fall they also have apple pucking. My absolute favorite thing is wine weekend because we stay over and order in for dinner and shut off our phones.
This one is a bit crass but one of my favorite questions... if you had to give up one forever would you rather give up cheese or receiving oral sex?

@WillRunForWine21. That is a tough one! But I will have to give up the cheese, bc that would totally help my waistline in the long run, where the other I mean... ;)
Would you rather get to see all the new movies right when they come out, but have to wait till the next season to watch your shows? Or get to watch your tv shows "live" but have to wait for all the movies to come out on dvd?
I'm pretty sure I heard it from older cousins but I was used to them teasing me and lying about stuff so I refused to believe them. Then one Christmas eve I literally heard my parents lugging the presents down the stairs. I wasn't heartbroken. I was still getting presents. I didn't care who they came from. Though I can say all of those years I never noticed that "Santa" and my mom had the exact same hand-writing.
What's the best compliment you have ever received?

After I performed one of the lead roles in the school musical, the father of one of my peers (who was also a music teacher) told me I had the best voice on that stage.
If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life what would it be?
