Re: Afternoon Poll!
1. Do you have a sweet tooth, or a taste for salt? I have such a HUGE sweet tooth! None of the women in my family are able to pass up on something sweet. At this very minute, I'm thinking of what I'd like for dessert tonight (date night)!
2. If you could live in any other era/decade, which would you choose? I would choose the 40s or 50s. I love the big dresses (think I Love Lucy), and the simplicity of everything. I know they had their problems at that time, but ours seem much more complicated.
3. What was the last book you read? The last book was The Help. I'm currently reading The Paris Wife.
4. Favorite magazine? Glamour
5. Do you prefer gossip or news? GOSSIP...it's my version of news.
6. Did you name your car? If so, what name? Yes, her name is Alexus (it's a lexus...clever, huh?)
7. If you could change/improve one thing about your home, what would it be? I would hire someone to do landscaping in the front and back yards. We have a large yard and it's so hard and time consuming to maintain. If we weren't spending so much OOP money on IVF, we would definitely redo our yard.
8. Weekend look: makeup or no makeup? Usually makeup, depends on the days events
9. Sunny days or stormy (not severe) weather? Sunny!
10. What is your favorite website (besides thebump, obviously)? Maybe People.com or E!
