Ok, so how about this.  I like the 11 questions and I'll only answer those as I think they will reveal alot about me. (Yeah, I just made up my own rules)


1. Are you currently doing what you want to do in life?
Semi. And what I mean by that is I'm doing it on a semi-part time basis but I'm working on making it full time on a professional level.  I'm a skincare enthusiast and a writer. And just one of the things I'd like to do is to write about skincare from a professional standpoint as a certified, licensed and practicing esthetician.

2. What is your absolute favorite way to have fun?
Anything that involves music.  I love to dance and party.  My father was a DJ and huge music-lover. Music has been such a large part of my life and I can never go a day without listening to music. I can party alone or with a group--doesn't matter as long as I've got some great tunes, I'm having a great time.

3. How many siblings do you have and what birth order are you?

I have an older brother and a sister-cousin.  Sounds incestuous but I assure it's not what you may think. My boo, my sis, my very bestfriend, Jenn is my cousin but we grew up really close.  So close that our mother's used to dress us alike. I'm 9 months older than she so in a way I'm the middle child.

4. What's your fantasy car.

Porsche Panamera.  If that's not the most gorgeous machine ever, I don't know what is. It's a family car but a sports car through and through and it's just too fly for words. I need one in white with peanut butter leather if anyone is willing to donate. :-) I'm just sayin'.


5. Where is the last place you vacationed?
On our last vacation, we hopped three locations while on a cruise.  Miami, Key West & Cozumel, Mexico.  I had an absolute blast.

6. Do you wear jewelry and do you prefer gold or silver?

YES! I love jewelry. I like both gold and silver.  I have a neutral skin tone so they both look great against my skin.  

7. What's the best thing you've ever eaten?

I think it's safe to say that I'm a foodie and to answer this question it'd be hard to choose just one place or one dish. There are far too many from which to choose and I absolutely cannot name one without naming a few others. I've been many places and have had the opportunty to taste some awfully good food.
I'll give you the top 4:
1. Enchiladas de Mariscos at Lauriol Plaza (D.C.)
2. Calamari Salad at China Grill--that may have just been because I was with child at the time but at the time it was HEAVENLY, lol (Miami)
3. Pollo Saltado at Puerta Sagua (Collins Ave, Miami)
4. Chicken Souvlaki with Tzatziki and Briam & Rice w/Feta (Buffalo) (Lordie, this made me want to slap my in-laws)

8. What colors is your bathroom decorated with?
Brown and I hate it! The bathroom was originally decorated brown and cream, it looked so rich and pretty but over time and with houseguest destruction--don't get me started--it is now just brown.  Come April, everything will have been changed though so it's not sweat.

9. How often do you exercise?
Not much anymore. Y'all, I fell off the wagon but I've stopped being a lazy bum and picked back up earlier this month.


10. Do you want children? If you have children do you want more?
I have a two year old now and I want two more but Chief is saying he'll only allow one more. Mmmhmm.  You know what they say about men being the head.  That means that we are the neck and we can turn the head wherever we choose. ;-)

11. What is your least favorite food? If you had to eat it for 1 month for a million dollars could you?
Least favorite food, Lima beans, hands down.  1 month = 1 million!? OF COURSE!  I'd find some way to season them up to make them edible. After all, they're good for ya!


I want my tagged bloggers to answer the same questions that I answered here. :-) And I'm only tagging 3!


1. Marina!
2. Jenelle!
