Old School Blogging is back and this month’s topic is ABC’s. Elaine of The Miss Elaine-ous Life is hosting with Jennifer and if you’re looking for some blogging inspiration, link up!
A. Attached or Single?
Very much attached.
B. Best Friend?
I know I’m expected to say my husband and he is the person I am closest to, but I have amazing girlfriends too and my favorites are the ones that lift me up, make me laugh while supporting me in all that I do.
C. Cake or pie?
Cake. I ate six slices at a wedding once.
D. Day of choice?
Monday. I know I’m in the minority on this one, but I like fresh starts and beginnings.
E. Essential Item?
iPhone.
F. Favorite color?
Navy blue.
G. Gummy bears or worms?
Haribo GoldBears and there is a bag in my purse right now.
H. Hometown?
I grew up overseas and don’t really have a “hometown”, but I currently live in Newport Beach, California.
I. Favorite Indulgence?
Working out followed by a chocolate, almond croissant that I don’t have to share with a soul (or vice versa, probably the smarter way to enjoy the latter).
J. January or July?
January for the same reason I love Mondays (see D.).
K. Kids?
One awesome little boy.
L. Life isn’t complete without?
Books, laughter, wine, my son, travel…

August 4, 2007.
N. Number of brothers/sisters?
One sister.
O. Oranges or Apples.
Both please, but I eat a Granny Smith almost every day.
P. Phobias?
Can’t think of any off hand. I wouldn’t like to be locked in a room with them, but I really don’t mind spiders or snakes.
Q. Quotes?
For as long as I can remember, I have loved and collected quotes. Choosing a favorite is downright impossible, but I have always liked this one very much:
R. Reasons to smile?
My son, of course, a new episode of Man Men, having dinner made for me, the feeling I get after a great workout and a sleeping puppy at my feet.
S. Season of choice?
Summer.
T. Tag 5 People.
How about 4? Coreen, Katie, Natalie, Poppy.
U. Unknown fact about me?
V. Vegetable?
Any but beans. I’m really into Brussel sprouts right now.
W. Worst habit?
Speeding and occasionally texting in the car (it’s illegal in California).
X. Xray or Ultrasound?
Oooh… ultrasounds!
Y. Your favorite food?
Anything but pie.
Z. Zodiac sign?
Cancer. My birthday is this month!
Come play along! Copy and paste the questions here, write your post and link up with Elaine!
Kristen says
That is a great photo from yesterday! You always seem to look like joy is bursting out of you in your photos with family and friends. It makes me happy to see that. Also, ultrasounds ROCK!
Elaine A. says
You look so happy in you wedding photo, I love it!
That’s a great quote. And I’m all about brussel sprouts lately too! Yum!
Thanks for playing along, my friend!
Robbie says
Love your pictures! You look so happy. I am an anti-pie ite too.
Alison says
I love your photo with Lucas, and I love your outfit! (I’m really into stripes these days)
I also like your philosophy about Mondays and Januarys. xo
Katie E says
I *wish* working out was part of my indulgence – I just skip straight to the treat
I’m ready for a new episode of Mad Men tonight – I love new episodes of my favorite shows.
I think texting while at a stoplight kind of doesn’t count – that’s what I tell myself at least.
Happy birthday this month!
Robin | Farewell, Stranger says
6 slices of wedding cake? I like your style!
How do you eat Brussels sprouts? I hate them cooked but I found an awesome recipe for a salad that has raw ones.
Martine | WAHM. Wife. Blogging Belle. says
Chocolate-almond croissants are LOVE. 🙂 I would have that right after my own indulgence of spending a day at the spa! Haha!
Jennifer says
I have tried to eat brussel sprouts several different ways, and I just can’t do it. Which is odd because I love cabbage and they look like mini-cabbages.
Heather says
I love your philosphy on your day of choice, it totally makes sense. I am a horrible speeder. I have been working on it. Really I have.
Lady Jennie says
I love that wedding photo of you.
I like navy blue too, especially to wear. But I find it hard to find clothes in that color for some odd reason. Black should be out as we get older, and navy – in.
Jackie says
I love the picture of you and your husband! So happy and full of love.
You’re the 2nd person to mention Haribo GoldBears… now I have to find them and try them.
Leah says
You are into brussel sprouts right now? Who are you? Meh! What kind of cake was it that you had six slices of?
Maureen@ScoopsofJoy says
Your wedding picture just make me smile so wide. So much love and joy. Love the picture of you and your handsome young man too 🙂
Poppy says
If I didn’t have kids, I’d eat cake for dinner – on Mondays.
Jessica says
I now have a craving for cake and chocolate….
Katie says
All I can say is you had me at Chocolate Almond Croissants! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm lol
chnlove is it a fraud says
Their conclusion, right after extended months of meetings and study, was that prostitution ought to be legalized in San Francisco. Even though this was welcome news to sexworker activists and advocates, points did not, inside the end, change a great deal. If something, arrests of prostitutes elevated to get a although as the report gathered dust; 5 years later, the profession remains illegal in San Francisco. Evidently, legalized prostitution is also marginal a result in for correct public help, even in this most historically liberated of cities. No matter if this selection is just hypocritical or cannily strategic immediately after all, prostitution certainly accounts to get a healthy percentage with the vice squad’s price range no one can say. In a culture that sells sex on almost each Tv channel, the actual if chnlove scam story of modern prostitution is much a lot more complex and significantly less lurid than cable’s familiar voyeurvids featuring bragging pimps and shivering ‘hos. What most Americans assume they know about prostitution is heavily influenced by stereotypes about visible street hookers (having a tiny Xaviera “” Hollander thrown in). Street prostitutes get media and social scientists’ focus because the problems they endure arrest, violence, drug involvement, poverty, at times coercion are true difficulties in need of resolution. Then you will find the challenges they may be stated to cause: a nosedive in home values (despite the fact that exactly where, in today’s San Francisco, is the fact that a problem?), noise and litter, related crimes. Nobody seems to want visible prostitutes in their backyard, despite the fact that quite a few of these social issues may very well be conveniently addressed by legalization
