32nd Street Blog Parade!

Abigail is doing a fun blog party this week and she has these fun interview questions to answer. You can join in too! Click on the button to find out all the details. Abigail is the one who designed my blog and website. She is super talented in so many ways and I just love her! These are great questions and I really had to put some thought into them because some of them were things I'd never thought about before!

1. What's your favorite time of the day, and why?

My favorite time of the day is at night, after everyone goes to bed. I like to sit in the living room with my laptop, catch up on blogs, and watch "The Young and the Restless". I usually stay up way too late because I enjoy the time by myself so much!

2. If health wasn't an issue, what food could you live off of?

I could probably live off of mexican food. I love chips, hot sauce, and cheese dip. I love tortillas and fajitas and quesadillas, sour cream, guacamole, cheese, and cilantro. Yummy!!!

3. If you could have one wish granted (besides wishing for more wishes), what would it be?

That Christians would wake up and realize that WE are the answer to our own prayers. We wonder why there is poverty, hungry children, unsafe drinking water, orphans, and homelessness and we ask God why He hasn't done anything about it. I believe He has already done something about it.........He has given US the resources, talent, and tools within the Christian churches to solve all of these problems, but WE have chosen not to. My wish is that every Christian (myself included) would take what they are passionate about, what they are talented in, and use it not for their own gain, but rather to spread the Gospel and be the church that God intended for us to be. I just got done reading "The Hole in Our Gospel" by Rich Stearns and it addresses this very issue........it is one of the best books I've ever read!

4. What's one thing that you get teased about a lot?

I've never really been teased about anything, except for my accent. People have always loved to mimic my Texas accent, especially those who aren't from this area, and it is so aggravating!

5. If you could choose one movie, book, or TV show to spend your life in, which would you pick? What type of character would you be?

This one was hard. I loved the book, "The Shack", and it would be so awesome to be the character Mack from the book, and get to interact with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in the way that they were portrayed in that book.

6. If you could have one talent that you don't already have, what would it be?

I would be a singer/songwriter, who plays the guitar or fiddle.

7.If money were no object, where would you go on vacation?

Hawaii

8. If you were an awesome singer, which genre would you sing?

Christian (like a bluegrass/country/folksy sound)

9. If you could have a $10,000 shopping spree to one store, what would it be?

I think I'd have to pick Target. They have pretty much everything I could ever want, even a Starbucks inside. :D Plus, it would take me a long time to spend that much money at Target.

10. If you could live in any point in time, when would it be?

I think I would want to live in the 50's. I love that it was a time when it was accepted for women to stay home with their children, keep their houses, and take care of their husbands. There wasn't as much technology to take over their lives and it seems like it was such a simpler time. I think I would love wearing the dresses and styles that they used to have then too.

11. If every outfit in your wardrobe had to be one color, what would it be?

As much as I love hot pink, if I could only choose one color, I'd probably be boring and pick black. It's classic, slimming, and never goes out of style.

12. If you were one of the seven dwarves, which one would you be?
(Doc, Grumpy, Sneezy, Sleepy, Bashful, Happy, or Dopey)

Probably Bashful. I am such a quiet person in real life. I think my lack of socializing and talking in real life is why I write SO much here on my blog! I've always been quiet though. I am an only child and my Mom was a huge talker. I remember just sitting in my room, listening to her talk on the phone for hours to her friends. I also remember sitting at my Meme's kitchen table and listening to them talk. That's one of my favorite memories. I love to observe people and listen to their stories.

13. What's the last album you listened to?

Leeland's "Opposite Way"

14. What's something we'd be surprised to know about you?

That I used to hate coffee!
