FAST FACT FRIDAY #6-10

#6 (clearly I should have done this in February)
1.  Do you like Valentine's day? Sure, I can take it or leave it. I enjoyed it more this year because we made it fun for the whole family.
2.  What is one Valentine tradition you have? Matt and I do not buy each other Valentine's Day gifts.
3.  Who do you want to be your valentine? Matt, of course.
4.  What was the funniest valentine you ever received? (blank stare)
5. What do you want to get from your valentine this year? A whole lot of nothing.

#7
1. Do you collect anything? I used to collect teapots. I still have them, and I love them.
2. What's your favorite hobby? Reading. I don't know if you can call it a hobby, but it's what I like to do in my free time.
3. What is your style of organization? I'm a purger, first and foremost. That's my biggest key to staying organized, purging. Overall though, I'm classified as a Thorough Organizer. Meaning, I don't always get caught up in the (non)essential details of a project.
4. If you didn't have any limitations, what would you be passionate about? I hope I would be passionate about serving others. I hope. I let me get in the way of myself a lot though.
5. What hobby have you been thinking about trying, but haven't yet? I would like to sew. I would love to sew like my mom does, and if you know her you know what I'm talking about. I've tried a few small projects here and there, but I haven't taken the plunge yet.

#8
What is your favorite...
1. Fast food restaurant? Chick-Fil-A!
2. Casual dining restaurant? Probably Iggy's. 
3. Expensive restaurant? Melting Pot, definitely.
4. Restaurant that you could go to everyday? Maybe, Zupas. I really love soup.

#9
1. Where is your favorite repeated vacation place? Las Vegas
2.  How long do you like to go on vacation? I think 10 days is the perfect vacation time. Just enough to relax, miss your kids, let them miss you; and just enough to feel ready to go home.
3.  Where did you go on your favorite vacation? Disney World with my family when I was 17.
4.  Where was your most recent vacation? Was Trek a vacation? Technically it filled all the requirements (although it wasn't relaxing). Wait, nope, it would be camping with Tyler and Katy up at Red Fish Lake. That was awesome!
5.  If money were no object, where would you like to go? Western Europe. All of it.
 
#10
1. Do you like to cook? Yes, actually I do. It's a new thing though.
2. What is your favorite dish to make? I enjoy making Chicken Cordon Bleu. It's so satisfying when an involved recipe turns out wonderfully, and your husband eats it like he's eating a bite of heaven. Of course then your kids ask for hotdogs...
3. Do you like cooking for others? Outside my family? No. I do it, but it stresses me out.
4. Are you a baker- or mainly just a taster? I would hardly call myself a baker. I enjoy baking the few things I know will turn out. I do enjoy tasting, a lot. Brings back good memories from growing up in my parent's kitchen. Sneaking around to get a good snip from the bowl. 
5. What food will you NOT cook under any circumstances? I haven't found a food that I feel that negatively towards.  I do not like papaya, so probably that, although if a gun were pointed at my head...
