This is actually something I did on Facebook a couple of years ago, of course I’ve changed the answers but I figured this was a good place for this kind of post! Are you interested in doing one too? I would love to read your “getting to know me” on your own blog!
1. What time did you get up this morning? um…. 10ish?

5. If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be? I am starting to be more ‘okay’ with the area we live in now, but I’d want a large house no matter where it was. A kids/tv room, a living/tv room, a craft room, a large bedroom for Kat and Sis (because they need the space), a bedroom for Var, one for Lisi and Risi (or maybe one for each if they decide sharing isn’t actually that great of an idea), a good sized kitchen, 2 preferably 3… maybe 3.5-4 bathrooms, a gameroom (I want an Air Hockey table, and a Pool table!), Indoor pool and hottub. >.> I wouldn’t want the house to be insanely far out of town, on narrow roads, up on a mountain/large hill, or down by the lake.

I like your answer to number 1. That sounds like something I would say and I love Nutella! I tried to create one of these before but never knew what questions to ask myself. =(

Thankfully my S/O was home that day and I got to ‘sleep in’ after my initial wake up with the baby at about 5am! 😉
Liliana Marsden says
Loved getting to know you. We agree on a few. I love Italian and Japanese cuisines. I don’t have breakfast though. I don’t know in which country I would like to live. I lived in three. Born in Argentina, lived 35 years in England and for the last year in Spain. The three have different things that attract me to them. I sometimes miss England so much.
Well that’s life.

I’ve never had the chance to even go to another country, so I am jealous of your travels!
Have you gone back to visit England since you miss it so?
Robin (Masshole Mommy) says
Wow, that is a wicked old car – does it still run ok? And you slept THAT late. I haven’t seen 10 am since long before I had kids.
aoikasan says
LOL! Yea, thankfully it was my S/O’s day off and I got to sleep in after my initial middle of the night wake up with the baby. 😉
As for the age of the car, well… I’ve had older before this. Yes it does run very well!
Pauline C. @ TwelveSkip.com says

My favorite cuisine is of course, Filipino, Chinese and Italian. My favorite colors are earth tones, I have 3 kids, and the last book I read is James Patterson’s London Bridges. Love these challenges. There used to be a lot on Facebook, now there’s none.
