Kay, I had answered the Christmas tag but didn’t get back to blogging in time to post it before Christmas so if anyone’s REALLY interested in those answers let me know but for now I’ll post the A-Z tag answers for Kim:
A – Available or single: Neither
B – Best friend: Jill
C – Cake or pie: Are cupcakes not an option? Yellow cake w/ lots of buttercream frosting. My only real sweets weakness
D – Drink of choice: Milk
E – Essential item you use everyday: I’ll go with a similar item to Kim’s eyelash curler, for me it’s mascara.
F – Favorite color: I don’t think i have a favorite. Lately I especially love green, a deep rich color green but I also have been a big fan of orange for quite some time now and the perfect shade of pale blue is way up there on the list too.
G – Gummy bears or worms: Neither. Anything that squirmy and squishy has no business being a candy in my book.
H – Hometown: Holland, Michigan
I – Indulgence: Most recent indulgence would be a bottle of this. Had been out for a couple weeks and it’s amazing how happy I am just to have soft healthy hair again.
J – January or February: January, the whole ‘new beginnings’ aspect of it plus my birthday’s in January.
K – Kids & names: not of the human kind. Koda (my cavalier spaniel) and Tori (my himalayan cat) if you count them. Actually working on a LO of the two of them for an upcoming magazine assignment so you’ll get to see them soon.
L – Life is incomplete without? My faith and some of the most amazing supportive friends anyone could ever ask for
M – Marriage date: May 28th
N – Number of siblings: 4
O – Oranges or apples: Apples
P – Phobias or fears: spiders, snakes and rodents. Ewwww!
Q – Fave quote: "Dwell in possibility" Emily Dickinson – I’m just going to leave Kim’s answer since it’s on a plaque above my door and it’s definitely one of my favorites too. :)
R – Reason to smile: Tough one to answer lately. Most recent thing that made me smile is the adorable photo of Eva and Isa on their Christmas card.
S – Season: Wouldn’t really want to give up any of them. One of the things I love about Michigan.
T – Tag 3 or 4 people: I’m so behind on blogging that I’m probably the last one to do this one. Anyone who hasn’t yet consider yourself tagged and link me so I can check out your answers. :)
U – Unknown fact about me: In my bathroom, all the bottles (shampoo, conditioner, face wash, etc) have to be facing the same direction if they’re out, in the shower or on a shelf. Always facing forward so you can see the front of the packaging. And ideally the packaging should all coordinate with the bathroom. I acknowledge the wierdness of this as it was actually supposed to be included with my wierdness list a while back but never got around to taking a picture to include in the post.
V- Vegetable you don’t like: Can’t decide between brussel sprouts or asparagus. YUCK!
W – Worst habit: impatience – another one where I’m just going to leave Kim’s answer since it definitely fits.
X – Xrays: I can’t think of any other than dental x-rays off hand.
Y – Your fave food: Chicken Club Brunch Ring (modified recipe from Pampered Chef) Just made some the other night. Yummy! :) Aside from that I’m pretty much always in the mood for Italian.
Z – Zodiac sign: Aquarius

Hey that Chicken Club Ring looks delightful…love that Pampered CHef, don’t you?!? :D
As for the bottles in the bathroom, I feel the same and like a an arrangement in a size order too….maybe we DO have OCD! 80
Here’s my A-to-Z MeMe: http://egglife.blogspot.com/2006/12/to-z-meme.html How fun.
Mmmm, the Chicken Club Ring from PC – love it! And yours looks yummo, too!!! Also, I understand the need to move past the “dark days” and on to sunnier things. I’ve been in a dark, dark chasm for about a year – and I desperately needed to blog about the good stuff to keep from drowning in the bad. I would occasionally give a bit of info about how bad it was – solely so my “web friends” who are pray-ers would do so for me. :) I’ll pray that you continue to feel the sunshine on your face. I totally understand. May 2007 be better for you – and me, too. :)
Love those soldered pendants, too – and have not done them for the same reason — did you know that Ranger Inks is now making pre-made “frames” where you can just drop in your finished slide “sandwich”? :-)
Let me find a link — hold on! :-D
