13) What are your favorite hobbies?
- blogging (obviously)
- reading (does that even count?)
- photography
- cooking

That’s a hard question. I’m going to go with outgoing, but I definitely need my time alone.

I absolutely adore Rachel McAdams. I cannot wait until The Vow comes out in a few weeks!

Uhh… my week wasn’t too exciting. Perhaps actually making it home in one piece during the snow storm? I think that counts.
18) Do you live near your family or far from them?
Near! My sister and brother in law live about a mile down the road from us (easy baby access!) and our parents live about 15 minutes away. The rest of our family is scattered within a half hour radius. I love it.

Above all else, having faith that everything happens for a reason and I am exactly where I should be in my life right now.
Question: Answer one of the above for yourself!

I just love telling people this: I have two kittens, the cutest things in the world their names are Elaine and Woobachuck (no lie!)
Okay that’s hilarious. Is it pronounced “wu-bah-chuck”?
mhmm
Love this! And your answers!!
I love super close to may family too…:) In fact, we all go to the same church. #15) I feel ya, I am the exact same way. If people were just like me this wouldn’t be a problem…;) Love the note by the way.
I hadn’t heard about “The Vow” until about a week ago, I have NO idea how this is possible. It looks like a great movie to grab a girlfriend and have a girls night out!
I love your greatest attribute! You’re one great girl, Chelsey! Having faith like that is such a blessing! YOU ROCK!
Okay you need to come here NOW and we can go see it.
o yes
Great list and
lululemon wunder unders - that you said they are life changing, okay, I want them. I have some Nike pants that are similar but want to try the W.U.’s now!
I just love them so much - they’re great for everything. Yoga, running, etc - THey’re actually having a warehouse sale in Rosemont next weekend. I can’t wait!
I just went to the warehouse sale here in Ottawa — some great deals, and some REALLLLLLLLY long lines. Wear comfy shoes and bring your patience. And maybe a book
can you give me some examples of the prices so I know what to expect?
A little sad that there isn’t an 8th day in the week for us to hang out.
I’d feed you peanut butter on a spoon and regale you with stories from when I was in a gang.
Didn’t you know I am inventing an 8th day? Its pretty much going to rock.
Save washing up time and just dig into the peanut butter with your fingers
well played.
so cute! Hahha your snacks are some of my faves
I think they should be part of any well balanced diet!
I have the same answer for #18 - except for that pesky last sentence…
And I also love Rachel McAdams. I don’t quite know what it is about her, but I am immediately drawn to her voice and face in any movie she’s in.
bahahah - I had to scroll back up to see what the last sentence was. So funny.
Loved this survey! Nut butter spoon is absolutely one of my favorites. I cannot wait to see the vow. But only because I want to see Channing Tatum.
He is surely an added bonus!
hahah eating peanut butter is a talent we both share
have you ever been on stumble upon? once you have, it’ll be a website to add to that list! #addictive
I have been on stumble upon - mainly when I”ve been “stumbled”. I just couldn’t get into it!
YAY!! Lunch date on Tuesday - WOOP!
I’ll bring the wine, you bring the dessert.
I’m also a grocery shopping lover/nerd. But lets just be honest here, Trader Joe’s can light up a day/life.
It lit up my life like you wouldn’t believe this morning
After learning more we just started going real food eating/organic (and I’m thinking of going vegetarian) two weeks ago. Your blog has been so much help in both areas!
Love your answers - these questions aren’t easy! It must be great having your family so near… mine are all in different countries (well, my sister is in the next province over, so just a 1hour flight away. She’s the closest except for my mom, who is kinda my roommate haha).
Honestly, I don’t do nut butter spoons, because I don’t entirely get what they are. I’ve heard them mentioned 100,000 times but haven’t bothered to look up what they are. Just a spoon of nut butter on its own? There’s a guess for ya. Yeah, I know…shameful!
You’ve got it - dip spoon in peanut butter, scoop, and voila!
It would be pretty awesome if that lunch date could become a reality every week! <3
Ok the pic of Charlie is so damn cute! Love it, and frame it!
Wunder Unders, I live in them! <3
Happy Saturday!
You’re going to be jealous, but Lulu is having a warehouse sale here next weekend - I am PUMPED!!!!
i’m all about the nut butter spoons!
coffee + vanilla soymilk is also amazing. it’s what i have every single morning!
Cute! I feel like a lot of your answers are pretty close to what mine would be! Especially hobbies and Saturday time.
Awww, I would love to have lunch with you next Saturday!
Perfect!
Totally stealing this!!! I love these questionnaires!!!
I’ll answer question:
#16) Actress: Jessica Biel/Jennifer Aniston/Rachel McAdams
Actor: Ryan Reynolds/Chris Hemsworth/Ryan Gosling
soo excited for the vow i love both of them, def bringing tissues wen i go see that.. also made your savory oats tonite and i am obsessed i already am thinkin about them for dinner tomorrow maybe? thanks for making me like savory oats!
I’m so excited about The Vow! I feel like there hasn’t been a good sappy chick flick in theaters in ages! It’s about time!
I’ve been on the fence about getting a pair of wunder unders ($78 for a pair of leggings? Seriously?) but if you can’t live without them they must be seriously worth it! I’m slowly being convinced to buy a pair…
I LOVE surveys!! I may have just stolen this one…
Your Saturdays sound perfect to me, and I definitely share your PB eating talent. Plus I used to be addicted to Grey’s Anatomy!!
Oh, I saw the trailer to “The Vow”. Totally a chic flick, and I wanna see it!!!
I’m so excited for The Vow! I saw the ad in a cinema and I was like: I. Need. To. Watch. That. Raisins and almonds is a snack of choice for me too. I’m gonna do this thing on my blog.
I cannot wait to see The Vow!! I tear up every time I see the preview. That snow storm was treacherous yesterday, it took me 6 and a half hours to drive from Milwaukee. HORRIBLE!! If I could change one thing about myself it would be not to hold grudges or to let the little things get to me and to say to be able to say “I’m sorry” a little bit easier.
Oh my goodness! I’m so sorry you had to drive from so far away on Friday! Yikes!
List a few of your favourite snacks: my paleo banana bread, chocolate protein shakes with banana and pb, and celery with pb & raisins. if i’m after something savoury my current favourite is a can of sardines and steamed broccoli!!! Don’t knock it til you try it
Happy saturday!
do you have a pet?
yes! gwendolyn. she’s a pocket puggle! 1/4 beagle, 3/4 pug, 100% high maintenance, like her mommy
and she has a big puggle crush on your handsome charlie!
Anyone who doesnt eat nut butter from a spoon is a down right lyre!
My favorite ways to spend a Saturday are pretty similar to yours- yoga, eating great food, not having TOO much on the agenda, and quality time with my boys.
I think my answers are pretty similar to your answers for #9. Maybe my iPhone instead of the wunder unders, but it’s a close call (technology, much?!).
Alright, Thursday…it’s a date.
And that is the bessssst picture of Charlie - I want to snuggle up with him!
I’ll go with favorite TV shows…Castle, Once Upon a Time, Modern Family. The list goes on.
you betcha I’ll bring the wine!
Just found your blog. Can’t wait to keep reading!
I heart Charlie! What an adorable face
LOVE that you own up to the “nut butter spoon” as a fav snack.
I think bloggers have to be a little outgoing but in a weird way, don’t you? I always find it interesting that we can share so much on a blog but I still am kind of slow to get to know people in real life! Interesting.
The coolest thing I did this week was to FINALLY sign up for a Wilton cake decorating course (so dorky). I’ve been meaning to take the class and finally just went and registered. Can’t wait!
I go on and on about it, but I have a British Bulldog called George. Georges main aim in life is to go for a ride in the car, and get onto our bed for a sleep. Such a simple life!
Definitely just found your blog, courtesy of Tina, and GO CHICAGO BLOGGERS!
Loving it and definitely adding you to mah Google reader…which by the way, your top 5 websites are basically the exact same as mine. Obsessed!
I loved that you said nut butter spoon haha I do this daily, maybe a little too much!
This was so fun getting to know you better! Your puppy is adorable!!
And I CAN NOT wait for The Vow to come out either! Looks so amazing, yet I have a feeling I might cry during this one! ha
Hot yoga is one of my fav things to do on a Saturday too!
Charlie is such a cutie-pie!!
We adotped a dog named Zeke about 8 months ago and we think he’s an American Pit Bull Terrier - Golden Retriever mix. He just turned three and he has the same ears and wrinkles as Charlie! You can find tons of pictures of Zekey on my blog. They’re honestly the sweetest breed!
