Since I’m excited about THREE THINGS this weekend, I found a little three things survey to fill in.
Three Ways I Am Still a Kid
1. Barefoot. Any time it is even mildly acceptable to not wear shoes, I will not wear shoes.
2. Grumpy. I get grumpy and stubborn when hungry or sleepy. And if I’m both? I will throw a tantrum.
3. Messy. I can’t eat without spilling something somewhere. Usually multiple times. I need a bib.
Three Ways I Am Already Old
1. Schedule. I get up really early–because I like to.
2. Crafts. Hand me the yarn, I’m about to get my crochet on.
3. Prunes. They are actually really good.
Three of My Everyday Essentials
1. Eggs. Wow, life changed quickly.
2. Hair elastics. It’s ponytail or nothin’.
3. Tea. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, all day at the office.
Three Ways I’m a Stereotypical “Boy”
1. Gym rat. I lift weights, bro!
2. Bugs. I’ll touch them, pick them up, squish them: No big deal.
3. Hygiene. Okay, so I shower regularly (usually…), but when it comes to wearing that same outfit a few too many times without washing it? It happens.
Three Ways I’m a Stereotypical “Girl”
1. Pink. I like it. I wear it. I’ll (eventually) paint my bathroom it.
2. Cooking. You’re not going to keep me out of the kitchen. Or the grocery store.
3. Driving. I don’t like it, I’m bad at it, and don’t even think about asking me to parallel park.
Three Things I Just Can’t Do
1. Oatmeal. I can’t not boil oatmeal over in the microwave.
2. Rice. Half of it is burnt, the other half is a wet mess, I have to throw out the pan because it will never get clean again. How does anyone cook rice?
3. This would have said, “Make an omelet.” But last night? Giant omelet success! I’m so proud of myself.
And the best for last!
THREE THINGS That Are Happening This Weekend
1. Atlanta. Getting out of my city for the weekend and meeting up with Laura!
2. Atlanta. Getting in a real legs day and some official posing practice!
3. Atlanta. Food! Dinner out on Saturday, Taste of Atlanta on Sunday!
Tell me three of your things!
I have that pumpkin spice tea!! I actually have a lot of it lol
And Im with you on the no shoes thing. Growing up, I got stung by a bee almost daily in the summer from running around barefoot in my gmas fields
Haha, I have ridiculous amounts as well! I found it on sale and may have, err, overstocked ;D
Looks like surveys are quite the trend today
! Have the best time in ATL, especially with Laura! Tea is a daily essential for me too…I’m not sure I could function without it! As for being a kid, I still get a kick out of “ants on a log” as a snack!
I love my rice cooker. No more burnt rice.
I wanted to stop in ATL on our drive down to FL but we were stuck in traffic right outside the city for almost an entire DAY. haha. I would love to fly in & explore one day though.
This was so cute! Have a fun time in Hotlanta! Also, you need a rice cooker. Best appliance ever!
awww, YAY – have a great time and give Laura a big hug for me – then make her give you one for me
I am constantly barefoot. I loved spending summers in Hawaii all through childhood and high school – I was barefoot as much as possible there (and they are so laid back that some restaurants don’t care…)
Awwww… I’d love to hug you too. xo
You should move to Australia – everyone walks around barefoot! Seriously, I thought it was normal until my husband (who is Canadian) kept commenting on it. I didn’t do it very often, but people go to the grocery store, shopping malls, etc barefoot. We are a backwards nation, haha
Have fun in Atlanta!
How fun! Can’t wait for your Atlanta update
This is such a fun post. Have a great time in Atlanta Allie.
I would comment on everything else… but YAY for ATL!!!!!! I can’t want to see you.
P.S. I can’t make oatmeal in the micro either.
haha! This was great! And getting up at the crack of dawn because you like it, crocheting and eating prunes don’t make you old…..or am I just trying to convince us both otherwise!
Have an amazing time in Atlanta this weekend! Can’t wait to hear all about it and your posing experience!! Have fun girl!
Aw – I’m so jealous you get to hang with Laura this weekend! Cheer for her at the Taste of Atlanta, I’m sad I’m missing another demo of hers. And have fun!!!
PS – I’m apparently a kid for the same reasons you are. And that I love Disney & Nickelodeon.
Have fun in Atlanta!! That’s super exciting!!! I’m jealous you get to meet Laura!
Also, spectacular omlette!
Sounds like a rad weekend in store!
AHHH I LOVE THIS!! HECK YES TO EGGS
And before all my grain intolerance crap, I totally boiled oatmeal over in the microwave every. single. time. haha Well…now that I think about it…I pretty much mutilate anything that goes into the microwave…
Have an amazing weekend girl, can’t wait to hear about it!
1. I love working out of my public libary, so much character and I have every single book, research article or any of the latest magazines right at hand
2. I love my shih-tzus they are my children, without their cuddles and licks I would be lost
3. I have had a huge obsession with crystalized ginger lately and I need to stop as of yesterday..
Rice and I have had problems too! I just bought a rice cooker (best investment EVER)
Love and Shine CourtStar
What a fun post! I LOVE prunes! I eat 2-3 everyday
I made granola balls with them before, and wow girl they were delicious!!
Have an AWESOME time in Atlanta girl! Can’t wait to hear all about it!!
Lovely post! For your rice (for 1) take a quarter cup of rice and cover with half a cup of water. Add a pinch in for salt and mix in. Bring to the boil uncovered then put the lid on, switch off the stove and in 40 minutes you’ll have cooked rice – if white, or a little bit longer for brown. Remove the lid, fluff the rice with a fork and enjoy.
Hahahahahahahahha:) I loved reading this & smiled all the way through!
we are very similar it is kind of crazy, I have so many reasons why I am still a kid as well (messy, love mail) but also reason that I am an old woman (schedule, prunes are amazing, like quiet evenings at home). I also consider myself more of having boy characteristics than a girl, I honestly think I am still a tomboy at heart.
So glad you’re with me on the prunes! I get funny looks from friends when I offer to share…oh well, more for me ;D
love this post! you make me smile
i’m such a boy! i only washed my hair once this week too. Have fun in atlanta!
Why do I never hear about these things (3 Things weekend) until they’re over?!?! I may try this during the week. The omelette looks Wonderful…especially with the Fiesta Lime!
It’s never too late! And everything’s better with fiesta lime ;D Except maybe dessert. But then again…on ice cream or with chocolate? That just might be a winning combo…
Have a fabulous weekend!! I need to find that chai green tea – sounds awesome!
You do need to! I’m drinking more of it right now–it’s the perfect chai tea, not too strong but still lots of flavor.
Hope you had a fantastic time in Atlanta! Looking forward to reading about it
This little survey was really fun to read, it’s nice to learn more about you! I get grumpy when I’m hungry too, it happened this morning with Tom haha. I also like to schedule, as you know, lists are my friends
I HATE MAKING RICE.
