I've been tagged...

I've been watching this "tag" thing on my friends' posts and today I saw my name as next in line, so here goes...

1. Q: Best thing you cooked last week:
I made spaghetti sauce from scratch, chopping garlic (I don't have a garlic press), herbs, the whole nine yards. I don't usually do this sort of thing, but I got a cooking bug and off I went. I also made balsamic vinagrette salad dressing from scratch to put on my salad. It was a good cooking day. And it was AWESOME! The kids inhaled it. Unfortunately, Dave was out of town so only got to enjoy it as leftovers.

2. Q: If time, money, and babysitting were no option, where would you go, and with whom?
I love to travel, and I've always wanted to see Italy (Rome and Florence). But I wouldn't stop there, I think I'd also hit Switzerland, the French Riviera (and Paris), Austria, Germany, Belgium, then on up to the Netherlands and Sweden to see where my family comes from. I've also always wanted to go to Jamaica, but while we're at it I think it'd be great to go on an African Safari and also to see the Great Wall of China. And...(time and money are no object, right?) I was born in Washington, D.C., but moved when I was 6 weeks old and have never been back. And I've always wanted to see New England in the fall. And...you get the picture?

3. Q: When was the last time you cried?
This morning. Dave and I were having a heart to heart about our marriage and spiritual matters and it all came bubbling up. I tend to be an emotional person and it doesn't take much anyway!

4. Q: 5 Things you were doing this month 10 years ago: hmmm...let's see...October 1997...getting Haylee and Tanner's costumes for Halloween, they were both clowns that year, living in a 2-bedroom apartment in Holladay, going walking every afternoon with a neighbor, feeling stir-crazy at home with two toddlers while hubby worked 14-hour days, and scrapbooking--I used to do that when I had 2 kids.

5. Q: 5 things on your to do list today: exercise, drive dance carpool, Cub Scout Den Meeting, Young Women's (I'm Laurel Advisor), and fold laundry. I haven't done any of these yet.

6. Q: 5 favorite snacks: tortilla chips with black bean salsa, m & m's, protein drinks (with muscle milk from GNC...mmm (I know I'm weird!), strawberries, Dove milk chocolate

7. Q: 5 Bad Habits: making a funny noise to scratch my throat when it itches, leaving shopping bags in the doorway instead of putting things away, always wanting to split entrees at restaurants (hey, then you get 2 different dishes!), leaving my shoes laying around the house, and clutter.

8. Q: 5 Favorite Foods: This awesome spinach salad from Village Bakery in West Jordan, Cafe Rio, Stuart Anderson's Black Angus steak house, homemade whole wheat pancakes, and anything my sister Lisa cooks (she's gourmet everything).

9. Q: 5 Places I've been: Israel, Egypt, France, England, St. George

10: Q: 5 Favorite Memories: Reading the story of the Resurrection on Easter Sunday Morning with Dave at the Garden Tomb in Jerusalem, Dave's proposal serenade at TGIFriday's in Holladay, my wedding day, a surprise party Dave gave me for my 30th birthday, standing on the podium being awarded the first place medal for my swimming event the the High School State Championships (winning isn't everything, but it's really fun!).
