What was your favorite childhood toy? Barbies for sure.
What special talents do you have? Umm I am a good singer and used to win singing competitions and talent shows when I was younger.  I can also do backflips and splits from cheering in high school and college.  OH and I can touch my tongue to my nose.  
What is your biggest fear? Losing my loved ones.  I helped a good friend through the death of her fiance last spring and since then I have had an irrational fear of fiance dying. 
If you could eat any food for the rest of your life, what would it be? ice cream as long as it wouldn't make me fat.  Or maybe wheat pasta.
How many siblings do you have? Do you get along? I have one fifteen year old brother and we get along very well.  I think our age difference has something to do with that though.

What was your favorite childhood toy? Baby Doll.  She was this pink doll with a pink checkered face and blue felt eyes.  Orange-yellow yarn for hair.  LOVED HER.  Took her everywhere and slept with her every night.  She still exists - at my folk's place in my old room, pretty much a rag by now.
What special talents do you have? I like to think I write well.
What is your biggest fear? Dying violently.  Or losing Ben prematurely.  I never want to be alive without him.  I've actually forbade him to die first!
If you could eat any food for the rest of your life, what would it be? Mexican anything.  Drowned in salsa.  Hmm, or fudge.
How many siblings do you have? Do you get along?  Three younger sisters - 22, 19 and 15.  We all get along great and I love them.  Here's a fun photo.




Here's another one.  I love to AW my sisters cuz they rock.  We are cheesy JD girls here.

What was your favorite childhood toy? My Polly Pockets & TMNT action figures.

What special talents do you have? None really. Writing and art, I guess, but they aren't special.

What is your biggest fear? something terrible happening to my loved ones.
If you could eat any food for the rest of your life, what would it be? pasta. My mom's lasagna, or this pasta al forno I make sometimes.

How many siblings do you have? Do you get along? 1 brother, 6 years younger. We get along great now, as kids we fought like crazy. I also have 2 older stepbrothers but I rarely see them.

What was your favorite childhood toy? Barbie, still have a lot of the stuff!
What special talents do you have? Umm, cooking.  and i can organize just about anything or anyone.
What is your biggest fear? Justin dying first.  Only one of his grandparents has made it out of their 60s and his mom passed away at 54.  All for health related reasons.  We aren't talking about the sturdiest of genes here.
If you could eat any food for the rest of your life, what would it be? Grilled cheese sandwiches with a side of old bay chips.  Best comfort food for me!
How many siblings do you have? 1, older brother
Do you get along? Yes, very much so.  My new favorite thing to do with him is to instigate stuff so he gets in trouble with his wife.  hehehe.  not a lot of trouble.  just some

Guess I'll answer now!
What was your favorite childhood toy? I had an extensive Barbie collection that I still have..many in their original boxes. My FAVORITE, though, was the She-Ra Castle. My barbies would go party with She-Ra, it was that cool!

What special talents do you have? I can draw and paint and am pretty creative, but I feel weird calling myself an artist sometimes. I have skills, but I'm not 'artsy.' I also am a decent writer, and am looking to write another screenplay. I have a graphic design degree and started my own business, though I'm still a nurse. oh and I'm good at taking my clothes off while dancing.

What is your biggest fear? Losing Joel, dying in some horrific accident, drowning and lonliness. I hate the idea of having absolutely no friends or family.

If you could eat any food for the rest of your life, what would it be? Salad and french fries. Or Mexican food. I could probably eat tacos forever.

How many siblings do you have? Do you get along? WELL (pulls up a chair)...
I have 8 siblings, technically. I'm the only child of my parents together, but my mom has 3 other kids that I grew up with (ages 47, 46 and 40) and are who I talk about as my brothers and sister. I get along really well with my sister--she's like a second mom. My middle brother and I get along, but he kinds distances himself from us for whatever reason. my younger (though he's older than me, he acts way younger) brother is a trainwreck and if I never see him again it's fine by me. My dad has 5 other kids, one of which I've never met. I've met the others at least once in my life, and one just found me on fb. I don't have a relationship with them really.

sorry for the novel!

 What was your favorite childhood toy?  I collected Breyer model horses.  I had a lot.  Some were my mom's from when she was a kid.  I still have the collection in boxes in the garage, and occasionally I'll buy one (once every year or two).  I hope one day I will have a house with room to display them.

What special talents do you have? I was in the SF Girls Chorus as a kid although I don't sing much anymore.   I am a pretty good swimmer thanks to doing swim team in junior high and high school.  I am an amazing cook, and I love to cook for my family.

What is your biggest fear? Well obviously I don't want to lose FI.  After that, probably getting any kind of invasive surgical procedure and/or having blood drawn.

If you could eat any food for the rest of your life, what would it be?  Potstickers.  The perfect food!

How many siblings do you have? Do you get along? Two half brothers, age 16 and 20 (13 and 10 years younger than me, respectively).  I only lived with them when they were really young so we've never had bad sibling relationships.  We didn't have much contact when they were kids but as they got older and my dad moved back to the west coast, I saw them a lot more and we get along fabulously.  I never really treated them like kids, and they are both very mature (not just precocious but actually MATURE) for their ages.  The older one is a musician and actor and his band is doing relatively well in L.A., the other is a top student and athlete and is applying for colleges.

Random Fact: I grew up with a girl who choked on one of those Lite Brite pegs after she tried to eat it so her parent's sued the maker of Lite Brite. And they won. (Which I disagree with but we won't get into that)

p.s. I also love your new siggy quote. I saw that yesterday and LOLed.

How many siblings do you have? Do you get along? Officially 1 older sister, we're only 19 months apart, so we've been best friends most of our lives.  Unofficially I have an imaginary brother, our entire family acknowledges him.  We even send Christmas cards out from him every year.  It's a long running joke in our family, I don't know what we would do without brother Jim.
