  • 1) What is your favourite holiday dinner food? Leg of lamb at Christmas eve dinner.
    2) How many (if any) siblings do you have? This is a very complicated question for me. One full sister, one half brother with the same mom, two half sisters with the same dad (they both live in Iceland.)

    4) Do you have any random weird talent? No, not really.
    5) If you could look like any movie star, who would it be? Marion Cotillard.
    6) Who is your favourite Disney character? It used to be Tinkerbell, but she has been too hyped up the last 10 years or so. They keep trying to make her nice, but Tinkerbell is not nice. She is a biitch. That is part of her appeal. I also like Ariel.
    7) If you could spend a month doing absolutely anything in life, what would it be? I'd go to the coast somewhere in the Mediterranean and go to the market every day and cook delicious food. I'd also sit outside and read a lot.

    2) How many (if any) siblings do you have? 2 sisters and 1 brother.  I'm the baby, by lots!  All are half - brother and one sister from my mom, and one sister from my dad.  They were all in the house when I was growing up though.

    7) If you could spend a month doing absolutely anything in life, what would it be? I feel like I would give different answers at this point in my life, but right now I'd love to take a month and do nothing.  H and I travel a lot so we almost never have time at home to relax and just "be" - so honestly, a month of doing that sounds amazing.

    I LOVE cranberry sauce....the less authentic the better.  I buy the canned stuff throughout the year and just eat it with a spoon.

    You kind of do look like Mila Kunis already!
