1. What was one of your favorite Halloween costumes as a kid (or "big kid")? My favorite all-time costume was when I dressed as The Little Mermaid in kindergarten. I honestly still remember it like it was yesterday. My cousin and I had the same costumes and it was the first time we were able to wear makeup! lol - and I got to wear shells and the red wig... it was fantastic!

2. How long is your morning commute to work? Well, since the move, it takes me about 35-45 mins. It USED to take me 8 mins boo!

3. What is your favorite room in your house/apt, why? Our bedroom. The bed is SUPER comfy and now we have a big TV in the room which is fabulous!

4. Are you a saver or a spender? Spender for sure... I wish I was a saver!

5. At the end of the day, are you more likely to work out or snuggle up on the couch? Snuggle up on the couch... I'm extrememly un-motivated right now to work out!

6. Favorite Halloween candy? Hmmm hard one... I always loved the houses that gave the 'big candy bars' or huggies! lol

7. Nails polished (Y or N)? Sort of... I had them polished very light pink (natural looking) for my bros wedding and they are chipping now. I typically don't have them polished though.

8. If you could change your name, what would it be? I don't think I would change my name. I used to hate it as a kid b/c I could never find keychains or toothbrushes w/ my name on it but I kind of like the uniqueness now.

9. Starbucks or Dunkin Dounuts? Omg this is super hard for me! I love them both, but Starbucks for hot lattes and DD for iced lattes and DONUTS!!

10. Favorite personality trait of DF/DH? Passion and determination

<div>They're all sale items, though, so it's not THAT bad. I am probably going to end up ordering them by the end of the day. Sometimes while I shop online, I'll just add everything that I like to my shopping cart and then have to go through and erase it.</div>

1. What was one of your favorite Halloween costumes as a kid (or "big kid")? I recycled a lot of ballet/dance costumes for Halloween. When we were little though, my mom made/put together a lot of ours, I love seeing pics from those years.
2. How long is your morning commute to work? well it USED to be short. Now that the bus service blows, a 10-15 minute trip is extended. this morning's bus came full all but 2 seats, and within 2 more stops he couldn't stop for any more people. A 35 minute walk is the better option going forward. At least I know how long it takes and I only have to rely on myself to get there on time!

4. Are you a saver or a spender? a little of both
5. At the end of the day, are you more likely to work out or snuggle up on the couch? Depending on how late I work, but usually I do get a workout in when I get home
6. Favorite Halloween candy? hmmm, not a big candy/sweets girl. But I guess Reese's
7. Nails polished (Y or N)? Yes. toenails always a pink/pearl shade and fingernails clear if any polish at all
8. If you could change your name, what would it be? Sasha or Siobhan
9. Starbucks or Dunkin Dounuts? Starbucks
10. Favorite personality trait of DF/DH? Super loving and just in general a really good guy. Way more patient and non-judgy than I am!
