    1.  What is the last thing you bought online?
    shopping right now - as we speak for bras and undies - I am on La Senza's website but will probably head over to check out Vicky's and then Gap / Old Navy shortly - on a kick for sure!

    2.  Where is the most beautiful spot on earth that you've ever seen?
    Inis Meain, Aran Islands of the western coast of Ireland - hands down, for sure, Heaven on earth!
    3.  You can only visit one section of the bookstore - which section is it?
    probably the hobby/interest section - and get lost in cookbooks galore
    4.  What about yourself makes you least secure?
    would have to say my smile - I feel like my teeth aren't white enough and it drives me crazy..just bought a crest kit so will be trying that out starting Monday -crossing my fingers
    5.  Plans for the weekend?
    not too much - sister's bday is on Sunday so dinner with the family..but other than that not too much..taxes tomorrow and possibly looking into paper for invites/menu cards/placecards.

    1.  What is the last thing you bought online?
    Boring: a sample tablecloth for the wedding.  Fun: some shoes for dancing (silver sequins!)

    2.  Where is the most beautiful spot on earth that you've ever seen?
    Ooo this is a tough one.  The first thing that springs to mind in this cenote in Mexico that we went inside.  The water was so blue and there were vines hanging down. 

    3.  You can only visit one section of the bookstore - which section is it?
    Non fiction, if I have to narrow it down, probably economics stuff.  Or wedding books. 

    4.  What about yourself makes you least secure?
    Bum, thighs/calves, and nose.  in that order. 

    5.  Plans for the weekend?
    Gym (so I can no longer be insecure about my bum lol), FMILs birthday dinner, going out with my brother and his gf.

    2.  Where is the most beautiful spot on earth that you've ever seen? My entire trip to Riviera Maya, Mexico--from the Mayan ruins to the beaches and agree with Ekobs on the cenotes! 

    3.  You can only visit one section of the bookstore - which section is it? Fiction for sure (though I more frequently visit Half.com than bookstores), just bought "The Reliable Wife" and "Loving Frank"

    4.  What about yourself makes you least secure? My thighs and my hands (my nails refuse to grow and my fingers are super crooked from years of being bashed with Field Hockey sticks!)
