11 Questions from VICKY at 

http://thegreekhousewife.blogspot.com/

1. Why do you blog??

I enjoy sharing my ideas, recipes, things that make me laugh, 

what's going on with the kids, especially things I'm very proud

 of.

2. What can't you live without??

My family. I know sounds lame but honestly I would be totally 

lost with out my wonderful husband and 3 kids. They are my 

life.

3. What's your star sign??

I am A LEO

4. If you were stranded on a deserted island who and what(one item) would you like to have with you??

James(hubby) and knife. With just him and that I do believe we

 would possibly have a chance of getting out of there. the knife

 would not only be good for cutting stuff to make weapons 

and/or shelter but could also be used to kill for food or safety.

5. What's your favorite pastime??

Movie nights with the kids or just spending time with them.

 They grow so fast I don't want to miss moment we can turn 

into memories.

6. What's the silliest thing you've ever done??

It wasn't really silly but more like dumb. we were getting over

run by stray kittens so my husband and I devised a plan to 

lour the kittens into the house with food and then catch them

 with a laundry basket so that we could take them to the local 

cat cradle so that they would have a better life. Long story 

short we caught all the kittens but one. The last kitten was a 

bit to smart and when I went to catch him, he caught me. He 

latched onto my hand and proceeded to gnaw on it like 

hamburger. My husband ended up having to choke the kitten 

in order to get it to let me go. I ended up having to have rabies 

shots and almost had to have surgery on my finger. but I 

learned never to mess with stray cats after that.

7. What's your favorite romantic/love story movie??

TITANIC!!

8. Where in the world would you like to travel to (pretend money is no issue)??
