Meet Me On Monday {3/21}

1.  What jewelry do you wear 24/7?

  I wear my Claddagh ring all of the time. Same ring, same finger, different position since I was 13! I also wear the same earrings all of the time. I have two silver hoops in the bottom holes, one silver hoop with a Celtic design on the next hole up on the left (hubby has the other), and a "diamond" stud up on the top of my left - through the cartilage (That one HURT!) I don't wear my wedding ring right now. Since I had my little guy, I've had to put it away because the stone became a hazard - it sticks out to much and I'm afraid of scratching him.

2.  Do you twirl your spaghetti or cut it?

Cut it. I hate getting messy when I eat. I break it into small pieces before I cook it, then cut it more before I eat.

3.  How many siblings do you have?

I have a brother and a sister. My brother is 2 years younger than me and my sister is 5 years younger.

4.  Were you named after anyone?

Nope! I used to hate my name, Alicia, because it was so different from all of the Jennifer's and Kristin's I grew up with. I just wanted to blend in, ya know? But, as I grew older, my name really didn't matter to me. Now, if I stand out in a crowd, I don't even notice. I have more important things on my mind rather than worrying whether I'm like everyone else!



5.  Coke or Pepsi?

Pepsi! For some reason, I get a ginger ale aftertaste from Coke. I can't stand ginger ale! I threw it up too much as a kid (it was my parents' cure-all for any stomach ailment.)

Are you old enough to have taken the original Pepsi Challenge in the 80's? Do you remember Like Cola?

Can't wait to read what everyone else's answers are! See you all next week!





Sorry there's no linky. I tried adding it, but it's just not working. Hmm...
