Hi, Angie! It's nice to meet you.
My favorite thing to do is cook.And scrapbook. And teach my kids. Kiss my husband....man, I've got a lot of favorite things!
My favorite meal is grilled steak and baked potatoes. I craved this when I was pregnant, leaving my poor husband to bemoan the fact that I didn't crave something cheap like peanut butter.
The last thing I ate was a Cadbury creme egg leftover from Easter. Healthy breakfast, huh?
As for why the sky is blue I'll tell you what my son told me....because it's not green.
Happy Partying!
Happy Party! I love reading about other people's healthy living adventures.
What’s your favorite thing to do? Travel, though I don't get to do it as much as I'd like.
What is your favorite meal? A big salad with a big hunk of warm bread.
What was the last thing you ate? Yogurt and Granola
Why is the sky blue? I want to say I don't know but I think my high school science teachers would be disappointed in me!
Hi Angie! So glad you stopped by my blog today. This is *so* much fun! I never knew how many wonderful women bloggers were out here! :)
At this point, my husband and I have gone totally plant-based in our new lifestyle, but that isn't to say I would never eat meat again. If/when I do, it will just have to be free-range, totally organically grown and fed animals. I don't claim to be a vegetarian, just making some lifestyle changes that are working for us.
I hope you will stop by again soon! Happy Party Day! :)
To answer your questions:
What’s your favorite thing to do? Read, write, scrapbook, spend time with friends and family.
What is your favorite meal? Soup and breadsticks. (homemade)
What was the last thing you ate? A banana :)
Why is the sky blue? Because God decided to smile on us today and give us sun after all these blustery winter days!
Hi, Angie! I'm Angie, too! :) Found you through the UBP and looking forward to getting to know you.
Here are my answers to your questions:
1. I love designing. It's a great way to get out all that pent-up creativity I've got in my mind. And, I've met some really fantastic people because of my business!
2. My favorite meal is my homemade chicken and dumplings. The chicken is separate from the dumplings and just tastes so much better than anything you could ever buy at the store or order in a restaurant.
3. Hanging my head in shame - the last thing I ate was a mint chocolate chip ice cream cone last night.
4. I'll tell you what my kids tell me, "Because God made it that way. Duh."
Looking forward to getting to know you! Stop by my blog if you'd like!
Hi! Great to meet you! I am currently loving my almost year old hobby ~ photography ~ and shooting my favorite subject ~ my two grandbabies, a 2yo and a 7mo.

Last thing I ate was breakfast - a healthy shake, and now I'm going to chase that down with some unhealthy caffeine :)

Fav thing to do: One of my favs is to go to the library!

Hello from the Ultimate Blog Party. Thanks for stopping by my blog. Let me see.. my favorite thing to do would be to take photographs. My main love is old homesteads and one room schoolhouses.. The benefits of living in MT you see a LOT of them.. Have fun with the party!
Love the questions idea!
My ultimate favorite thing to do is cook, especially with my kids. We're trying to find a healthy lifestyle and so incorporating them into every aspect of it has become a goal of mine.
My favorite meal lately is my low-fat chili mac. It was a creation I came up with on a whim and it's become a staple in our household.
The last thing I ate was some pasta with chicken - nothing exciting but it was yummy nonetheless!
As far as the sky...I don't really have a good idea for that, but I love the eyeshadow comment up above! :)
Happy Blogging!
