What color scheme is your Living Room?? Your Kitchen?? Your Bathroom?? Your Bedroom?? Right now we stick with blues and browns. I'm moving in a few months, though, and a lot of things are going to change - but those colors won't. Our kitchen is really tiny right now, but we have black, silver, and white appliances...nothing else really, no room...can't wait for my new kitchen! My bathrooms have duck pictures, rubber duckies (still trying to find more of these...I found these adorable ones with hats and glasses on, too cute...and I have a white pearl one from Bath & Body Works...always looking for more, though), and shells. On the walls we hang black metal frames with white mats and pictures I've taken (photography is a hobby of mine). I have a feeling eventually all our furniture will be black, I love that elegant look it has, but that's on hold until Erik gets out of the Army and we start purchasing for a house.

Do you enjoy puzzles like crosswords, sudoku, wordsearches? Not so much...I enjoy Scrabble and mind puzzles, though (ones that make you think and solve things).

Any colors that you don't like? Not really...I don't really like neon colors I guess...I prefer pastels and darker colors.

How do you feel about black & white photos? I really enjoy them, I've taken a bunch...but we don't have any hanging up right now, minus our large Ansel Adams picture in the living room.

Do you have space on your walls to hang more things, or are they full? They're pretty full for right now, we spent two weekends setting everything up...and I'm not looking to hang anything right now just because I'll be moving soon. But something for our next place wouldn't bother me, it'll be a small house (we live in a two bedroom apartment right now).

What would be better, wall decoration, or "anywhere" decoration? I would say anywhere decoration for right now.

do your kittys like to wear clothes? lol, do they like it?
I bought them sweaters last winter and my grandmother knit a few more for us. They get used to them and look soooo cute!

do you like to bake? Yup, I love it. But I can't until after my wedding (October 28)!

who is your fav. sport star or team? Dallas Cowboys - see next question, I answered from the bottom up.

what is your favorite sport? I loooove the Cowboys (*favorite*), Colts, and Giants (football) - Erik has gotten me into football a lot lately. I enjoy rollerblading and we just got into biking. I love Tae Bo, too.

are you allergic to feathers, peanuts, or anything like that? I'm only allergic to shellfish.

do you like /have stuffed animals? Yes, but most have been put into boxes because they drive Erik crazy (I have a cow collection, I enjoy kitty stuffed animals, etc.). A few are out, but nothing crazy...so stay away from this, lol.


do your kittys wear collars if they do what kind? They do when we visit my mom but they don't at home. Erik like them to be comfortable, although I don't see a point in taking them off, lol, but whatever...

What is the one thing I want from my SS? Nothing really - I'm not picky.

What is the one thing I DON'T want from my SS? Nothing really - I think that there is no *bad* gift - every gift takes thought, and it's nice to know someone has thought of you.
