This is an Interactive Internet Question Game. I got it from Blackbird.
This is how it's played:
1. If you want to play, leave a comment below saying so.
2. I'll post five unique questions to the comments section of this post.
3. You answer them in your blog.
4. In your post, you include this explanation and an offer to interview others.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.
Here are the questions I got from Blackbird.
1. You can have a $200 gift card, Nordstroms or Starbucks?
Nordstrom’s. One word: Cashmere.
2. Did you write your own wedding vows?
No. We went strictly Protestant-traditional with the exception of the "obey" part.
3. Eight course tasting menu at a four star restaurant or picnic in a field?
Eight-course tasting menu. I had a picnic with the boys last week at the park and wound up with ants in the sandwiches, Jude getting stung by a wasp, and sour chocolate milk.
4. Ever been to the naked beach? (different than skinny dipping, one sunbathes nude at the naked beach)No. Not sure I could, I am so self-conscious about my body.
5. Ever broken any bones? How?
No broken bones. Nothing worse than a sprain, even during my preteen gymnast days. God, I’m boring.

I'll play, but I'm not sure if I'm supposed to answer the above questions or new ones . . .
New ones. Give me a few minutes and I'll come up with some : )
I'll take some questions! I've done this a couple times and it's always fun.
Me too! Me too!
the children are restless today...screaming is no longer taboo at the library it seems....
Just back from the library myself --
it would seem that NO ONE stays quiet there anymore.
Anyway -- I totally love your answers.
Wouldn't it be fun if everyone who played on my blog went and had an 8 couse tasting meal TOGETHER?!

And definitely a YES to "do others want to see what I look like." Your boys are so beautiful I want to eat them up with a spoon.
Oh, see the problem when one skips over the latest blog entries to scroll down and read in order? While one is having a very-much-enjoyed beer? One mistakes Gina's beautiful little boy for Val's.
But in my mind Simon and Jude are beautiful too!
(What's the statute of limitations on calling boys "beautiful," anyway? I will persist unless informed otherwise...)

I've done this before, but its been a while. Shoot.

If you could be any religion but the one you are/were raised in, which would it be and why?
You are given unlimited resources/money/staff to change three things about your job/workplace. What do you change?

Hey!
I wrote that I wanted to be all interrogated 'n' all and then sat by the, er, blog and waited. ThenI saw that for some reason that had vanished into the ether.
So, if this does not likewise vanish, ask me them Babel-ish questions.
