FMM: Getting To Know You
1) What is one of your favorite ways to spend a Saturday? Saturdays are the days that I get a lot accomplished – Zumba in the morning, spend a good part of the day cleaning the house and doing laundry, then take a long afternoon walk with Sofi, and I finally, I like to spend Saturday late afternoon/evening/night with friends/family – grabbing coffee and chatting, going to a movie, window shopping, out to dinner, etc. A nice mix of To Do’s and socializing.
2) List your top three favorite TV shows. I have really gotten into the whimsical, yet dark nature of Once Upon a Time. I also just started an obsession with Sons of Anarchy, and I’m catching up on the past seasons with my Amazon Prime membership. And of course, I love any and all of the Real Housewives series on Bravo. I watch a lot of TV, though, so there are many other shows that I watch on a regular basis (Dexter, Boardwalk Empire, Project Runway, etc.)
3) Would you rather be in pictures or take them? Why choose? I like to be in settings where I can take photos but also be in them (with friends).
4) Why do you blog? To find a creative outlet for my emotions, intellect, and my journey. Along the way, I’ve “met”/met some incredible, supportive people whom I consider among my best friends.
5) Share five websites that you visit regularly…
~ A few different news sites, including my local newspaper and Huffington Post.
~ Tie between Pinterest and Twitter
6) If you could have lunch with one person from your Twitter list who would it be? I’d love to meet Jen Lancaster (@altgeldshrugged) because I love her writing, her personality is hilarious (from what I can tell on Twitter and on her blog), and I know we’d eat a great meal because she knows all the best Chicago hotspots.
7) List a few of your favorite snacks. Right now I’m doing a whole different eating plan, but normally I love nuts, fruit, veggies, and pita chips with hummus, to name just a few.
8 ) Do you have a pet? If so, what kind? Sofi!! She’s a 9-month old Shichon. She even has a blog.
9) Which three material possessions would you struggle to live without? MacBookPro, iPhone, Kindle.
10) What’s your favorite drink? Coffee, water, and wine.
11) Do you enjoy cooking? I love to cook! I cook for myself every single night, and have been really enjoying figuring out lower carb versions of my favorites. Check out my Bella Cooks page to see all of the different recipes I’ve tried.
12) Do you have children? No, but I have two adorable nieces and 144 students. That counts, right?
13) What are your favorite hobbies? Writing, reading, cooking, and anything I can do creatively.
14) Would you consider yourself to be shy or outgoing? Very outgoing.
15) If you could change one thing about yourself, what would you change? My weight.
16) Who is your favorite actor/actress? Johnny Depp.
17) What’s the coolest thing you’ve done this week? It’s only Monday – nothing very cool has happened yet. I’m looking forward to going to an Indian Temple Dance class on Thursday afternoon, though. That should be cool!
18) Do you live near your family or far from them? Very near. My sister lives next door, my parents live 5 minutes away, and my other cousins/aunts live in the same city or the neighboring ones. I’m really lucky.
19) List three of your talents. Leading, writing, organizing.
20) What is your greatest attribute? My strength and determination.
Now it’s your turn to share your answers. Don’t forget to go back to Kenlie’s blog and link up in the comments! Happy Monday!
Bella on the Beach 
Hi Bella! Just stopping by from FMM! I admire your organization skills (I’m working on this in my life…but not quite there!) Hope you are feeling better!
I love this blog post! It covered quite a few things we forgot to cover yesterday! Lol. I love all this same shows for sure. I am so loving the Allstar season of Project Runway! My faves are Rami and Mondo. I loved them both in their seasons. I can’t pick which one I want to win more! Once upon a time is so impeccably well written, I am completely hooked! Oh the life of a tv junkie! Btw- LOVE LOVE Johnny Depp too, he can do no wrong if you ask me. :h
You’re a teacher, too!? How did I not know that? 🙂 I totally understand when you say you have 144 “kids.” Me, too!
Love getting to know you this way, Bella!
I think FMM is such a fun exercise! It is also allowing me to find blogs I might not have stumbled upon.
Great list!
Agreed that Jen Lancaster is a hoot! She makes me laugh till I cry!
Hi Bella. Yes, 144 students do count!
You are so lucky to have family close, I miss our families so much. Stopping by from FMM again
