I loooove the name Evie (which I snagged from The Mummy), but K tells me that we can never name our future daughter that because kids will tease her “Evie Matevie” – even though that’s NOT how you say our last name. He’s probably not wrong, though. Haha.

So I totally love posts like this because you always learn so much!! Mmmm blue cheese on chips is so so good!!! And what is life without coffee, water and wine? Even though my life has to go without blue cheese and wine for at least a few more months. Ugh! I love how two of your favorite colors are black and gray. Sounds like my wardrobe…with a little navy thrown in. LOL! But I do love purple and claim that it is my favorite color.

Bleu cheese + balsamic vinegar + chips = perfection. SO GOOD. I’ll consume all that stuff for you right now since you’re growing a human ๐
I wear a lot of grey & black (& neutrals), so I think it throws people off when I say yellow is my favorite. Especially during my emo high school days, haha! Those 4 colors were our wedding colors, though!

OCTOBER. It was chilly and rainy this morning and I actually had to turn the heat on in my car and I was a little bit too giddy about it. And cherry is definitely the best flavor.

There is a song titled “Evie” by an Aussie singer (Stevie Wright) that’s from the late 70s or early 80s, and it’s one of my husband’s favorite songs.
I used to want to live in Switzerland. Still would if it wasn’t for things like husbands and stepkids ๐

I’ve never heard of that song, but I’ll have to look it up! K and I always sing “Come On Irene” to Lylee because we think it sounds like they’re saying, “Come On Ly-lee.” Hahaha!
Mannnnn, my husband is that little ol’ thing holding me back, too! Ha! Hahaha ๐

Damn that’s a lot of questions, but it really takes me back to when I was a teen and there was all these kinds of posts floating about. I remember the ones where you had to bold the stuff that was true about you haha!
These are really random questions! Did you think them up yourself, or find them somewhere?
Also, yay for middle name snap!
Ouch to breaking your leg and crushing your spine though. I’m glad that I’ve never done anything like that in my life and I hope to keep in that way forever!

I failed at finishing my library books before they were due, oops. I renewed one but had to give one back, because apparently you can’t renew if there’s a hold on it. Oh well, I’ll read it another time. I have a bamboo pillow and it is also the bomb.
