These are a few of my favorite things

So I guess I have now been tagged and asked to tell 5 things that people don't know about me. I'm not really sure what to write or if I will be able to get 5 things but I will try. I know some of these might be lame, but oh well here we go.

1) Food! I LOVE PIZZA I really think that it is my favorite food. It doesn't matter what brand, what kind (frozen, take-n-bake, ready to eat) or even what temperature. I love it all. The only thing that I don't like is Domino's Pizza, it is never cooked all the way through. Also along the food line, I really enjoy eating popcorn and apples for dinner. I can't decide if I like it so much because Devon finds it repulsive or if the salty sweet combination is just right. Either way it doesn't matter, I just love it.

2) I know a lot of people think that it is really funny, but I truly enjoy water aerobics. I know that it is kind of a grandma activity but I just find it really enjoyable. I still get a really good workout, but it is easy on my joints and in a strange way it is relaxing to me.

3) Some people may already know this but I apparently am a carbon copy of my mother. Maybe not in the way we look, but in every other way we are very similar. It has taken me several years to come to terms with it but now I am aware of it and am okay with it. I have learned to appreciate her and take it as a compliment when people comment on our similarities.

4) I love to bake! I also enjoy cooking but I really LOVE baking. I just get a wonderful sense of accomplishment from baking. When people eat my food and just love it I find it very fulfilling.
When I cook I usually stress out a little bit. There are usually people waiting to eat, or there are deadlines. Nights are just busier, and kids are usually crankier so it makes cooking a little more stressful. But with baking, it is totally different. No one is crabbing at you "oh not that again" or "I'm starving, when is dinner?" When you bake everyone is always positive. I usually bake in the morning or early afternoon. Austin is usually sleeping for part of it and Devon is at school so I can take my time and try new things. Also, I feel that I can be more creative with baking.
I love to try new recipes because with baking, even if they don't turn out they way you plan, 9 times out of 10 they still taste delicious. The ONLY problem with baking is that if you make it, someone has to eat it and that someone shouldn't be me but unfortunately it usually is. So whenever I bake I try to find someone to give it to. Most people are more than willing to take a hot lova cake off your hands.

5) If I had all the money in the world and could do anything, I would travel. I really enjoy traveling and so does my husband. It doesn't really have to be anywhere far or exotic (although I would enjoy that too) but just to go and find new places. I love to come across little places that aren't that popular but turn out to be some of the nicest places you could find. I enjoy camping and some of the best trips we have taken have been when we just packed up some stuff and left without really knowing where we were going. We have this map of Idaho that has all the back roads and small no name places, so we would just read about different spots and then go check them out. The scenery was always so pretty and the campsites were great. I really liked just going and finding new places and see different things. It is always fun to experiance new things. I also like to travel to different places to see the different cultures. I haven't been able to do it a lot, but in the little that I have traveled I always find it enjoyable to see how different people are. We may all live in the same country, but we are far from being the same. I love to see the uniqueness and diversity.

Well, I don't know how much of that was new news and how much was old but that is all I've got. My life isn't that exciting so I don't really have a lot of hidden secrets. Hope you enjoyed
