Yesterday on my friend Elaine’s blog she shared a list of 48 questions. The type of silly questions that we used to pass around via email / facebook / myspace all those years ago.
I used to love these surveys that would give you little insights into your friends lives. Filled with useless information like who’s your favorite band or how many places have you lived.
So without further ado, here are my answers to 48 questions…

You don't have brown eyes, they're 'frosted spruce'! If you don't know what I am talking about you need to watch the sitcom Happy Endings (It's the one where Jane lies about her Birthday being on Christmas) I don't know why but I think those first 2 minutes from that episode are the funniest start ever to a show.
That's awesome that you are so close to your mom. I love my mom to death but between you and me, she's crazy.
OMG this is just too funny. I love Happy Endings!
Southern NJ is never to be confused with northern NJ. Ever. 😉
Loved getting to know you a bit more through this.
Thanks and it's nice to know there is another Jersey girl out there who gets it.
I have seen quite a few people do this. So fun! My husband's family is Northern Jersey!
