Here is my interview:
  1. How long have you been blogging and why did you get started? I started in 2007 when I moved to AZ. I started it to keep in touch with my family who had moved to Idaho and my friends in California
  2. What is your favorite recipe of all time? My dad's noodles, meat and veggie dish. I dont know how he makes it, I just know that it is so so good.
  3. Are you a part of any public groups? I am not sure what a public group is...so probably not.
  4. What was your favorite show growing up? 3-2-1 Contact on PBS. Shining Time Station, Reading Rainbow, Ghostwriter, Zoom and Bill Nye the Science Guy. Yea..we watched quite a lot of PBS shows
  5. Do you have a favorite Holiday? If so, what do you like to do during that holiday? Christmas and my birthday - which I consider my own personal holiday.  During Christmas I like to shop at the last minute, make Christmas treats, do all things in red and green. Tradition since getting married is to go cut down a Christmas tree which is always an adventure
  6. Do you have a secret talent that no one really knows about? What is it? I'm not really sure..I feel like an open book

  10. What is your favorite food to splurge on? snacks for work! That might include granola bars, fruit snacks, Blue Diamond Almonds, cinnamon bears, sour gummy worms...oh yes
  11. What restaurant do you like the most when you go out to eat? It depends on my mood. Buffet style I love Sweet Tomatoes. I like In N Out - always and forever! Zupas is another favorite but I also like trying new places that I have never been before.

Pinterest Parties, Ice Castles & More!

I've been upping my blogging lately and working on redoing what I do, as in, I have too many blogs and I am trying to think of what I can do to get rid of 1 or maybe 2 of them. In the meantime, while I figure that out, you may have noticed that Stacie's Place is now a .com! So excited to finally just DO that. I think it looks great and will be easier to tell people as well. Check out the Valentine's Pinterest Party I hosted last week I also took a quick trip to Idaho over the weekend with my sister and her boys Tony & I got to go to Midway to see the ice castles for our first time ever. School is going awesome!   I blogged about some moving tips for moms (or anyone!) and have you heard of the Great Inflatable Race ? What fun things have you been up to lately? Link me in a comment below and I will come check it out or comment back!
