So I'm new to this Tag concept, but somehow Shelby got me. (See if I contact old friends again!!!!!) Here goes...
A. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning.
B. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.
10 years ago (Jan 1998) I had just returned from my study abroad in Jerusalem and my backpacking through Europe. I was trying to locate my Israel dishes I had sent home with other students. I had resumed school at the U and beginning my planning to apply for law school.
5 things on my to-do list today:
1. Fold the laundry (that would include finishing washing the dirty laundry on my floor by the washer)
2. Clean the house for Book Club here tomorrow night
3. Write thank you notes for Christmas gifts
4. Work on Clifton and Mike's Christmas stockings (no, they still are not done - maybe by Christmas 2008...)
5. make dinner (any ideas?!)
snacks I enjoy: Chocolate, Chocolate ice cream, chocolate dipped raspberries, chocolate cake, chocolate chip cookies, chocolate fudge brownies, hot chocolate and Carmel popcorn
Things I would do if I were a billionaire:
1. Hire a cleaning lady
2. open a quilt/chocolate shop
3. Buy a boat and water ski (so we could hang out with Dave and Shelby)
4. Take my family (siblings and parents included) on a river trip down the Grand
3 of my bad habits:
1. Eating Chocolate
2. Starting projects I'll never finish
3. tasting everything as I cook
5 places I have lived:
1. SLC, Utah
2. Overland Park, Kansas
3. Vienna, Virginia
4. Jerusalem
5. I'll let you know in about 2 1/2 years!
5 jobs I have had:
1. Soccer referee
2. Presser at a dry cleaners
3. Receptionist at a law firm
4. Stock girl at a Cummings chocolates - This may explain my slight obsession with Chocolate 5. Attorney
5 things people don't know about me:
1. I spent a night at an Israeli jail and was going to be charged with a felony (talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time!) This is what happens when a bunch of 19-23 year-olds wander cemeteries in foreign countries on Halloween in costume!!!!
2. I have always hated my nose.
3. I am terrified of bugs flying near my head. When I was in in College, I was walking home and a moth flew into my ear. It crawled all the way down against the ear drum and was flapping its wings. It was the most awful thing I have ever experienced. I had to have a doctor remove it by squishing it against my ear drum and pulling it out.
4. I love dishes - If I could I would have a different set of dishes for every holliday and every season.
5. I think I was born in the wrong generation - I should have been a flower child - I always wanted to be one. I love the music of the 60s, the power of the 60s and the passion behind all of the movements. (Actually, its probably a good thing I wasn't born then...who knows what trouble I would have gotten myself into!)
I tag Emily, Carolyn, Windybrook, Peggy and Marie

I've been tagged! I've always wondered what that is all about. I'm excited to do it but I won't be near as entertaining as you. Just so you know, I just found my tag and I am leaving town tomorrow so I won't get to it until next week...just wanted to tell you so you wouldn't think i was ignoring it! Loves!
I just read about Elliott. Wow. Wrote a comment there too.
Sure Emily. You and your wandering the earth. It's not fair. Anyway. Thanks Amanda. I had a lot of fun doing mine.
Thanks for being a good sport. That story about the jail in Jerusalem is AWESOME! You must put that on a shirt or something. If I had something that interesting I would probably use it to introduce myself.
Blake says "Hi I'm 3 and I can somersault."
You could say, "Hi I'm Amanda and I once spent the night in an Israeli jail."
Oh yeah, and I'm always in for the group waterskiing.
Would the quilts be made out of chocolate? No, wait, that's a chocolate store and a quilt store. ;)
Just kidding. I miss you Amanda!
I also think that it's only fitting that someone in the law started out on the wrong side of it! (You flower child, you!)
Neighboring stores would be very cool. Didn't we discuss combining retail efforts once anyway. =) I like the chocolate element a lot.
I especially liked the 5 things people don't know about you part...you are so funny!
I found you on the Storey's blog. My blog is www.sjjonesfamily.blogspot.com
