Tag, your it

I saw this fun questionnaire over on Kelsey's blog, "eat, drink, be a tourist" and thought it would make a fun blog post. The idea is simple, I will answer her 11 questions and then I will create 11 for you to answer. I would love to learn more about you, so look for my questions below and let me know in the comments if you play along.

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be?
I would love to go back to Tokyo.  I still think about it almost everyday.  The people, the food, the cleanliness, and experiences.  Everything about Tokyo awoke my senses. 

 

 Fortunes waiting to come true

Describe yourself in five words.
Independent, hard worker, creative, spirited, overweight

What do you look forward to most in life?
Seeing my daughter smile, looking at instagram and drinking coffee from Starbucks

What's the first thing you do every day?
Look at email on my iPhone (Facebook too!)

What would you do with a million dollars?
I would immediately quit my job and take Eleanor out of daycare, then I would pay-off our mortgage and put our house up for sale.  Once the house sold I would take 3 months to travel around Japan, Iceland, France and the UK with my husband and Eleanor. First class accommodations when possible. Returning home I would find a smaller house, pay off bills and start a company.

Do you believe in love at first sight?
No

Who is your biggest role model.
I don't really have one.  I pick and choose pieces of people that I admire and try to emulate those aspect of them.  For a long time my role model was Kate Spade, but I just recently found out that even she can't do it all. 

Describe your perfect first date.
Leisurely dinner while enjoying a nice bottle of wine.
