Love these! I loooove Moleskine journals, and I have a couple of those, plus other random notebooks around my apartment. I definitely don't need that many empty notebooks, but I used each different one for different things, of course!

May I ask why you have a blackberry and an iphone?
[Reply]
Two different numbers for two different businesses

Five things you didn't know about me:
1. I wish that you and I lived closer together.
2. I have daydreams about switching to a different profession almost every single day.
3. I am pretty sure I have baby fever.
4. Prince Edward Island is on my list of places I *must* go
5. I would much rather eat ice cream for dinner than a civilized meal.
This is a great list; I can honestly say that I knew next to none of it!

Love this….
I have similar things in my life… I love Half Baked and I can't say no to a cookie… ecspecially if it has an ounce of chocolate and now thanks to you a cookie I would have never tried the GingerMolasses one too!
1. I was married at 23… completely rarity and disease like age to be married in Toronto, friends of mine still cringe at the idea 6 years later.
2. I will be getting my FIRST tat tomorrow afternoon!
3. I have never lived in any other home than the home I am in now and I don't live with any of my parents.
4. My engagement ring is in some landfill, my mother threw out the trash it fell into by accident.
5. After having 2 kids under the age of 3 I am still dying to have more… but I am not very domesticated!
Enjoyed this post… still confused how you have never been to Poland… perhaps that would be a far more interesting trip. Heard Warsaw is fantastic!

Love the list – glad you're not like Whitney Port and have actually eaten pasta haha
And I can't wait to try Half Baked ice cream now, it sounds so good!
[Reply]
I totally agree with your #5. I am so bothered by people who don't send thank you cards after their wedding or bridal shower.
[Reply]
We have #2 and #5 in common. I thought I was the only strange one who didn't watch the news. For #11, you must try Ben & Jerry's If I Had a 1,000,000 Flavours. It's awesome!
1. I was born in Yellowknife, NWT.
2. I am absolutely terrified of cats.
3. My new crush is Zac Efron (I can't believe I just admitted that)
4. I won't leave the house without curling my eyelashes.
5. Your blog is the first one I started following and I think it's all because I ordered cupcakes from you.

Wow I have so many things that are similar to you.
Blackberry vs. iPhone.. which one do you prefer?
Ben & Jerry’s Half Baked — my guiltiest pleasure.
You've also had a lot of career changes! Did you go to hair school? How long were you in it for? I really wanted to get into hair styling before I became a graphic designer but the only reason I didn't was because my parents didn't let me go. I'm thinking of going back to school though.

I love Ben & Jerry's Half Baked too

I just rediscovered Jessica Simpson…
[Reply]
#17 – Do you watch Jessica Simpson's show, Price of Beauty? My hubby and I are watching it right now on Muchmusic.

I had no idea you were from Austria!! How cool!
