Don’t ask what got into me. I just had the sudden urge to do this little “game”. The ABC’s of me – one word for each letter that I would choose to describe myself.

A is for Athletic.

B is for Balanced Blogger. Oh! Double points!

C is for Culinary. …… hahahahahahaha!!!!!! Yeah, right.

D is for Determined.

E is for Everythingtarian (a la Holly)

F is for Fit.

G is for Genuine.

H is for Hopeful.

I is for Insightful.

J is for Jesus Freak. I just think that’s a funny term. But, don’t worry. My car does not look like this…

K is for Klutzy. Ain’t that the truth?

L is for Listener. Although I can talk your ear off too.

M is for Mother.

N is for Nice.

O is for Optimistic.

P is for Pregnant…or Phat.

Q is for Quirky.

R is for Rare. There is only one me and that is pretty awesome.

S is for Sweet-tooth. The most gigantic sweet-tooth ever!

T is for Teacher.

U is for Understanding.

V is for Veracious. Veracious means bluntly honest. You betcha. Especially on things like pregnancy, fitness, and my emotions.

W is for Whooty. That would be “white girl with a booty” and a term of endearment between my sister & I.

X is for Xcited for the weekend. I had to do the lame way. I’m not a xylophone after all.

Y is for Young. I’m the young one in our group of friends…one of the only ones under 30. Boo yah!

Z is for Zealous. I’m full of zealous passion for my hopes and dreams.

What words would you use to describe yourself? And I would still love for you to weigh-in on the discussions earlier about binge eating, relationships, and fat talk with friends.

I play this game regularly with little M. She loves hiding and then revealing herself. I guess it’s a fun thing to do, so I shall play my own version of peekaboo with you all and give you little glimpses behind the screen.

I’m on an egg kick.

I want a fried egg atop toast with a bit of cheese for lunch every day right now. With a big, juicy Honeycrisp apple on the side and some other small handful to snack on – blueberries, pretzels, Annie’s Organics bunny mix (pictured).

My sweet cravings are becoming unbearable. I feel the need for something sweet every day. I try to keep things reasonable with smaller treats and things like apples, gum, etc when the sweet tooth strikes, but I worry I’m getting to the “I don’t care, I’m pregnant" stage. I want to eat well, but boy is it getting hard these days. I even picked up some break + bake cookies to make for small groups tonight.

Something sweet sounded good and I knew I wouldn’t have time to make something from scratch. Normally I would have just not made anything instead of buying those. I’m telling you – my cravings are uncontrollable.

When the worry, overanalyzing bug bites me I turn to scalding hot showers and scheduling massages. I don’t know why, but I love just standing under extremely hot water. I also look forward to using my last prenatal massage gift certificate. It can’t come soon enough.

And now a few “peekaboos” you requested with your questions for the Q + A series:

What was the best food you EVER ate and why?
It would have to be the fresh pasta and house wine from a little Italian cafe situated right in front of the Pantheon in Italy. My friend and I ate there while traveling through Europe. It was our one splurge dinner and, even though quite costly for 2 newly graduated college students, incredibly divine. Plus, who wouldn’t love fresh Italian food IN Italy, finishing out the meal and conversation under the stars IN FRONT OF the Pantheon???

You said that you would like to have a mini-van, are you currently looking to buy one before Baby B arrives??
Nope. A certain thing called money gets in the way of that happening.

Of your parents, who do you resemble the most? How about your siblings?
Funnily enough, I most resemble my dad with my facial features. I have my mom’s booty though! My sister & I look a LOT alike. We have actually had people comment to each of us “Are you ___’s sister??” when we aren’t even together.

I once read that you were a teacher. Do you regret not using your degree or not having plans to use it?
I more regret not knowing my true interests earlier on and getting a degree related to nutrition or fitness. I don’t, however, regret not using my degree now because life is too short and I want to fill it with things I truly love. I enjoyed teaching, but it didn’t fulfill me like I have found other things can. I can’t wait to see the path God leads me down that works well for my passions and my family. Once again, that whole trust thing comes into play.
