Best exercise routine started and quickly abandoned: Dancing with the Stars Cardio Workout.
Hardest thing I didn't expect: Realizing that moving to my dream house wasn't exactly as dreamy as I had imagined it would be.
Favorite song that I am slightly embarrassed to admit I love: Teenage Dream by Katy Perry.
Best Food I had at a restaurant I can't remember the name of: A tiny "catch-of-the-day" cafe behind a fish and tackle shop in San Diego. The halibut and scallops were beyond definition. And I don't even really like seafood all that much.
Favorite Book I read that I expected I would like: Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins
Favorite Book I read that I was not expecting to like as much as I did: Digging to America by Anne Tyler
Worst Book I read that had me give up reading altogether (for a few months only...): The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett
Worst Cooking disaster: A tie between the hard-as-rock sugar cookies I made for Valentine's Day and dumping all of my cupcakes into a chocolatey-frosted mass at the bottom of my cupcake-carrier.
Number one "can't live without it" toy in our house right now: The Fisher Price Ride-On firetruck my parents got Bean for her birthday.
Favorite vacation memory: Zonking out at the La Quinta with Bean on the king-sized bed after a rough day at Arches National Park. Best nap I've ever taken. Period.
Best self-portrait taken:
Best movie with the worst ending: Inception
Proudest domestic moment: freezing enough pumpkin to feed a small army (one of my Grandma's favorite expressions.)
Proudest Emily moment: becoming more self-aware, confirming my values and beliefs, and making it through year one as a mommy.
