Sam's ABCs

I've seen this on a few blogs and thought it would be a good way to let Young People in Love's newest followers get to know me a little better. 


Age: 25
Bed size: Queen
Chore you hate: Doing my hair and putting on makeup. I just want to be able to snap my fingers or wiggle my nose after I get out of the shower and...*poof!*...it's all done!
Dogs: My family has a Labradoodle named Archie. We love him to pieces. Also, I live for puppies. 
Essential start of your day: Cereal. Preferably a cinnamon-y kind. 
Favorite color: Mustard yellow. 
Gold or silver: Silver. 
Height: 5'5".
Instruments I play (or have played): Does the recorder in 4th grade count? I hope so. 
Job title: Art therapist and adjunct professor. And love dove. 
Kids: Not sure what this is asking...I'm generally pro-children. :) 
Live: Salt Lake City, UT. 
Mom's name: Liesa
Nickname: Sam, Sammy, Samajama, Samwise, Samalama-ding-dong, Sammy Jammy (the possibilities are endless, my friends).
Overnight hospital stays: No, thanks. 
Pet peeve: Cupboards and drawers left open. Just close those suckers already!
Quote from a movie: "And there's nuthin you girls can do about it!"
--Mulan
Right or left handed: Righty tighty. 
Siblings: I'm the oldest of five girls (Hailey, Sarah, Rosemary, and Elizabeth).
Time you wake up: Depends on the day. On average, I'd say somewhere around 7am-10:30am...ish. 
Underwear: Uhhhh...yes, please? 
Vegetables you dislike: Lots. Mostly cooked spinach when it's all limp and sweaty. 
What makes you run late: Not much. Being late bugs. 
X-rays you've had done: Teeth, lungs, collar bone, wrists. 
Yummy food you make: Mac & Cheese. From scratch. Kill it. 
Zoo animal: The penguins at the Central Park Zoo in NYC are crazy! Love them. 

Ta-da! 
So there you have it. Now you know lots of hugely important information about me all the way from "Age" to "Zoo animal!" 
I just love fun facts.

Getting ready is the most tedious thing in the whole world. I never thought about it being a chore but yes, yes it is.

So with you on the getting ready thing - I don't know what I would do with my morning (solve world peace?) if it didin't include a blow dryer. ;)

I think I might have known that you had 5 little sisters, but I never really put it together in my head... WOW! Growing up in a house of 6 girls is incredible! You guys must have had lots of fun swapping clothes and such! =)

Mac & cheese from scratch is the best! What cheeses do you like to use? I'm a fan of gruyere, jack and cheddar! YUM!

I had a blast doing this on my blog and it was just as much fun to read your answers!
Happy Wednesday!
