Wednesday Fun

So I woke up this morning with a scratchy feeling in my throat that has progressively gotten worse as the day goes on. When I feel sick, I get crabby - who doesn't? It also doesn't help that it is very grey and dreary out. I need to get out of this little funk I am in, so what better way to do it then by participating in a little Wednesday fun! :)

I just visited a new blog by a girl named Renée, which I really like. On this blog, Renée posted the following questionnaire. I just thought I'd take part as I actually find these mindless questionnaires quite entertaining! And hey, maybe I might have something in common with some of you.

I see that you own a horse and that you ride! That's awesome! I always wanted to do that, but never had the chance.

I love reading surveys! Always fun to learn random little tidbits :) I too would LOVE to max out my credit card splurging at IKEA!

Rare steak is one of the best things in the world.

I wish I could kick my terrible coffee habit for tea - how did you get to drinking white or green tea on work mornings? I feel like I could never do it since I always feel icky when I don't have caffeine.

@Rachel

Switching from coffee to tea was actually pretty easy. I literally just stopped buying coffee (I would always make it at home) and started with the Tetely Blueberry Green Tea. It's so yummy. I drank that religiously for a while and now I just go for mainly green or white tea. Fill up my big travel mug on my way out the door (leave the bag in) and I'm good for the morning!
