I sure like #13.
# 30 isn't bad, either.

Sure thing Val! Let's do it! I want to make homemade apple pie, too. I've never made it before. Have you?

Erin said...

I knew you'd appreciate #13 husband of mine, and I'm glad that you appreciate 30 as well. :)

You don't have to worry about #22. Between boogers and leftovers on the floor, kids are surprisingly great scavengers. Just kidding, just smash up some peas or something.

This is so funny. We have a lot of similiar interests. I just stopped biting my nails a few months ago (when I started taking pregnancy vitamins) but I never thought the day would come. You can totally do it! This is a great list and inspires me to make up a list myself, even though it's now March. It will be a much shorter list. :-)
