I'm a tomboy so I loved to play football, baseball, basketball, kick ball, volleyball, and dodge ball.

I am great at strategy and trivia games so I also loved board games and playing cards.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I hated dodge ball!
I am so clumsy, I couldn't get out of my own way, let alone a whizzing ball.

I liked

hopscotch
Uno
Old maid/go fish

Yup, little ol'nerd child here.

If you were to celebrate Chinese New Year at your house, what would you do, and what type of foods would you serve?

 

[ADisneygirl]

How old will you be on your next birthday, and do you have any plans?

This QOTD falls on my son's 18th birthday!

I will be 45 on my next birthday in December. No plans yet.

If you were to celebrate Chinese New Year at your house, what would you do, and what type of foods would you serve?

I've never celebrated Chinese New Year before. I don't even know when it is. I would guess we'd pick up our favorite chinese take out to eat if we did.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Clean the house in the days before, because we can't clean during the celebrations. The belief is you will sweep away the good luck.

44 My birthday falls on Cinco de Mayo, which has always been a wonderful way to celebrate! Margaritas--yum!

If you were to celebrate Chinese New Year at your house, what would you do, and what type of foods would you serve?

DSs love Chinese food, so take out for sure. I always say I'd love to learn how to make steamed dumplings or egg rolls...maybe this year.

I like this!! Can I use this excuse for other holidays as well???

 

[MickeyMamma]

Hey guys! Sorry to be MIA for so long. Things are settling down a bit again so I thought I would pop over to say HI!

If you were to celebrate Chinese New Year at your house, what would you do, and what type of foods would you serve?

We live near and AMAZING Chinatown area. In the few days around the New Year, we take the kids over there for a nice Dim Sum celebration (The kids love having Dim Sum and there are always the special dishes that they have out.) It is also really nice to just walk around and see all the decorations. We just steer away from all the firecrackers.

If I were serving, we would have TONS of dumplings - again a benefit of being close by, all kinds available.

If you were to take up a new hobby, what would it be?
