Highlight of the weekend: Our friends got married on Saturday! I'm so happy for them and the bride rocked an awesome yellow dress that she looked great in.
Bath or Shower?: Bath to relax, shower usually.
Worst movie ever?: The only one that comes to mind at the moment is The Heartbreak Kid. DH and I watched the whole movie thinking it must get better, but it never did. We got a fun quote out of it though and always say, "I'm going to get savage!" when out in the sun.
What are you looking forward to this summer? Going to Maryland for my sister's wedding! Should be a blast, even if it means making long flights alone with DD. Blech.
Best airline?: I've had good service with KLM and LAN airlines. Really good! Worst ever was a transatlantic flight with Air Lingus (sp?). Like sardines I tell you!
Coffee or tea?: tea
What are your hobbies?: reading. Mostly romantic novels by Julia Quinn.
Highlight of the week end? So many! It was DD's birthday weekend. We had a little party on Friday, left her to the grandparents on Saturday for a day of spoiling while DH and I went tandem-bike-riding, then took her out and about in Paris on Sunday.
Bath or Shower? Shower.
Worst movie ever? Some movie with Sandra Bullock and Lake in the title that I saw on a plane once.
Best movie ever? Cinema Paradiso, off the top of my head.
What are you most looking forward to this summer? No more visitors in my home!!!! Time to just hang out and enjoy DH and DD on my own.
What's the best airline you've flown with so far? Hmmm... I need to think about this. I didn't mind Vueling for a low-budget airline, and JetBlue is pretty nice for this category as well.
Coffee or tea? Both, depending on my mood. But I probably couldn't live without coffee.
What are you hobbies? Traveling, yoga, browsing flea markets, and my job is my hobby to a degree (translating).
I wanted to do this last night but I passed out on the couch... so here goes.
Highlight of the week end? Finding out that the stones in my yard are actually light grey and pretty!
Bath or Shower? Bath when I have time to relax and sit there for an hour, shower to get clean.
Worst movie ever? Any action movie, I hate all those terminator type movies.
Best movie ever? Too hard to choose. Tim Burton always makes me happy though :-)
What are you most looking forward to this summer? Veggies from our yard, sitting in our yard, nice weather to actually be able to enjoy our yard. You get the picture. End of summer will be our vacation, eating our way through northern Italy, that's exciting too!
What's the best airline you've flown with so far? Northwest, but only because I got to sit first class. Otherwise probably Alitalia.
Coffee or tea? Coffee.

Highlight of the week end? Taking the ATA certification exam - the highlight was more being done with it than actually taking it :-)
Bath or Shower? Shower
Worst movie ever? Ambulance. There was some crazy ambulance chasing a guy down and it would even come out of service elevators and stuff.
Best movie ever? Yikes. There are lots of great movies, but as for one I can watch over and over again? Maybe The Princess Bride.
What are you most looking forward to this summer? Hopefully getting pregnant again, and feeling like I really accomplished a good portion of my dissertation.
What's the best airline you've flown with so far? Air France on a transatlantic flight (they were good but not great from CDG to Damascus). Awesome food, awesome IFE system, good service.
Coffee or tea? I've actually never drunk coffee or coffee products, so I'm definitely going with tea.
What are your hobbies? In theory hunter/jumper equestrian but I haven't had the time or money for it for years. Otherwise reading, cooking, gardening, and playing the piano and a few other instruments.

LOVE Forrest Gump. DH and I watched it (again--met the president of the united states again) the other day and I teared up as always.
Just realized I didn't say a favorite movie. That's ok. I have tons of favorites, but the ones I will always watch anytime are You've Got Mail, Notting Hill, The Whole 9 Yards, Love Actually (yay one sly bookworm!), and Interview With a Vampire. This last one is one of DH's favorites, but I've now seen it o many times I'm in love. Funny how that happens.
Worst movie ever? Ambulance. There was some crazy ambulance chasing a guy down and it would even come out of service elevators and stuff.
Say what?
Yeah, that wasn't a typo. I don't remember if it actually came out of an elevator (I watched it at least 15 years ago), but it was appearing places where an ambulance could not ever have gone IRL.

Highlight of the week end? We went to the movies and saw The Dictator. It was not my idea but I had a great time. We also spent a lot of time together outdoors. Oh, and I was happy that Chelsea won the Champions League.
Bath or Shower? Showers usually Worst movie ever? Train To Hell aka Hugh Grant's pre-fame "I need a rent check" bad idea.
Best movie ever? Dr. Zhivago, I just love that movie so much and also the book. What are you most looking forward to this summer? Definitely Egypt, but I love summer generally. I'll be outside swimming whenever possible and may perhaps squeeze in some fun weekends.
What's the best airline you've flown with so far? Virgin for long haul, Air Berlin for short haul. The worst airline I've flown with was United. I don't like the food, most of the service, or the entertainment, but in a pinch I'll still fly it.
Coffee or tea? Usually tea with lots of milk and sugar or sometimes the Eastern European way with lemon and honey. I am learning to appreciate coffee in certain cases but I'm very picky about it.
What are your hobbies? Let's just go with lots of variety, I do a lot of different things so it's hard to list them succinctly. I'm also very active socially. Let's just say that I love life.

Highlight of the week end? Being able to make a FREE bath ballistic at LUSH with DD. We both loved it.

Best movie ever? Too many to really name.
What are you most looking forward to this summer? I would say warm weather...but I'm wondering if I'll ever see it. I guess just hopefully being able to go out and see some things...not sure just what yet, any good ideas in England to do/see?
What's the best airline you've flown with so far? Haven't had that much experience.
Coffee or tea? Not really a coffee drinker yet, but not that big on tea either, just depends on my mood.
