Friday's Fab Five

1. What is your favorite ice cream flavor and brand?
So Delicious Coconut Almond Bars are delicious!  Yum! 

2. What is your favorite flower?
I love roses!  My favorite type of rose is Marianne.

3. What is your favorite drink?
Water is generally my drink of choice, but I am also a fan of unsweetened iced tea & strawberry smoothies.

4. What is your favorite game? (cards, board, video, etc)
We are a family of board game fanatics!  :-)  My very favorite game is Settlers of Catan (particularly with the Cities & Knights & Seafarers expansions).  I could play Settlers of Catan all day long and never tire of it.  LOVE that game!  A few other favorites include: Robo Rally, Ticket to Ride, ArkadiaCitadelsApples to Apples, Loaded Questions, Pirate's Cove, The Great Space Race, and any movie trivia game.  My favorite card games include:  Three Thirteen, Shanghai Rummy, GuillotineTryce, Sleeping Queens, and Phase 10.


5. What is your favorite music artist/band?
My favorite band changes from day to day (and possibly even from hour to hour), but lately I've been liking Secondhand Serenade a lot.

This fun meme is hosted by Froggarita's Bookcase.  Every Friday Froggarita asks five questions so we can all get to know each other better.  The only rule is that you can't use the same answer twice within your five!   Ready to play?  Leave your answers in the comments or leave us a link to your own Friday's Fab Five post.  :-)

I'm a huge Settlers of Catan liker too. I love to play the game, but Corey has become sick of it, so I don't play it very much anymore. :(

I also love Secondhand Serenade. He reminds me of someone, but I can't put my finger on it. It's been driving me crazy for like a year.

Jenni - I wish we lived closer to one another so we could have game nights together! :-) Sorry to hear that Corey isn't a fan of Catan anymore. Honestly, I am kind of amazed that I still love it as much as I do after so many years of playing. There are definitely a few other games (like Carcassonne) that I used to like but have grown tired of. Anyway, if you ever want to play a game of Catan online, drop me a note & we can meet on AsoBrain for a game of 'Xplorers' (which is basically a generic version of Catan). Secondhand Serenade reminds me of someone else too, but I can't figure out who it is. If you ever figure out who he reminds you of, please let me know! :-)

Justine - Yum... Turtle Trails! Coconut milk ice cream is so creamy and delicious. Love it! My favorite brand is Coconut Bliss (in the Naked Almond Fudge flavor). I love California poppies too. I haven't played Backgammon in years. I'm not sure I'd remember the rules now, but it sounds like a fun game to dig out of the closet and re-learn. Thank you for sharing your Friday's Fab Five answers! :-)

Violet! It has been so long since I've stopped by, I'm so sorry. :)

Love board games. I only wish it was easier to get groups of people together to play and keep the little ones entertained while we do. Haha.

How fun, I love this fab five idea.
