Qs for you!
1. are you more of a cake person or an ice cream person? ice cream, all day, every day.
2. favorite flake cereal? when i was a kid it was frosted flakes. tony the tiger was my homeboy. but now i am all about the nature’s path heritage flakes! try them if you haven’t!

Ice cream over cake definitely!
My favorite flake cereal right now is Nature’s Path Mesa Sunrise Cereal, so good!
Lucky lady ;) I love all the Q+A hehe. I ALSO love the ice cream cake! Yumyumyum and seriously, peanut butter on anything makes the world a better place lol. By the way, Matilda says hellooooooo :D
1. Ice cream! I’m picky when it comes to cake, but I’m more easily won over with ice cream :D
2. Hm.. that’s a good question. My favorite cereal isn’t a flake cereal BUT I think I would like a flake cereal with cinnamon and raisins :)
XOXO
ah, right on — fiance def. doesn’t roll off the tongue. Just shorten it to “fee-ons”. Oh, I like the sound of that.
how did you know I was wondering if you ate ice cream before lunch today?! ;)
love you, pie!
p.s. another question for you — did you know I have a legit girl crush on you?
I love ice cream cake – but only the way my grandma makes it – Angel Food Cake (bundt pan) hollowed and fill with ice cream and “frosted” with Cool Whip – YUM.
Your pb & j yogurt cup looks so, so, so divine!
Ooohh ice cream for sure!! I enjoy Optimum Blueberry if that counts! :)
I cannot describe to you how delicious that brekkie looks all mixed up. I am more of an ice cream person, but will never pass up on ice cream. And getting married in a flower center is such a brilliant/beautiful plan!
I’m a frosting person…I usually don’t partake but if I do I eat the frosting and leave the cake!! Just the opposite of the average “healthy” chick ;)
awww really jealous you get to do the bodpod, I want to so bad!
Dang girl, all of your eats look SO good! I love the greek yogurt + jam + nut buter combo. Whoever invented that is genius!
I am a cake girl!!
And Nature’s Path Heritage Flakes are my flake cereal of choice :-)
Cake AND ice cream together! But ice cream would be my first choice. I had BR cake last week for my 4yo’s b-day and guess who had the most? It started innocently enough just skimming the outside of the frosting until the square cake got smaller and smaller and um, wait, there’s just a square inch left! lol Enjoyed every bite!
Oh my gosh, I can’t wait to hear more about the wedding location! Awesome!
Really, is there anything more comforting than your favorite mug? Mine is on a boat to the US and I miss it SO MUCH!
1. Depends on the cake, so I’m going to say ice cream. Ideally, both.
2. Corn flakes, with sprinkled sugar on top. This is totally different than Frosted Flakes. ;)
fun Q&A post. btw it STILL sounds weird for me to call kyle my fiance, and its been almost a year now. soon it will be hubs and THAT will be SOOOOO weird, hahaha.
i like the third dress best.
