Favorite Fives

I found this neat idea over at According to Jewels who found it at The Frisky Virgin and it’s been offered up for all to share. Be sure and go read those two ladies, you’ll be glad you did. This is a great way to let you all in on a little more of the party that goes on in my head. Take it and put your own list of 5’s on YOUR blog. This was MUCH more difficult than I expected!!
