1.  Do you say Aunt like can't/ant or haunt?  Ant

2.  When grocery shopping do you use a cart or buggy or ???  Cart

3.  Do you say soda/pop or something else?  Sody....I'm from Missouri/Illinois area and I knew of a few other people who called it this, too. My Grandma even called baking soda "bakin' sody" so I guess I came by it naturally.

4.  Do you read the Sunday sales circular or the sales ads? Sales ads

5.  Sweet tea, unsweetened tea?  If you drink hot tea do you use cream in it?  Ice tea with splenda and lemon. Hot tea with splenda and milk

6.  What is your favorite cheese?  Hmmm...I like most cheese, but probably cheddar is my favorite.

7.  When you were young what did you think you wanted to do career-wise as an adult?  Did you do it or choose something else?  What is your career choice, and yes a SAHM is a career choice?  I wanted to be a teacher or psychologist when I was young. I ended up being a Family Resource Advocate for several years and am now a Certified Medical Assistant. However, in January I'm going back to school to become a Registered Dietician.

Ant

cart

both, but usually pop if it is in a can/bottle and soda if it is coming from a fountain (which I don't generally care for)

Nope

unsweetened iced tea, but with extra lemon; no cream in hot tea

I like a lot of different types of cheese (don't care for stinky or REALLY strong ones, though), but I guess my favorite would be fresh cheddar cheese curds (so fresh they squeak when you bite into them!)

teacher ****il I realized what a PITA kids are, LOL); I taught Latin for a year as a Classics grad student, and taught a Psych 101 class one semester while a PhD candidate, but that's the extent of it

1. I say "ant"

2. I say cart. People around here say "buggy". I used to work at a grocery store and everyone would look like me weirdly when I would say "cart". 

3. I used to call all sodas "Coke" but now call them sodas. 

4. Sales ads

5. Unsweetened but with Splenda. No milk in my hot tea. 

6. My favorites are Dubliner ( an Irish Cheddar...so good !)  and Muenster. 

7. I always wanted to be a photographer-or a photojournalist. I'm a SAHM-just sorta turned out that way, but I do still love photography!!

On my side of the family, ant but on my husband's side haunt

It is a cart!! People here use buggy and it drives me buggy!

Soda. Pop makes me cringe and calling every carbonated beverage a Coke does, too!

Sunday ads

Unsweetened tea and cream only if I am not having lemon

Torn between a really great blue or an amazing Havarti!

I wanted to be an attorney, a horse trainer, a veterinarian, architect and a baker. I grew up to be a Director of Program Management for a large financial services firm, though my title changes with any reorganization or merger, I effectively have my tail on the line for millions of dollars of projects and resolve conflicts with senior leaders over choices to be made and am known as being both very tough and very fair and always get the job done. I expect the best at all times, but will give someone the world when they need it.
