Aunt Becky, the fantastic author of Mommy Wants Vodka<\/a>, is hosting a contest on her blog for free stuff.\u00a0 Who doesn’t love free stuff?\u00a0 So all I have to do is answer questions.\u00a0 If only I was as witty as Becky, my answers might be funnier.<\/p>\n

1) Do you like sprinkles on your ice cream? Interesting question, Becky, thank you for asking.\u00a0 While those rainbow sprinkles add some visual interest, I’d have to say I only like the chocolate kind.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

2) If you had to choose one word to banish from the English language, what would it be and why? cockroach.\u00a0 Because even SAYING it gives me chills.<\/strong><\/p>\n

3) If you were a flavor, what would it be? Umm.\u00a0 Well if we’re talking about Ice Cream, I’d probably say Mint Chocolate Chip.\u00a0 Cause a lot of people are weenies and don’t like that (me).
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

4) What\u2019s the most pointless annoying chore you can think of that you do on a daily\/weekly basis? Easy.\u00a0 laundry.\u00a0 There’s too many steps!\u00a0 First you have to retrace your husband\/child’s steps and track down all the dirty clothes from all of the insane places they end up.\u00a0 Then the sorting, the washing, and the abhorred folding!\u00a0 And even after all that, you’re not done!\u00a0 You still have to put that shit away.\u00a0 Or so I’m told.\u00a0 Mine sits on top of the dryer until it’s time to wear it again.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

5) Of all the nicknames I\u2019ve ever had in my life, Aunt Becky is the most widely known and probably my favorite. What\u2019s your favorite nickname? (for yourself) No one gives me nicknames.\u00a0 I wear my fuck off face and they run away.\u00a0 No seriously.\u00a0 Um.\u00a0 Ok, I guess it would be Cupcake Lady.\u00a0 Cause I bring the sweet, yo!<\/strong><\/p>\n

6) You\u2019re stuck on a desert island with the collective works of 5 (and only five) musical artists for the rest of your life. Who are they? Foo Fighters.\u00a0 Jewel.\u00a0 Blue October.\u00a0 Dave Matthews Band.\u00a0 Hmmm.\u00a0 This 5th one is hard.\u00a0 Either the soundtrack for Wicked or maybe Avenue Q.<\/strong><\/p>\n

7) Everything is better with bacon. True or false?\u00a0 Patently false.\u00a0 Sandwiches, most main courses, even some vegetables, yes.\u00a0 Ice cream, cookies, potato chips, no way!<\/strong><\/p>\n

8 ) If I could go back in time and tell Young Aunt Becky one thing, it would be that out of chaos, order will emerge. Also: tutus go with everything. What would you tell young self? Take care of your body.\u00a0 Don’t continue to give 5 times as much to people who don’t give back.\u00a0 Happiness and love aren’t a magical gift, they are worked for, so enjoy your life. <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
