So…what is the Monday Poll?

Excellent question! It isn’t, contrary to its name, an actual poll, like with little clicky buttons. It’s just a list of more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007).

1. Do fragrance ads make you laugh?

Yes! I think most of them are silly. They’re usually people running or rolling in the sand looking semi-drenched, holding instruments or whatnot and staring into the camera.

2. Eye patches for skincare: love ’em or leave ’em?

I mean they feel good at the time, but I don’t really notice any difference. But I won’t say no if somebody offers me a de-puffing pair for underneath my eyes.

3. Favorite berry?

Strawberry.

4. Have you ever jumped from a high diving board?

Not a man-made one, but I jumped off the rock at Waimea, which is pretty high. I’m guessing 25 feet? Technically not a board, but I still jumped!

5. Favorite taco?

Fish! I love breaded fish tacos. Mmm…

6. Which one freaks you out more: earthquakes or tornados?

Tornados, for sure. Very scary to me. I’ve never been through one. I have been through earthquakes before out here in California.

7. Your favorite hiking spot?

The Fairway Waterfall in Novato. It’s an easy 1-mile hike in the foothills through oak and strawberry tree forest to a small 30-foot waterfall and shallow pool filled with salamanders. It’s very cool!

8. Whatcha doing today?

After breakfast of eggs, fresh papaya, French toast, and Portuguese sausage, we’ll probably head to the beach and get shave ice after.

Yes, we’re in Hawaii! We’re visiting family here this week.

9. Favorite dress length and why?

I like dresses that are slightly below the knee, but not quite midi. I like the feeling of being a little more covered up from the longer length, and I don’t feel like they make me look shorter than I actually am.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

P.P.S. Aloha from Hawaii! Rosie decided she needed some time to herself with her favorite cat sitter, so she sent us all the way across the Pacific Ocean. Right now I can hear waterfalls in the background, but I won’t go chasing them… They’re actually manufactured ones at the place we’re staying, but still very pretty. Enjoy your Monday. Talk to you soon.
