In honor of Labor Day weekend and back to school season, I am teaming up with my fellow bloggers over at The Blended Blog for their September Asks!
- Love school or hate school? I loved school!
- Start school before or after Labor Day? We always started the day after Labor Day thanks to the Canfield Fair.
- Wake up: eager beaver or slow poke? Eager beaver! I’ve always been an early riser.
- Favorite breakfast? Oh wow, that’s a tough one. Probably scrambled eggs.
- Favorite cereal? Reese’s Puff was by far my favorite. However, I was rarely ever allowed to eat it!
- School uniform or no uniform? No uniform.
- New outfit for first day? Of course!
- Walk to school or ride the bus? I lived pretty close to my schools so my mom or dad would drop me off. However, depending on the year, I did ride the bus too!
- Backpack, tote or messenger bag? I started with the traditional backpack, but by high school I migrated to the messenger bag.
- Eat school lunch or pack lunch? Packed lunch, unless it was Baked Potato Bar day in the cafeteria. I loved that!
- Remember the little milk cartons? White or chocolate? I wasn’t allowed to drink chocolate milk at home, so if I would get milk at school, it would definitely be chocolate!
- Paper bag or lunch box? Lunch box, that was almost always pink.
- Favorite thing to do at recess? Four Square! Anyone else remember this?
- Favorite back to school supply item? Pens and pencils. I still have a pen addiction today!
- Chalkboard or dry erase board? Dry erase board most of the time. Some classrooms had chalkboards. I was never a fan of the chalkboards, especially the sound they make!!
- Regular pencil or mechanical? Mechanical. With spare lead in my pencil case!
- Homework as soon as you got home or after dinner? It depended on when I had tennis practice, but usually in the car on my way to and from tennis.
- Favorite after school snack? Anything with peanut butter. (see last Tuesday’s post!) I did love Bagel Bites but rarely had them.
- Favorite after school show? When I didn’t have tennis right after school, I loved to watch Clarissa Explains it All!
- Favorite school subject? Anything with history or social studies.
- Least favorite school subject? MATH. It was the only thing I didn’t like about school. I dreaded that class!
- Name of your best friend in high school? That’s a tough one. I had a few!
- High school mascot? Canfield Cardinals!
- SAT or ACT? I took both, but much preferred the ACT (for as much as you can prefer taking a standardized test!).
- Favorite year in school? That’s a tough one. Probably my senior year. I was very much looking forward to moving on from small town Ohio to head to college in Pittsburgh!
- Class ring or no class ring? No class ring.
- Attend or not attend class reunions? Not attend.
Thanks for stopping by, friends! See you back here tomorrow for an all new easy weeknight dinner recipe!

YAY!!! I loved reading your answers and finny thing is, I kew what some of your answers would be…I am an early riser too and am so glad. Too funny, you rebel with your chocolate milk!!! Hope you enjoy this sweet day off pretty lady!!
This is fun to read about other peoples experiences and preferences. I have a pen addiction too to this day. Extra fine points for me. I love that we all seem to love a good sugary cereal too. I guess some things are just universal. Happy Labor Day!
So fun reading these!! I forgot about Clarissa!! I liked that too! Our favorite and least favorite subjects are the same!! Have a great day!! Off to check out some of the sales 🙂
I love all those labor day picks. That interview is pretty cool. How was tennis? I’m currently doing cross country for my high school and it’s pretty great. Getting involved in school really makes a difference because you can meet new people, and improve athletically.

What a fun post! I’ve never seen this tag before, so it was fun reading the questions and your answers! Is the reason you weren’t allowed to eat some of those foods because your family was very health conscious? I was so bad with breakfast, I never ate it 😐 My diet was seriously horrible and a lot different than now, of course! I also love your picks, especially that green dress! Thanks for sharing and I hope you’re having a great holiday weekend, beautiful!

I love love this green dress! SO perfect for fall and it would look so cute with a fur vest over it too 🙂 And any time I can add fur, I’m in! Hope you guys had a great weekend, and good luck traveling to NYC! xo

Oh that jacket is everything!!
There were seriously some amazing deals this Labor Day! I’m trying really hard not to shop though, so I didn’t get a chance to partake. And I loved reading all of your answers to TBB questions! Neither Chris or I are into attending class reunions either. I feel like we stay in touch with the people that we want to stay in touch with. And I always loved my new first day of school outfit, until we got uniforms at school!
Yes to Clarissa Explains it all! I loved that show and her eclectic way of dressing! What baked potato bar at school, how awesome is that?! Thanks for linking up with The blended Blog!
