So…what exactly is the Monday Poll?
Great question! It’s not really a poll in the traditional sense, you know, with clickable buttons. It’s merely a compilation of fairly random inquiries I’ve been sharing on this blog every Monday morning for what feels like a lifetime (since 2007).
1. What’s something you need to take care of for beauty upkeep soon?
Oh goodness, my upper lip is in dire need of some waxing. LOL! If I wait any longer, I might start resembling a villain with a curled mustache.
2. What’s a nice, beauty-related treat you’ve recently given yourself?
A friend and I visited the Cavallo Point spa in Sausalito about a month ago. I’m so eager to return!
3. Do you have a favorite word?
Honestly, I have countless favorites. Just to name a few: jaunt, effervescent, soliloquy.
4. Can you share a quirky habit of your pet?
Rosie snores quite loudly while she slumbers. (Sometimes it wakes me up!) Marnie enjoys taking her favorite tennis ball outside, but she isn’t actually interested in playing fetch. She just carries it around and runs about.
5. What’s the best side dish for Thanksgiving?
Does pecan pie count? Because that’s my main interest, haha! If not, I’d say mashed potatoes.
