Frivolous

I'm looking forward to digging into all of the great questions you've given me to think about! I noticed that not one of you asked a frivolous question, so I thought I would borrow this list from Prairie Chick's blog and give it a go. (Unfortunately, it is not nearly so fascinating as her list in this post, but...) I'll start on my long list of answers for you on Monday!

(Feel free to play along, as always! Leave me a comment to let me know you've posted your list.)
