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. Caramel or chocolate?
Caramel!
2. Do you wear body sprays (aka body splashes)?
I do! I like ‘em because they’re light and don’t tend to give me headaches. I like the ones that aren’t too sugary sweet.
3. Something that makes you feel fabulous?
Goodness, this is probably going to sound super boring, but it is what it is. I really love wearing an outfit that fits me well. If the pant legs or the shirt sleeves are too long, or if whatever I’m wearing is just a smidge too big or tight, then I don’t feel super great.
4. A morning ritual that you look forward to?
There’s nothing like that first cup of coffee, oh my goodness!
5. A small goal you’d like to accomplish this week?
I’m going to write a little something every day. Even if it’s just a small little thing, it’s what I’ve got to do to get back in the habit every day.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

4. A morning ritual that you look forward to?
5. A small goal you’d like to accomplish this week?
1. Caramel or chocolate? I love a good quality caramel. I also love chocolate but it doesn’t satisfy me in quite the same way.
2. Do you wear body sprays (aka body splashes)? Nope. I’m an eau de perfume kind of gal.
3. Something that makes you feel fabulous? I can’t think of anything in particular.
4. A morning ritual that you look forward to? I look forward to peaceful moments. I’m a very early riser and love sitting down with a cup of freshly brewed tea and something toasted to eat while I watch the sun come up and the birds begin to sing. It’s a great way to ease into the day.
5. A small goal you’d like to accomplish this week? I have to go online to fill out the info to renew my driver’s license and then I need to start reviewing for the written test. Because of my age, I must go to the DMV in person for an eye test, a written test, and a new picture. I understand the rational, but I still think it is discriminatory against seniors. I’ve never had a ticket or been involved in an accident.
1. Caramel or chocolate? Caramel – with the exception of chocolate cake, I can totally pass on chocolate anything.
2. Do you wear body sprays (aka body splashes)? No, no staying power and my skin is really sensitive to synthetic fragrance to most just make me itch.
3. Something that makes you feel fabulous? I love having a professional facial every couple of months. I just glow afterwards.
4. A morning ritual that you look forward to? My Swiss water Decaf from Big Island Coffee Roasters in Hawaii. I actually am sleeping through the night since giving up caffeine except for a glass of homemade kombucha made with low caffiene green tea daily.
5. A small goal you’d like to accomplish this week? Get the new puppy to let me sleep until at least 6 a.m. 🙂
1. Caramel or chocolate? Depends on the quality. I really like Dove and Cadbury chocolate – Hershey’s and other bottom-level chocolate I can easily pass on. Cadbury Caramello is really good.
2. Do you wear body sprays (aka body splashes)? No.
3. Something that makes you feel fabulous? Probably the closest would be when I wear a brand-new item of clothing that’s made to a high level of quality, with an eye-catching print.
4. A morning ritual that you look forward to? Nothing much now. When I was a kid, it would be eating homemade waffles or French toast.
5. A small goal you’d like to accomplish this week? Deal with my medical bills. Not such a small task, really.
