Prompt Answer: Memorable Vacation
Describe your most memorable vacation.
Spring Break , 2009. The only time I ever went somewhere “else” for a Spring Break in college.
My old friend Geo and I road tripped to New Orleans just in time for St. Patrick’s Day and the crazy parades that come with it.
Good food, good times, and a lime green flip flop eaten by a graveyard.

Have you ever had surgery? What for?

Prompt Answer: Most Delicious Thing
What’s the most delicious thing you’ve ever eaten?
