1. What would you like to be having for dinner?
"Either a cheese, hand-tossed Pizza Hut pizza or turkey, mashed potatoes and corn."
2. What is in your CD player right now or who is your favorite artist?
"The sound track from 'Chicago.'"
3. What kind of car do you drive and why?
"A Jeep Cherokee Laredo because after four minivans, it's not a minivan. "
4. What was the last movie you saw and why?
"Actually, it's on the Hallmark channel this week. My favorite movie of all time. 'The Thornbirds' -- a great mini-series about a priest who falls in love with a woman he can't have. The old forbidden love thing."
5. What is your must-see TV show and why?
"OK, don't laugh. 'Little House on the Prairie' because it centers me. It makes me wish I lived during that simpler time in history."
6. Where is your favorite place to eat out and why?
"Of all places -- a little sidewalk cafe in Cozumel, Mexico. The food is insanely good, and I love the atmosphere of the place. I love watching people."
7. Who is your idol and why?
"I don't like the word idol. I do have my heroes, though. My husband of over 20 years, Dave, because he's such a calming presence in my life and is such an incredible person. My four children because each of them taught me something about myself."
8. What is your favorite alcoholic drink?
I don't drink.
9. What is the craziest thing you did in college?
"I should probably plead the fifth on this one. Actually, I think it's probably when I was on my first date with my future husband. I was dancing on the table, and my dress caught on fire. It apparently caught his attention. This is all I should probably confess to."
10. Have you ever cheated on a test?
"Yes, in the eighth grade. Math test -- got busted and from that day on was afraid to even let my eyes leave my paper. Back then, teachers really didn't care about political correctness and could say or do anything they wished for the sake of discipline. It was a life lesson I really didn't want at the time. And my dad followed up on the life lesson once he found out. So trust me, the point was clearly made."
