PGAD: 2/7 Two Truths & a Lie

[allyanne]

Hello Sweet Shoppers, and welcome to day seven of our delicious birthday celebration! I just have a simple game for us today. To play, you will tell us two truths and a lie (but in random order), and the person posting after you will need to guess which things are true and which one is a whopper! Participants will win this piece of our "A Hole Year Older" collab, a card pack from the ever-fabulous Erica Zane:



You have until NOW until midnight on February 10 to participate.

Remember, if you play along with all 29 challenges (yes it is leap year!), you can enter to win your Wish List (including 18 kits)!
The deadline for completing the challenges for the Wish List drawing is midnight ET on March 3.

I will get us started:

1. My dad was a milkman in Portland when he was a young man.

2. I love Japanese food, especially sushi.

3. I can't sleep in and love to get up early.


(It would be fun to see the correct answers! After the person below you guesses, feel free to edit your original post to let us all know if you fooled us or not!)
