1. Smooth Peanut Butter all the way!

2. I have a lot of wishes... but these are the first three that spring to my mind: Wish #1 - that I will get pregnant quickly and have a happy, safe and healthy pregnancy resulting in a happy, safe and healthy baby. Wish #2 - that we could afford a house in the school district that I am coveting and that we could sell our current house for a profit and move before aforementioned baby comes a long. Wish #3 - that a cure for Fatal Familial Insomnia(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatal_familial_insomnia) will be discovered in my lifetime.

3. I am not a huge app person. I also have limited space on my phone right now due to all the photos and videos I have on there, so not a lot of room for apps. I am planning to upgrade my phone in September when my contract renews, and hopefully will get something with a lot more space so I can play around with fun apps and still have a million photos and videos stored!

kh826 - I've heard of FFI, and it's horrible and terrifying to even consider. Does your work deal with the disease, or do you have a family connection?

1. I prefer smooth peanut butter - but I don't have an aversion to crunchy, either.

2. I'd be the smart-ass that wished for more wishes...honestly. But given just 3, #1 - enough money in the bank to live the rest of my life comfortably with the resources to travel (we're business owners...we always think about money). #2 - a safe and healthy pregnancy with a take-home baby. #3 - advances in fertility treatments.

3. I couldn't survive without my Weight Watchers App on my phone!

crazyaunt84, Family connection, unfortunately.

ps - wittyandwaiting, look at you every day! I'm impressed friend!

1. Crunchy or Smooth peanut butter? Good one. Smooth and best when melty. Delicious.

2. If you had a magic lamp and a genie who granted you 3 wishes, what would the 3 wishes be? Yikes. I think if they could be anything they'd look something like this...
1. Cure for MS. Brother bear has it. I'd love to see him live a long full life the way he wants it.
2. Health for my family in general. If I know people aren't suffering or sick, we can find our happy.
3. Enough money to live the way we'd like to, and be able to help those who don't have the necessities.

3. Favourite app on your phone or tablet and why? Pinterest. Because crafts.

1- Smooth!!

2- 1)A healthy pregnancy and a take home baby. 2) money of course (enough to live comfortably, give some to family, and be philanthropic 3) good health for my family

3- I use Facebook the most, but I would say favorite is probably Pinterest I guess.

1. Crunchy or Smooth peanut butter? Crunchy. Y'all are a bunch of weirdos with your smooth preferences!

2. If you had a magic lamp and a genie who granted you 3 wishes, what would the 3 wishes be?
(These are all wishes that impact me in some direct way; I would actually have different wishes about living in a more socially just world and what not if I truly got wishes)
1.) That babies didn't die (in the womb or outside of it) and that this was retroactively true
2.) That any people who wanted to have a baby (and were reasonably old enough) could do so easily and together with their combined genetics (or that an individual person could have a baby easily; you don't have to be in a couple for this wish)
3.) That parental leave was generous and extensive everywhere.

3. Favourite app on your phone or tablet and why? My Settlers of Catan app on my ipad where I also have the Cities and Nights expansion. I really enjoy playing it and it helps settle me down.

1. Crunchy or Smooth peanut butter?
Grew up a Crunchy girl, now it's Smooth all the way.

2. If you had a magic lamp and a genie who granted you 3 wishes, what would the 3 wishes be?
1. That this baby is born healthy, with positive birth experiences for all involved.
2. That we have enough money to (as said above) "Love comfortably, give to family, be philanthropic."
3. Health for all of my family,

3. Favourite app on your phone or tablet and why?
Facebook, because I use it the most. If my camera wasn't so full that I can't take more pictures, it would probably be that.

[wittyandwaiting]

1. Smooth!

2. First wish, a new healthy baby human. Second, love and happiness for DS and my future child(ren). Third, a happy and healthy life.

3. I love BuzzFeed because I am a random fact / news junkie.

[ionaerebor]

1. Crunchy or Smooth peanut butter? Smooth. I never used to like it at all, because I could only get crunchy. It wasn't until my step-mum introduced me to the smooth kind that I was like "A yes, this is wonderful"

2. If you had a magic lamp and a genie who granted you 3 wishes, what would the 3 wishes be?
1. That we a happy healthy baby in the next year, and that I have a happy and easy pregnancy.
2. That my best friend gets the job he's applied for, so he will live in the same city as me, instead of a nine hour flight away.
3. That they find a cure for, or way to absolutely prevent, dementia.

3. Favourite app on your phone or tablet and why?
NASA's Be A Martian App, it's so cool.

1. Crunchy or Smooth peanut butter?

smooth, never crunchy

2. If you had a magic lamp and a genie who granted you 3 wishes, what would the 3 wishes be?

Financial security
3-4 kiddos
progress on stroke recovery

3. Favourite app on your phone or tablet and why?

Currently Loseit! but a close second is NPR/Weather Channel
Loseit because things just fall in my mouth if i don't have to write them down
NPR because I don't like our local station and can't watch our local news
Weather Channel only with the recent crazy weather I check it constantly

this!!!!! I want so much to have a baby with my wife...

edit to get out of the box

Folks, you are wrong. Crunchy is clearly superior.

2. If you had a magic lamp and a genie who granted you 3 wishes, what would the 3 wishes be?
One - That I could have a healthy baby (or two!) that carried my genes and Sweetie's. I just wish for that so hard.
Two - I'm gonna go with financial security. Or just a boatload of cash to get us through the grad school/down payment on a house/baby period. As it is, we have to make tough choices and prioritize a lot. It'll work, but it could be so much easier.
Three - I would wish away terrorism and religious extremism that leads to violence.

3. Favourite app on your phone or tablet and why?
I've been playing Hay Day a lot recently. It's a stupid farm game, but I really like it, and I find it soothing.
