Kirin Christianson - Top 15

People's Choice Award

1. Which celebrity do you think you look like?
Alan makes me laugh daily, and date nights are no exception. Now that we are empty nesters, our new favorite activity in our tiny town of 300 people, is trivia night at a local small business. It's a team effort answering the most random questions, and we usually spend the entire evening laughing - especially at our wrong guesses. If you haven't done Trivia Night, I highly recommend it for a good laugh!

2. Which do your prefer? Talking on the phone or texting?
The two most important things in my kitchen are: 1) My husband because he does 99% of the cooking. (Hey, there are perks to having your hubby's next book be a cookbook, and he has to try out delicious recipes with you). 2) Our water filter. Boring, but true - I love drinking water (and not much else).

3. What’s something you only do when you get bored?
People assume that I'm glam all the time. Yes, I love expressing creativity through fabulous fashion, but my style is simple and classic - even on days when I'm not dressed up.

4. Are you overly loyal to any clothing brands?
Have you ever been a girl scout leader to over TWENTY adorable, little first graders trying to earn a badge? It's like herding cats. As a business owner, I can tell you with 100% certainty that it's harder, and requires more leadership skills than building multiple companies. God bless little girls!

5. What is the biggest risk you have ever taken?
One time I was offered a small role in a scary Christmas movie. But I hate scary movies so I refused to be in it. I don't regret turning it down. However, it's the only direct booking that I questioned if I should have faced my fear and just gone for it. Perhaps having that behind-the-scenes perspective would have made scary movies seem less scary?
