3. Go back to New Orlean's without kids

4. Live in a city again

5. Swim with dolphins

6. Learn to bake cheesecake - well.

7. Learn to bake tasty pies.

8. Go to New York

9. See a Broadway Show

10. See Kristen Chenoweth Live

11. Eat a fish/shrimp taco

12. Visit San Francisco

13. Have a beach vacation at one of those beach houses you see on tv/the movies.

14. Go to Crate and Barrel - not just online, an actual store.

15. If I'm going to continue living in the states, I'd like to live somewhere that has a Trader Joe's. With wine. Because in this state they don't have wine.
