Who cooks in the house? -Leea
I’m gonna have to say me. Kate. I love cooking. It’s therapeutic for me in a weird way. I don’t get to do it often because we aren’t ever home, but I love the sense of control I have being able to do it myself. I may or may not be a control freak at times. I love it though. Chopping everything up. Watching things sizzle. Yup. Good times. My mom is a ridiculously good cook…she’s the best. When my friends and I would come over to my house for a break in college she’d have fresh baked cookies ready and put chocolates on our pillows. No joke. My mom is incredible. I can’t say enough good things about her.
How did both of you meet? -Michelle
We met at a music program (The Contemporary Music Center) during college in January 2003 in Martha’s Vineyard, MA. One of these blogs we will give you the whole spiel…Schpeeeel if you will.
What place are you most looking forward to visiting in 2010? Where do you go on vacation? Whats your favourite word? -Jason
Kate: I don’t think I have one specific place I’m most looking forward to visiting…there are so many great things about all the places we are going
I’ve never been to New Zealand though and am pretty excited I get to see it. I hear it’s like heaven. I’ll let you know. Home is where I like to go on vacation…haha…when you are gone so much, sleeping in your own bed and making coffee in your own kitchen can be the best vacation ever. But when I like to get away I am very much a tropical girl. Hawaii, somewhere in the Caribbean….give me a beach, some chips & salsa and a frozen fruity drink and that’s pretty much the description of the most perfect vacation…oh and a good book of course. I don’t think I have a favorite word. Hmmm…nope. Don’t think I have one…if ever I find my favorite word I’ll be sure to blog about it.
Jill: I love Australia. I always have fun going there so I think that is where I’m most looking forward to going this year. Kate was right. Home is the BEST place for vacation…whether it be Nashville-home or New Hampshire-home where I grew up. Okay okay, if I must pick a REAL place, I loved Maui when I went there a few years ago. My favorite word is: AWKWARD. I love spelling it out. I love words. I love palindromes and weirdly spelled words and everything to do with words.
Did either of you have a crush on Zack Morris (Saved By The Bell) or was A.C. Slater more your type?
-Amy
Such an original question….well done Amy. Definitely Zack Morris. Come on. No contest. -kate
Did any girl NOT have a crush on Zack Morris? A.C. Slater was cool, but Zack is…i mean WAS my definite crush. -jill
Any beauty product must haves for you two? Is Kelly really a cool, down to earth person like she seems? -Stephanie
Beauty products…umm…concealer, some eye liner and some lip gloss can do wonders in under 5 minutes. True story. We have to wear so much make-up for stage that on off days we generally don’t wear a lot of make-up or any for that matter
Yes, Kelly is unbelievably kind, brilliant, normal, super funny–we are honored to sing with her.
What is the one thing you most enjoy doing when you are on the road? -Jennifer
Kate: I love taking pictures out on the road or taking little videos. It’s a great way to document all of the things we get to do–sometimes I can’t remember what I had for breakfast yesterday so I think it’ll come in handy in 50 years to have some pics and videos to remind me of what went on back in the day.
Jill: I love to steal Kate’s pictures because I am not so good at documenting.
Also I read a lot, watch TV series, and write for fun. Oh, I mean…party so hard…yeah. Haha no…we are not really party hard people. There are cool people on the road too so it’s fun to hang out with everybody.

-i’d LOVE to hear the Martha’s Vineyard story some day!!!!
-both Hawaii, Maui, and home all sound good to me. sadly, i’ve only to one of those places (yep you’ve guessed it…my home haha)
-clearly Zack was the cutest. and always will be!
-when i’m on vacation or go to a special event, i’ll take 50, 100+ pictures and don’t even realize it until i’m home. i love taking pictures of every detail because i know i’ll forget about it 20 minutes later.
i’ve only *been* to one of those places
-and forgot to add that my daily makeup includes lip gloss and black eyeliner. so easy, and so effective!
Kate you need a fave word. Everyone has one! FIND ONE! hahaha no pressure!
But i love these q&a’s can we still send them in? I think it’s very interestingggggg haha like Jill and Kate classes online hahaha
thanks for the answers girls. i’m jealous of all the traveling you get to do. i used to watch saved by the bell in the morning while i got ready for school. i would now, but i get up at 4;30 and its not on. boo.
have fun on tour and thanks for blogging.
Kate, is it okay if I steal your mommy? Mine prefers microwave dinner. But really, I feel ya on the whole cooking thing. I think it’s really fun and definitely therapeutic.
Jill, you overused the word, “word” that it just sounded kinda funny.
“Sometimes I can’t remember what I had for breakfast yesterday..” when I began reading that, I thought you were going to say that you now take pictures of your breakfast. I was relieved that isn’t the case.
Yayay for more questions&answers. I was just thinking about you guys answering some, the other day. So yay!
Y’all always have great pictures from the road
Always enjoy them
Never been to Maui, which is kind of sad haha.
ooooh can we all ask a question? This is fun xx
I agree with Pam– I’d love to hear the Martha’s Vineyard story too! =]
Spelling Wednesday would have to be my favorite. lol
I’m SO jealous that you all are going to New Zealand this tour! I did a project on it in high school and have wanted to go there ever since! I hear the people there are the sweetest people ever!
And Jill, I am also a word lover.
Do you remember when we were the grammar police? Ahhh good times.
How could I forget?! lol We were (are) great! =] Yay for words and grammar! lmao
Thanks yall!!! Once again I feel we are always in your thoughts. Can’t wait for more. I know yall are havin fun… Keep your awesomeness up!!! Lol!!!
Oh yea hey Kate face word how bout “omelet” I love that word!!! Just say it over and over it gets funnier lol…. Maybe it’s just me but thought I’d share
Thanks for blogging and doing the QA’s… Its like opening little fun computer Presents…that help get a person though their work day ( well I slack at times and I come here & twitter and you all make me laugh )
You guys should write a musical. Like a ridiculous one yet one which is quasi-serious. I really think it would go down…
I think “omelet” means “little egg.” In French. Kinda makes sense I think. But it is just a guess.
Jill, I love palindromes too, haha…actually I really love words with the letter “q” in them…I just like writing that letter. Also, words with Q can quite often get you lots of points in scrabble…especially the word quiz…and queasy…oh, and quartz..and if you’re lucky enough to get the right letters, quickly can get you tons of points
haha, ok, I’m done now.
Kate, your mom sounds like a gem!
You all seem normal, fun, funny, kind and talented. Glad since you are away from home so often you can be with your best friends!
Kate, I think you should give Chuck Wicks a call! You two would make an adorable couple! Then again any of you would:) He just seems so nice, fun and down to earth like you gals.
Zack Morris, man, those were the days. Did y’all are Mark-Paul Gosselaar with Jimmy Fallon? He still looks the same! Well, almost.
Awesome for taking time to answer even more questions.
PS…Kelly? Who?
I love question and answer times. Thanks guys.
Wait…no Screech-lovers here? hee hee. I was pro-Zack Morris all the way. Two favorite words…”waddle” and “pamplemousse”. Yes the second one is French but I giggle every time I say it. It’s my nickname for my God son…yes, he’s my little grapefruit. Thanks for answering more questions!
Yay! It’s so nice to see you doing Q&A again.
I’ve missed it.
Kate’s mom sounds like quite the cook/hostess!
I’d definitely be up for a nice detailed story of the first J&K meeting.
My blog comments don’t always allow me to exercise my vocabulary much, but I’ve got an appreciation for words as well, Jill. Kate, if you ever discover your favorite, do tell!
I hope y’all are really enjoying the tour. Hopefully, the days over will allow a bit of a vacation vibe, so you can sight see, take pics, and relax.
I sent you a tweet about this earlier, but since appreciation was shown for Kelly in this blog, I figured I’d post about it here as well. Three years ago today was your first public performance as KC’s backup singers! Happy Anniversary!
days over? I meant days off. D’oh!
Note to self: Proofread before submitting, not after!
