I am Alive!

Yes, blogging world, I do exist. Of course, no one reads my blog, so it doesn't matter!

I read this on Jennifer Stewart's blog and I thought this might be a great way to get blogging again.

What is your current obsession?
Paper bag albums. I found larger paper bags at the grocery store and decided to start making some. I'm also obsessed with iced coffee with LOTS of non-fat milk and a pump of vanilla.

What is your weirdest obsession?
Hmm.... probably making lists and having to have hard copies of things. I was trying to do something last night only using the computer and was about to scream, wanting a pen and paper in my hand. Oh...and I can't go to bed with the kitchen dirty. And I can't get into the bed unless it's made up first.

What are you wearing today?
Plaid bermuda shorts and a V-neck T-shirt. Comfy and looks okay when I go out.

What’s for dinner?
Mexican - slow cooked green chili chicken and then make-your-own tostadas, burritos, soft tacos - whatever you want. Oh, and homemade Ina Garten's guacamole (thanks to Brenda McDermand!!)

What would you eat for your last meal?
In-N-Out burger Double-Double with grilled onions, fries and Diet Coke.

What's the last thing you bought?
I went grocery shopping this morning. Does that count?

What are you listening to now?
Kool-FM

What is your favorite ice cream flavor?
Anything with chunks of chocolate and caramel.

If you could have a house totally paid for, fully furnished anywhere in the world, where would you like it to be?
Well I have a house paid for in Scottsdale Arizona. If I could have a second paid-for home, I would choose either San Diego, Tuscany or Germany.


If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go?
The Black Forest.


Which language would you want to learn?
I would like to perfect my German.


What's your favorite quote (for now)?
"Finish strong." Don't know who said it, but I like it. My 2nd favorite is "Go all out."
­
What is your favorite color?
Hard to say. It depends. For clothing I like pink, turquoise, khaki. For the home I like sagey green, tan, red.


What is your favorite time of day?
Early morning is great, before everyone else is up.

What is your favorite piece of clothing in your own wardrobe?
Cropped pants, tanks

What is your dream job?
After being a wife and mom, I would love to do something creative &/or working with people.

What's your favorite magazine?
Scrapbooks, Etc., US Weekly, People, Creating Keepsakes

If you had $100 now, what would you spend it on?
Something crafty, even though I don't need anything more!

Do you admire anyone's style?
I admire the style of Carolina Herrara. Her clothes are timeless and classic.

Describe your personal style?
Not sure I have a style. But I'm getting there!

What are you going to do after this?
Make lunch for the girls and see if I have more work. The In box is a little empy right now!

What are your favourite movies?
The Sting, Sound of Music, Elf, The Notebook, Return to Me (to name a few)

What's your favourite fruit?
Watermelon, pineapple, banana

What inspires you?
creative magazines and websites

Do you collect something?
I used to collect angels, but I have nowhere to put them now - we don't have chatzky spots at this house - so they are packed in a box. Rob would say I collect crafting stuff!

Wow - that was fun! Now it's your turn!
