I've been tagged...

My friend Nancy has tagged me. I'm supposed to give 7 facts about me. I'm not good at doing this kind of thing. I guess I'm just not very interesting or something. lol Well, here goes nothing...

1. I love to read young adult literature. My latest read was A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray. Enjoyed it very much! Please share if you ever have a suggestion for me!!! I'm always looking for a new fabulous author!

2. I'm a "cool" color kind of person. There have been a lot of studies about this topic and all that I've read says that the majority of people are attracted to warmer colors (i.e. yellows, golds, oranges, creams, etc). Not me. I tend to lean toward the cool colors like blues, pinks, whites, greys, etc. Don't get me wrong. I like all of those, I just tend to gravitate toward the cool ones. (cool colors on left, warm on right)



3. Of all housework, I think I'd rather vacuum and do laundry then anything else. Which is funny because my husband tends to rather do the same. So, needless to say, we have to force ourselves to do the dishes and the bathrooms!

4. You can almost always find the following in my fridge... skim milk, eggs, a door full of condiments, romaine lettuce, and left overs. (thanks nancy)

5. I have had oatmeal for breakfast every day for the past month straight minus one day.

6. I had my nostrils waxed for the first time this weekend. Thanks Jaime! www.savvyesthetics.com Also, this weekend I met Jill. Check out the ADORABLE purses she and her mom make!!!! THE POSIE PATCH

7. I would love it if musicals existed in real life. Like in Enchanted when they just break out into song and next thing you know the whole park is singing!!!! I'd LOVE that!!! (Oh, and can I just tell you that I was thrilled to find out that I am YOUNGER then Amy Adams, the girl who plays Gisele in the movie! Now, if only I was skinnier!! ha ha!)

Now I guess I have to go tag some others - Danielle, Sam, Heather M, Melissa, Wynona, Tammy, & Sara. If you get tagged, the rules are that you must provide 7 facts about yourself and tag 7 others. (It would also be nice if you comment on the person who tagged you!!! ;)

Beautiful wood carvings

I've never really done product photography before, but my neighbor needed some pics of his new business venture. So, I thought, why not. These were all handmade in the Philippines by extremely talented men. It was a fun challenge for me.

Twilight

I'm a little excited to see this movie. I enjoyed the books (though I don't think I'm as obsessive as it sounds like some people are! lol) and I'm hoping the movie represents the best parts. I like the thought of people disciplining themselves to be better then they were "born" or created to be. The sad part about it all - Robert Pattinson's hair! Ugh - not crazy about that! The kids playing Emmett and Jasper seem cool. I like the "Jasper's" comment about Harry Potter brooms!! Ha ha!
