This blog post is a part of the ’20 Things You Might Not Know About Me’ Blog Tag started by April from Blacksburg Belle. She began this blog tag experiment to build community among creatives, help us bloggers to connect more and get to know each other better. This month’s topic is all about sharing just a little too much information about yourself. If you’d like to participate or want more info, check out the beginning post right here.
Question 1: How tall are you?
I’m only 5’3”. My husband is fairly short too at only 5’7”, so we are a good match.
Question 2: Do you have a hidden talent? If so, what?
I wouldn’t call it hidden, but I can make a very tasty margarita without using a mix.
Question 3: What’s your biggest blog-related pet peeve?
When images are not saved for web and a post takes minutes to load.
Question 4: What’s your biggest non-blog related pet peeve?
Crappy customer service, especially when it’s face to face.
Question 5: What’s your favorite song?
I’m such a passionate person when it comes to music that I don’t have just one favorite song. I am also really seasonal with my music. When the weather is warm and sunny I love some Bob Marley. Then during the grey and rainy months of spring and late fall I love feeling melancholy with some Radiohead and Tool. If I had to pick one, right now I’d say it’s “Best of You” by Foo Fighters. I always love me some Foo.
Question 6: What’s your favorite Etsy shop that isn’t yours?
Mostaza Seed Graphics
Question 7: What’s your favorite way to spend your free time when you’re alone?
Binge watching my show of choice on Netflix. Currently it’s Mad Men.
Question 8: What’s your favorite junk food?
Cheese Puffs!
Question 9: Do you have a pet or pets? If so, what kind and what are their names?
I have 2 cats and a dog. The kitties are named Sid and Itsy Bitsy (Bits or Bitty for short) and they are brothers from other mothers. They get along pretty well with the American Bulldog, Khloe, who was named after Khloe Kardashian. And she has a very strange fear of the oven when it’s on.
Question 10: What are your number one favorite nonfiction and fiction books?
Non-Fiction: I’m a Bible girl all the way
Fiction: Memoirs of a Geisha
Question 11: What’s your favorite beauty product or tool?
For a long time Bare Minerals were my must-have. But now I have an airbrush for my foundation and I am addicted!
Question 12: When were you last embarrassed? What happened?
I dropped my lens cap in the middle of a wedding ceremony – and it sounded like the loudest thing on earth. It felt like all eyes were on me but thankfully the minister didn’t skip a beat.
Question 13: If you could only drink one beverage (besides water) for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Unsweet Iced-Tea.
Question 14: What’s your favorite movie?
Again with naming just one pick, gosh it’s so difficult for me. I like any of the ridiculous humor from Will Ferrell and the likes because my husband and I can quote the lines to each other for a good chuckle on anyday. I also really love the movie Once. And a side note – the song from Once is my and my man’s wedding song.
Question 15: What were you in high school: prom queen, nerd, cheerleader, jock, valedictorian, band geek, loner, artist, prep?
I was the cheerleader/artist/mascot. and secretly I wanted to be a skater-girl. Maybe that wasn’t so secret. No matter what I was loud and outspoken.
Question 16: If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?
Somewhere the weather is pleasant almost everyday, where the air smells fresh and the only sounds at night are the sounds of nature. I think that might exist in the Smokey mountains somewhere.
Question 17: PC or Mac?
Mac for life. Tried the PC route to save money but it was just a waste of time for me personally.
Question 18: Last romantic gesture from a crush, date, boy/girlfriend, spouse?
My husband gave me a very sweet card for my birthday.
Question 19: Favorite celebrity?
Gwen Stefani
Question 20: What blogger do you secretly want to be best friends with?
Emily Thompson
