Ten Fun Things for My Lovelies

Thanks to both Amber and GraceyJ, I've been nominated to tell you a few things about, well, me. So here goes:

1. I grew up on a tree farm in the country in the Western U.S.

The view west from our house.

2. I was a cheerleader through all 4 years of high school, as a flyer, and senior year I broke my ankle when I got dropped. My cast was pink. 

3. If my entire wardrobe came from J. Crew and Anthropologie I'd probably think I'd landed in heaven. 

4. I love cookbooks. Buying an ingredient I've never used before is great and I love planning new meals. 

These were a Christmas present. From me, to myself.

5. I lived for 4 months in Madrid, Spain. I loved it.

La Mancha, like Don Quixote.

6. I love wind. It's my favorite kind of weather. When things are windy, it's like anything's possible.

7. I have three younger sisters: 20, 17 and 15. They're more important than I can even say. 

8. Someday I want to own a dog like this:

Yorkshire Terrier. My boyfriend and I have our eye on one as a "trial baby." Maybe in like 2 years.

9. I've had poison oak more times than I want to count. Avoid those shiny leaves my lovelies, it's awful. 

10. I like to write really cheesy poems:

I started writing about my life

I didn't think anyone would care

Then I found these wonderful people

It's like things are suddenly fair

So my loves I'm so glad you're around,

Thanks for everything you've done

I feel supported from the very ground

and you're like rays of sun.

Wow, that was actually worse than usual. But seriously, I feel so supported every time I read comments from you all and I love reading what's going on in your lives. Stay lovely.

Now it's my turn to nominate, I want to know 10 things about:
