About Me

Well, I'm not feeling all that inspired today, so I'm going to just grab one of those facebook list things and fill it out. Maybe the world can learn something super (not) interesting about me. 😏

• Favorite smell- Freshly cut grass. Also, honeysuckle. Our neighborhood is filled with honeysuckle, and I love to sit on our back deck and inhale it. Weirdly, I also like the smells of coffee and pipe smoke. I think those smells remind me of growing up.
• First job- Corn pollinator for Pioneer Hybrids. Hated it!
• Dream job- Being a wife and mom. If I need to be paid ... maybe a historical archivist.
• Astrological Sign- Libra
• Favorite foot attire - Barefoot if at all possible. Otherwise, flipflops.
• Favorite candy - Anything dark chocolate.
• Favorite ice cream- Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey. It's my go to ice cream when I need ice cream therapy.
• Pet peeves - Racism. Unkindness.
• What are you listening to right now -- Nothing. I can't listen to anything when I'm trying to write. If I wasn't writing I would most likely be listening to an audiobook.Current audiobook: Lord of Scoundrels by Loretta Chase. I know. It's total fluff.
• Favorite condiment - KC Masterpiece BBQ sauce or honey mustard
• Favorite Holiday - Christmas by far.
• Favorite book - Soooo many. I love Jane Eyre because it never ceases to move me. I have a hard time choosing just one book. I've loved lots of books for lots of different reasons. I love to read! You can see a previous entry I made about ten(ish) books that I loved and why HERE.
• Favorite day of week - Saturdays, I guess. 
• Favorite animal - hmmm. I don't know. I used to say cats, but maybe pandas or koalas now.
• Tattoos - No tattoos for me. Tattoos done right can be sort of cool in a way, though. Unfortunately, not a lot of people get them done right. They tend to only look right when a person has the muscles to flaunt them. Once the skin starts sagging? Not so cool anymore. They aren't for me, but I do get why people get them.
• Like to cook - Sometimes. It's not a passion for me, but when I have to cook I don't mind it so much.
• Can you drive a manual transmission- Yes. Thank you, Joe Hettinger!
• Favorite color- Purple
• Do you like vegetables- Yes
• Do you wear glasses? - Yes. But I usually wear contacts
• Favorite season - Spring. Where was spring, 2018? I missed you.
• Dream Vacation- A Mediterranean cruise visiting Greece and Italy. And then I'd love to grab a train and bop all over Europe. Then I'd like to finish up in Jerusalem. It'd be the best!
