I saw this a LONG time ago, but decided to finally do it.

Some of you know me pretty well, but for those of you that don't- I'll share a few fun facts ;)

That is my EXCITED face, after I passed my motorcycle class. Ridiculous. I know.

5 Words to Describe Myself

• Hustler-  Yes, I am being for real.  Ask my friends and they will vouch.  I am constantly maximizing any situation and plotting my next move.  I told my husband that I was worried about not finding a future career, and he assured me that he is not worried because I am always scheming and it will eventually pay off.
• JEW Frugal- My friends used to chant at me "Cheap-Cheap. Cheap-Cheap.",  which only made me more confident in my frugality.  To some people, frugality is a chore and leaves them wanting, but for me it is like a game to see how much I can save and very fulfilling in my bounty. (Don't get offended by the Jew comment either- my best friend is Jewish and she makes the joke more than I do!)
• Honest if not to a fault I am never mean, however I am not a sugar-coat<er>  I make sure that I say things tactfully, so as to not be disregarded, but  I wanna know if I have a booger hanging out...don't you?  
•  Dependent-  On my loving-oh-so-wonderful-I-don't-know-where-I'd-be-without-him-husband.  I was going to put independent because everyone wants to be independent and "strong", but then I realized that although I can fend for myself, I do work-contributing to our household, I do have a brain, yadda yadda yadda...I have been blessed with my best friend who completes me and because of him- I do not have to face the world alone.  It is not solely my burden to bare and I am extremely happy that  I have someone so wonderful to depend on and that I am "strong" enough to understand and accept that.
• Klutzy-  I like to claim to be a "graceful" klutz, but it doesn't always seem that way.  I usually catch myself and manage to keep it in control more than I used to, but when things happen...all you can do is giggle along with everyone else...I've embraced it and moved on!

4 Favorite Foods

           Fruits, Vegetables, Meat and Dessert...not a good enough answer? DANG!  Then, I guess....

• Benihana's Fried Rice
• Anything Pizza oriented- Lately, my favorite is Old Chicago's Pizza Rolls
• Sweet Potato Fries (and pretty much just fries in general)
• All things Coconut! Green Curry, coconut water, and of course- COCONUT PB

3 Things I'm Proud I've Accomplished

• Graduating college.
• Finding and locking down the man of my dreams.
• Surviving outside of Florida.  Never thought that would be possible.

This is my "Bring on the cold, COLORADO" face. 

I now have a cold-weather wardrobe, so I am ready!!

2 Favorite Workouts Favorite Pastimes

Although, I do enjoy Hot Yoga on occasion, I DO NOT like exercise enough to use it as my two #2's.

• Any activity that involves my husband.  Cuddling, movie watching, cooking, date nights, traveling... heck- even chores are better as long as we do it together.  If I spent every moment with this man for the rest of my life, it still wouldn't be enough.  I guess it's a good thing I married him ;)
• Relaxing.  Most of you probably wouldn't think of relaxing as a pastime, but I pretty much feel that when I'm not at work I should be relaxing.  Whether I am cuddled up watching a movie with Will, watching t.v. while blogging, traveling and enjoying myself, cooking a yummy new recipe or being what I call "productively lazy", I try to be relaxed in my state of mind.  I don't always accomplish this, but the most I can do is try.  There are many pastimes I like to partake in, but more importantly-  I want to feel relaxed while doing them.

1 Thing You Can Expect From This Blog

   Honesty and ingenuous intentions.   I may not win the "Blogger of The Year" award, but I will darn sure try to put my best foot forward and impart every bit of knowledge I have or learn in the process.  I'll also try not to bore you.  If I do, just smack me around a bit.  I don't mind ;)
