Beautiful Blogger Award

I participated in a fun game with Amy over at Whisper Wood Cottage about whose blog inspired me the most.  I chose Layla at The Lettered Cottage and you can read my comment along with the others' here.

Amy has asked that we list 7 things about ourselves and then pass the award onto 15 more Beautiful Bloggers.

So without further ado here are some random musings about my life...

     1.  My favorite color in decor is red, whether it be a dash of it here and there or a whole painted room.

     2.  White/black enamelware is one of my largest collections along with some colored speckled pieces thrown in for good measure.

    3. In 5th grade, I won my school's spelling bee.  My mom tested me for months and the hard work paid off.

    4.  I enjoy traveling, road trips and weekend excursions.

    5. In April of 2006, I traveled with my family to Maui, HI.  It was the best vacation by far!

    6.  I eat mostly organic food, pasture-fed meats, and wild-caught fish.

    7. My favorite scripture verse: Philippians 4:6
