This guy over at Black Coffee & Bourbon, a blog filled with uplifting posts about the joys of life, tagged me to write five random things about myself. Here they are in no particular order:

1. I love breaking the rules and learning on my own. My Mom used to get so irritated that I always refused to have her help me with my homework all through my school years - but nothing felt better than getting a good grade because I earned it. While other students in sculpture class were building teapots - I was building a life size man. I was so lucky to be blessed with Art teachers who just let me do my own thing. Check it:
2. 
   I am an Artist/Nerd. My oldest Brother taught me how to use a computer when I was 2 years old and have been addicted to them ever since (Thanks a lot Chip ). When I was 20 years old I met who is now my husband who has officially initiated me into the ‘nerdosphere’ - haha! I’m handy with HTML & CSS language as well as a paintbrush and clay!
3. I LOVE to cook and have several Recipe books that I’ve used probably only about 3 times. I like a good challenge, and find it hard to follow the rules My only dilemma is writing down my ‘made up recipes’ so I end up not being able to make the same thing the same way twice. Oh well…
4. I only read directions when I’ve exhausted all other sources. I prefer following pictures
5. I prefer a comfy style to a trendy style. I was known as the girl in high school who didn’t have a set style- but wore them all! HAHA! I guess I couldn’t decide/ or didn’t want to.

There they are, the first five random things that came to my mind. Here are some fellow bloggers I am tagging whose blogs I enjoy reading:

Amberfire.In.Us: This lady is a breath of fresh air to read her words. She reminds you of the peace of the world and encourages words from you. A conservative outlook on life and a reminder that though you may be down on your luck in some areas of life- doesn’t mean that you have lost your strength in other ways. She is so strong and so inspiring as well as a loyal - true friend.

Livin It In London: I met this girl through my Endometriosis section of my blog. We relate on that topic and have become close friends since. It’s so nice to have someone (though they may be 1,000’s of miles away - entirely on a different continent ) who you can vent to and relate on several topics. Her blog is about the musings of her life and adventures therein. A very fun read!

The Ink: He is so random with his posts and that is why it is so much fun to read his blog. You name it- he’s probably posted about it - take a look!
