This is me.

So... Wanna know a little bit about me?

I know, I am very "quiet" when it comes to talking about ME -- but I have been faithfully posting my projects on this blog for an Official Two Years now! I suppose maybe it's high time you got to know just a little bit about me?


Here are a few little-known (and very random) facts about yours truly:

I dance in my kitchen, but never in front of my husband. I am sure my neighbors have seen some very, er, INTERESTING moves through the french doors/bay window in my kitchen. If they have, I certainly hope they will never tell me so to my face. I'd rather dance obliviously!

I cannot sleep with my hair touching my neck or face. I also can't sleep with it pulled into a ponytail or braid of any kind. I sort of sweep it up over the top of my pillow and out of the way.

I hate seafood.

When I was a little girl, I wished my name was Nancy. Why Nancy? I have no idea! I didn't even know anyone named Nancy!

I still play with dolls. Wait -- you already knew that! :o) Ha ha!

My new, most recent favorite album is Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, by the band Phoenix. I don't think I will ever get tired of it. Lately it is my "cleaning music" -- and the kids know exactly what's happening when I turn it on and crank it up. They start helping me pick things up!

I cannot STAND to smell like food.

I've never gotten a speeding ticket -- or any ticket for that matter. And I've only ever been pulled over once.

I don't do dishes without my Gloves of Power --> rubber gloves. My current pair is purple. If we go to the cabin, the gloves travel with me. I do not do dishes without my Gloves of Power! :o)

My socks never match -- and I mean NEVER. At least, they haven't in 15 years! Unless nylons count....


There you are. Ten random facts.

    What a great picture of you! I like being able to put a face with a blog. :) I love seeing all your projects, thanks for sharing!!

    I'm with you on the hair thing. Once I get comfy in bed, I spend at least a minute trying to sweep all the hair off my face and neck. In fact, since I've been trying to grow my hair out, I hate it on my face and neck all the time, so it's always in a ponytail! :)

    Nice to meet you! I've been reading, enjoying & learning from your blog for a while now & don't remember seeing your pic on it before. It's nice to put a face to the writing.

    I love that you won't let your husband see you dance! Mine is not allowed to witness that with me either :)
    This goes along with your "Smell like food" and "Gloves of Power" but it's funny to watch you put on your plastic baggie over hands when cutting onions thing.
    Have a happy-pinkie-Valentine's Day!

    My husband thinks I'm crazy with the whole no-hair-touching-me-while-I-sleep thing. I'm glad to know I'm not alone! :) (And it's NOT crazy. It's comfortable!)

    You're so beautiful! I'm so happy to finally get to see the face behind such an amazing blog :)

    I hate seafood too, and I won't eat at certain restaurants because I know I will smell like them when I leave. Gross!

    Thanks for sharing this post with us :)

    you are so pretty! and your facts were awesome. I once tried to come up with 10 things that didn't revolve around being a mom and that sucks.

    I'm so glad you don't match your socks either! I started matching mine only a couple months ago when I had to be "professional," but I try not to match on saturdays, just because I can! :)

    You dance in the kitchen? Nancy? I've always liked the song "dancing nancies" by Dave Mathews. Happy Valentines Day wifey, love you.

    I've been reading your blog for a while now and I was feeling a bit like I knew you. Now it seems more legit. Your list makes sense to me... especially the current fave album!!

    Thanks for sharing. I do the exact same thing with my hair, and my husband once caught me dancing to loud music, and when I realized he was in the room, I dove behind a closet feeling very embarrassed:) I didn't know about Phoenix, but I just looked them up and I quite like them.
    Oh, and then I always buy only black socks so I won't have to match them (boring, I know).
    Nice to know I am not alone with my eccentricities:)

    I'm kind of a lurker here as I'm a book blogger rather than a quilting blogger (though I some quilting--LOVED your disappearing nine-patch series last year and it gave me courage to finish my own project). It's always nice to meet the face behind the blog. ;)

    Nice to get to "know" you a little. I always sing at the top of lungs when on the treadmill, unless I am really running. Neighbor heard me once and told me so, I asked if it sounded terrible, he said not at all. So you may be entertaining your neighbors, just saying you never know! LOL ;0)

    Care.

    Oh, hello! I saw your face and had to do a double take to make sure I was on the right blog! Very fun random facts, though your hubby would probably just join in on the crazy dancing!
