My 11 random facts:
1. I could probably eat Chobani Greek yogurt every day for breakfast.
2. My eyes are greenish hazel. They look more or less green depending on what I wear.
3. I have an English degree, but can't remember the last time I finished a book. That's really sad, isn't it?
4. I love coffee, tea, hot chocolate, spiced cider... pretty much any hot beverage.
5. I speak a little bit of French. Probably not enough to carry on a conversation, but I can tell you a little about myself. Je m'appelle Katie, et j'ai vingt six ans. J'aime les romans et les films romantiques.
6. I love silly romantic comedies. Even though I know it isn't "great cinema," they just make my heart so warm and fuzzy. Sleepless in Seattle is my all time fave.
7. My husband and I married young. I was 18 when he proposed and 19 when we got married. (We celebrated our 6 year anniversary in August!) He is eighteen months older than I am.
8. I have a special place in my heart for ice cream. I could eat it year round, and sometimes do. Frozen yogurt is good, too. Pretty much anything cold, sweet and delicious is fine with me.
9. I long to travel the world. I've been to a few amazing places (Brazil, Scotland and Germany to name a few), but I was pretty young and would love to see more of the world with my love. I've been on more airplanes than I can count. Flying doesn't bother me at all. In fact, I think it's kind of fun to fly.
10. I've never been able to settle on a favorite color. Some days it's red, others pink, still others, green. I just like color, I guess. Color makes me happy.
11. I own a Canon Rebel t1i, and I'm ashamed to say I've never bought a lens or flash for it other than what came with the kit. I've only scratched the surface of what it can do, and I'd like to get better at it and eventually get some better equipment for it.
Questions from Sarah:
1. If you could have any career/job in the world, what would it be?
Truly? A stay at home mom. Maybe one with an Etsy shop, or a profitable blog. I'd like to contribute to my family, but ultimately my most important job is raising our son, and I wish every day I had more time to spend with him.
2. What are your daily website/blog visits/reads?
I pretty much scroll through my Blogger reading list every day and see what's new. I also visit Facebook and Gmail every day, and most days I check out Twitter and Pinterest.
3. What is your biggest pet peeve?
There are lots of silly little ones. I hate it when people chew loudly, use bad grammar, the word "ain't," or swear a lot. I also can't stand bad drivers- and that includes fast (slow down, are you trying to kill my child?!) and slow (hello, we have places to go!). Huh. Maybe I'm a pickier person than I thought. Or maybe I'm just PMSing.
4. What is your guilty pleasure?
Pumpkin spiced chai from a local place called Cool Beans. It's way overpriced, but so, so delicious.
5. Where is your favorite place(s) to shop for clothes?
Old Navy is usually my go-to. I only buy clothes that are on sale, so I like to "window shop" on their website, look at clearance items, and apply coupon codes until I'm happy with the total.
6. If you had to give up one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Work? LOL! Seriously though, if we're talking something tangible, maybe purses? I think they're overrated. My diaper bag is more handy than any purse ever was.
7. Most of you are mommies or mommies-to-be... if you had the entire day to yourself, what would you do?
Oh gosh, that hasn't happened since I don't know when. I'd probably get a pedicure, wander around Target, eat a hot meal, and then come home and watch a girlie movie in peace.
8. What do you see yourself doing in 5 years?
Still working, still in love with hubby, still changing diapers. We will have added a second munchkin by then, and will be busy, but happy. Maybe we'll be in another house.
9. What is your favorite thing about yourself?
My husband may not always agree, but I think I'm a pretty patient person, especially when it comes to "mommy things." I never lose my patience with Colin, even though he tries to test it sometimes. :)
10. What's your biggest source of procrastination other than reading my blog? :)
Pinterest! I don't think I've put a certain idea from that site into practice yet.. but that doesn't stop me from creating new pinboards and pinning everything I see!
11. What chore do you absolutely hate doing?
Folding and putting away laundry. It just feels so time consuming and repetitive.
