15 Things You Didn’t Even Know You Wanted To Know About Me
11. I. Love. Cheese. You can make almost anything taste better with cheese and you can never have too much.
12. I believe in ghosts and I would LOVE to take a tour of some of America’s most haunted cities.
13. One day I’m going to own the penthouse across the street from my building!
14. I dream every single night. Vividly. Like watching a movie in my sleep.
15. I started asking my teachers about colleges in 5th grade {nerd alert!} and am a proud graduate of Longwood University!
16. I watch way too much TV and enjoy every minute of it.
17. Some of my favorite shows include Criminal Minds, Scandal, Revenge, and Grey’s Anatomy. {can you tell I’m totally into dramas?}
18. I’m a hopeless romantic casually manifesting the love of my life.
19. I’m an extroverted introvert {which really confuses frustrates some of my family and friends!}
20. My favorite season is fall. I love the smells and the colors and the weather. Fall in Virginia is beautiful perfection.
21. In April 2015 I packed everything I could fit into my tiny Hyundai and set off to live with a friend and her husband in Michigan. {But we’d never met in person before!}
22. My perfect vacation is leisurely relaxing in a beautiful hotel room with lots of books and a notebook for writing. I’m not one of those adventurous vacationers who likes to do a ton of sightseeing or activities. I recharge best in the quiet.
23. Music speaks to me and you can almost always tell my true mood based on what I’m listening to. Some of my favorites are acapella, country, and SOME top 40. A lot of that stuff I just don’t get!
24. I’m not happy unless I’m color coding something. From my Google Drive to my planner if it’s not color coded I doubt I’d know what’s going on.
25. I’ll watch pretty much any movie once, although I’m not generally a big fan of sci-fi or fantasy. My guilty pleasure movies are disaster movies. Good or bad I love to watch freak storms destroy New York, volcanoes spring up in the middle of LA, and astronauts thwart giant comets headed for earth! {Can I get an amen for Sharknado?}
If you’ve hung around this long I’ll officially consider you a super-fan! Thanks so much for taking the time to visit Cook. Craft. Love. and for getting to know a little more about me!
