My 100th Blog Post & An Award

I've hesitated to write this post because it's my big 100th post and I felt pressure from myself to write something either super meaningful, out-of-the ordinary or "100 themed".


Instead, I think I'll just thank everyone for reading over the past year or so and make a promise to myself to start dedicating more time to writing and reflecting.

I know I still owe a more thorough Italy recap so that's coming too.

In the meantime, I also wanted to thank Cassi at Cleverly Disguised as a Responsible Adult for the "Kreativ Blogger" award she gave me!


The rules:
1. Thank the person who nominated you for this award. (Thanks, Cassi!)
2. Copy the logo and place it on your blog. (see above)
3. Link to the person who nominated you for this award. (done)
4. Name 7 things about yourself that people might not know. (see below)
5. Nominate 7 Kreativ Bloggers. (also below)
6. Post links to the 7 blogs you nominate. (ditto above)
7. Leave a comment on each of the blogs letting them know they have been nominated. (they are coming!)

Seven Fun Facts about Me!
1. My favorite color is green.

2. I'm extremely allergic to mosquito and bug bites, and have welts on my legs most of the summer months.

3. If nutritionally feasible, I could probably live on cheese alone.

4. I regret never learning to play any kind of musical instrument.

5. Am addicted to online shopping, even if I don't purchase. I mostly fill up virtual shopping carts and then empty them. And repeat. With a just a few purchases here and there. It's like window shopping from my couch.

6. My mind is much more creative than my hands can keep up with. I always think of cool things that I should sew, paint, draw, print, carve, sculpt, re-purpose, etc., but first I need to teach myself to do all of those things!

7. My first job was at a sno-cone stand and I grew to love shaved ice (not those hard ones shaped like a ball but the soft shaved kind). However, I have never found ONE sno-cone stand in Chicago. I'm thinking of looking into opening one.

Well there it is. And here are 7 other bloggers who have commented on some of my 100 posts over this past year or so, and whose blogs I always enjoy reading. Here's your award!

Enjoy!

About Me

I'm a St. Louis native, but I have been living in Chicago since 2005 and am loving every windy minute of it. I enjoy cooking (more-so eating), home decorating and really anything creative. I'm a supporter of DIY & handmade goods, a fledgling foodie and a connoisseur of kitsch. I spend my days filling online shopping carts, emptying them and repeating the process all over again. Most of all I love spending time with my husband, Dave, our first child, Claire and my dog, Louie.
