smilings my favorite (:

&& other random things you should know about me ....

-Smiling really is my favorite. I am always laughing and joking around, and I think I a very funny. (other peoples opinions may differ but whatev) I truly believe that laughter is the best medicine and will do nothing but add years to your life. I even think laugh lines are beautiful because a person who has those, especially a lot of them, probably lived a wonderfully happy life.
-My favorite thing to snack on is frozen corn. I know it sounds weird but fozen sweet corn is absolutely spectacular. Plus its better than eating a box of cookies. && if I had to pick a second it would be peanut butter on whole grain toast. When the peanut butter gets all melty on the bread you know you've reached heaven. && if you are feeling really feisty add some bananas and a little drizzle of honey .. YUM!
-I love my dogs. Well technically they are my mom's dogs, and they live with her in Virginia now, but they are my favorites. There is Cricket,

who is our 25 pound Basenji and the worlds worst dog. I swear it is a good thing that I love her, because if something ever happened to my parents NO ONE would want that dog . But she is ours and spoiled and I love her to pieces. && then we have the best dog in the world Pippin.

She is a rescue who looks like a 40 pound Papillion. She has the feathered ears and all. We think she is a border collie/springer spaniel mix, but who knows. She has the sweetest eyes in the whole wide world and just loves you with all she has. She is my boyfriend's favorite. I also have a cat (he actually lives with me .. his name is Tiger and he is a very active senior citizen. (he is like 13?) And yes he is an orange tabby, I know we are original! But he loves me unconditionally and I am getting used to it being just me and him.

-Fall is my favorite time of year. I love everything about it. The weather, the temperature, the colors, football, cider, halloween && thanksgiving, the fashion, everything! When I get married I want it to be fall, like late oct/early nov. and I want it to be one of those perfect fall days where it is beautifully sunny/not a cloud in the bring blue sky, but the temperature is only about 60 degrees or less. Ahhh .. (:
-I have an amazing boyfriend who is also in culinary school. He is an army veteran who served an 18 month tour over in Afg. where he was wounded 2 days before coming home. He is my best friend && my complete favorite. And he will probably be the only one who reads my blog! Thanks babe! <3.

-I have a very substantial resume for only being 24 and have worked in a lot of different fields, from a florist to a flight attendant. Its all been pretty awesome and I have seen and done a lot of things that a lot of people my age have not. I am proud of everything that I have accomplished. I may not have a degree but I have done a lot of real time stuff. My life is pretty great.
-I have the best girlfriends in the whole wide world. They are all from so many different parts of my life its awkard getting them all together because they are all so different. But they all love me so very much and they all complete me. My friends definatly have very much helped me become the person I am today. Thanks Michele, Carrie, Amanda, Jenn, Cassie, Morgan, Megs .. and all my other friends you are all very awesome as well.

My brain has decided that is time for bed .. lol (&& when I type that I am usually laughing .. again see top)

Write more tomorrow ..
