11 Random facts about Myself
-  I grew up in Sherman Oaks, California
- I was an Fine Arts Major at the University of Denver
- I used to do the production travel for all of Universal Studio's TV Shows and Movies
- I went to Emily Griffith Opportunity School for clothing design
- I have a website where I sell one of a kind hand knit clothing and accessories
- I love anything with rhinestones, lace, and ruffles.  The sparklier or lacier the better
- I think you should always look at the desserts on a menu before ordering dinner, that way you can save room for dessert.
- I married my divorce attorney, but did not know him before I was getting divorced, and didn't start dating him until 8 months after I was divorced
- I asked him out and he is the love of my life
-  I love wearing flip flops
-  I just found a pair of Emilio Pucci sandals at Mercer Street Consignment in Denver for $72.00 (they were probably only worn once)

1.  What is your favorite Jane Austen book?  I am ashamed to admit I have never read Jane Austen, but I have read Gone With The Wind more times then I can count.
2.  Pick just one:  chocolate, hard candy or licorice? Strawberry Twizzlers
3.  What is your pet peeve? dishes in the sink and an unmade bed
4.  Can you speak a different language (other than English)?  (If so -which one?) I speak spanish poorly, my husband calls it pidgeon spanish
5.  Do you have a garden & if so what kind (veggies, fruit or flowers)? I have flowers, herbs, and berries
6.  What is your favorite artist? (visual artist)?  I love Picasso, I went to the Picasso museum in Barcelona and it was amazing
7.  What kind of perfume/cologne do you wear? I have become allergic to perfume as I have gotten older, so I can no longer wear it.  Though my favorite perfume is Fracas, it smells like gardenias.
8.  What is your favorite "Great Lake"? (If you are not from North America then just pick your favorite lake) I have only been to Lake Ontario when I was 13.  So I guess that would be it.
9.  Who/what motivates you?  My husband motivates me to be the best person I can be.  He is the kindest man, who lives his life with more integrity then anyone that I know.
10. Skiing:  down hill, cross-country, water or none? Downhill and water, but it has been years.
11.  Without looking this up on google - what is the quadratic formula?? - quick!!!
I have not idea what a quadratic formula is!!!  My major was art.   Wrong side of the brain.

  3. That sounds like a wonderful love story - how you & your husband met.
    I am also attracted to anything sparkly - my husband always says that it is a good thing that I'm not a trout (ha haha).
    It's so funny - everyone that I've tagged so far has given the same answer for the "quadratic formula" question ("no idea answer"). The quadratic formula is from high school algebra (x equals negative b plus or minus the square root of b squared minus 4ac over 2a).
    This was alot of fun - I look forward to going through your tags.
    Thanks
    Angie

    1. I do love those shiny things. My daughter says I'm like a bird.
      Yep now I know what a quadratic formula is. Don't know when I'll use it, but it's good to know.
