Blogger Award

I have been awarded the Versatile Blogger Award from Brittany at Gallery No. Eight.

If you haven't been by her blog then you are missing out. Her blog is such a visual treat and I love her blog header, clean, creative and simple. She is such a sweet and devoted reader.

Thanks Brittany!

So, I need to tell you seven things about me. When I received the Stylish Blogger Award early on in the year, I shared 10 things about me.

Now I am going to add seven more:

1. I am left handed, yes I am a southpaw {where did that name come from anyway?}

2. In college I studied pre-medicine, but then met my husband and the rest is history.
When I was pregnant with our first I took pattern drafting at a fashion design school to enhance all the fashion design I took in high school {I had a fabulous textiles teacher}.
Once all 3 of our kids where in school full-time I went back to get my 2nd degree in Education. Now I work as a teacher on call on a part-time basis.

But...I regret studying architecture which is what I toyed with while in the midst of studying my first degree

3. I am really bad at cliches and jokes. I can never get them straight. My husband likes to tease me about that.

4. I think it would be fun to be a drummer in a band. No, I have never played the drums but feel I have a good sense of rhythm after all those years playing piano with the Royal Conservatory.

5. I love the colour red {and black & white}.
I got a gorgeous red leather bag for my birthday and love it!
