Friday 5

Friday 5: BRRRRR!

What’s your favorite thing about cold weather?
Pretty much the only thing I think of that I like about cold weather is the clothes–layering blazers and cardigans, sweaters, boots and scarves!

Soups and hot beverages seem to be everyone’s favorite cold-weather culinary combatant, but what’s another food that seems to take the bite out of the cold?
I like chicken pot pie as well as chicken & dumplings in colder weather.

When the weather is just starting to turn cold but is not yet in full frigidity, what do you add to your bed until it’s time to break out the heavy artillery? (I said what, not whom!)
Nothing, really. We’ll get out our space heater to put wherever Lo is sleeping (either our room or hers) but that’s it.

What household chore seems especially unkind in these colder months?
All of them, all year long. Haahahaha.

Among people you know, who seems most oblivious to cold weather?
Humm, I don’t know if I’d say oblivious but Aunt Amanda loves cold weather, cause she’s insane.

I would walk 500 miles, and I would walk 500 more.

I’ve had “I’m Gonna Be” by the damn Proclaimers stuck in my head all day. I remember the first time I think I ever heard it, I was in Nashville with Lesley and we thought it was THE GREATEST song ever. Or at least I remember thinking that, maybe she didn’t, but I don’t doubt it. I remember hoping and hoping I’d hear it again before I had to go back to Hendersonville.

Jenn posted this meme and tagged anyone who hasn’t done it yet. Which is mez.

My first print

My first print

Many people have already seen this in person (and it’s technically now Tuesday) but Jenn’s Photo Meme Monday was to post a picture of something you’re proud of. This was my first encounter with designing something that was actually going to print (I don’t count the Ray Scott poster at Warner Brothers, I wasn’t aware it was going to be printed beforehand). I’m only taking baby steps but it sure feels good!
