Heather of Implausible Yarn bestowed upon me the Beautiful Blogger Award! Thank you so much Heather. Sometimes it can feel pretty lonely out here in blog land. But appreciation like this, along with my loyal commenters, makes it worth the effort.
As part of the Beautiful Blogger Award, I have to share 10 things about myself that you might not know about me. Being a very private person, this is a challenge.
1. In my previous life, I was a lawyer. I gave that up to be full-time mom.
2. When I was a girl I read every Hardy Boy book I could get my hands on. Now, I read every Ian Rankin book I can get my hands on.
3. Greece is one of my favorite places on the planet.
4. I've rediscovered belly dancing which is something I haven't done since my twenties.
5. I love satirical British comedy.
6. Although I am a good at sewing, I hate sewing!
7. I still blast the stereo listening to the music of my youth like the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith and Elton John. It's on vinyl of course, although I do own an Ipod.
8. I'm an only child which means of course I am spoiled and self-centered. Not!
9. I'm an amateur bird watcher and take part in Cornell University's winter bird count.
10. I'd love to own a red Ford Mustang before I'm fifty. I'd better get a move on!

Congrats to you, and it was nice to learn more about you! I love british comedy too:)
Oh, how funny! Thanks so much for the nomination!!
Oh Thanks.
I've been blogging for seven years so it's going to take some thought to up with 10 things you might not know about me that I actually want to share.
I'd love to go to Greece..great getting to know you better!
Aw shucks...thanks for the nominations and congrats on yours. It was fun to read your 10 list.
What a fun list! I enjoyed learning more about you. And thank you for honoring me by adding me to your list. :)
Thank you so much for nominating me! You have quite a bit in common with my daughter. She is an only child and she recently took up belly dancing.
Thanks for the recognition. I can certainly identify with lots of things on your list - Ian Rankin, The Hardy Boys, BritComs and blasting the stereo ...
It's quite fun to read other people's blogs; it's like having a conversation over the fence with a neighbour!
Can we take turns sharing the red mustang?!
Thank you for nominating me! I feel like a celeb!
Thanks so much for the mention.
