I'm MJ. This is me becoming a Mrs.:
I love:
I love:
- My husband
- Cooking (not baking, with the exception of bread)
- Photography, in the form of Nikon
- Being crafty and learning to sew
- Dark hair (My hair is not that dark naturally!)
- Our church
- Being frugal and couponing
- Cleaning, organizing, and color coding. Also: my label maker
- Being green, recycling, starting to make my own cleaning products
- Family, extended, the whole crazy lot of them
- Friends - shout out to the Square!
- Proper grammar (though my writing on this blog may make you doubt that) and parentheses (as you will see)
- Reading books and (cooking) magazines
- Going to bed early. Also: getting up early
I dislike:
- The snow.
- Dairy. More accurately, cow milk. I barely miss it, and think the world could do with a little bit less of it.
- Television, especially television today. So. Much. Crap. I could watch reruns of The Nanny or maybe some DIY Network...but other than that...
- Raw meat. It makes me want to vom - but I deal with it to make yummy things with it.
- White sugar. And basically everything else of which the typical American diet consists.
- Car washes. I have no idea why.
More fun facts:
- The hubby might tell you that I am sappy. Many things make me cry. This includes commercials. Specifically, Folgers commercials, Disney World commercials and that one that ends with the son being the president.
- I love to travel, but tend to get some serious travel anxiety. I have been to eleven countries and most of the states, but am one of those people who prefers to get to the airport freakishly early. Also: my luggage has likely been to more countries than me, as it seems to get lost oh-so frequently.
- We are an old-married couple at heart. If we have the free time, we like to do things like play Hand and Foot (that's a card game, folks).
- I fear that I am slightly socially awkward. The Hubby tells me this is not true, but I think he just says it to be nice. I would definitely fall into the introverted category.
- The Hubby "bought" me a piano when we were dating. I had grown up playing the piano, taking lessons for years and years and was really missing it in college. So, the Hubby jumped on Craig's List, found a freebie piano that was in good shape, and sneaked it into my apartment for Christmas. Big red bow and all.
