Up close and personal.
I’m feeling a little out of sorts this week, so I thought I’d post something lighthearted. Thanks, CourtneyJo for the idea!
1. I love Brazil Nuts.
2. I’m an iPhone Geek. I even have a special Macro Lens for my phone’s camera.
3. I have a secret addiction. The Vampire Diaries.
4. I create new meals on the fly and I rarely measure anything. However, I don’t enjoy cooking–it’s just a necessary evil.
5. I buy a bottle of Trader Joe’s Merlot every week.
6. I usually wear the same earrings every day.
7. If given the choice to spend money on either books, clothes or chocolate, I will always choose books.
8. I wish I had the money to buy my own kiln. I dream of making pottery.
9. I say a small prayer type thing whenever I see a dead animal alongside the road–it’s not a religious type thing, more like an apology.
10. One of my favorite contemporary artists is Michael Parkes. I own several prints of his paintings.
11. I sometimes wear the same socks for more than two days straight.
Amanda Makepeace's Imagination Run Amok 
Wow — cool! I have several Michael Parkes posters and a book of his art! 🙂 I like your close-up of the sweetgum ball —- the arboretum near me has a few of these trees, and I love taking photos of these weird seedball-things — so spiky and cool.
Another Parkes fan!! That’s so awesome! 😀 I use to have a HUGE collection of his prints, but when I moved to the UK I got rid of a lot of them. 😦 So now I’m building up my collection again. LOL
Up close those sweetgum balls almost look like some alien creature with multiple mouths.
What a great idea for a post! I may just follow your lead … maybe on my b’day month (yes, it is a while away … mumble, mumble, November. lol.)
It is fun getting to know you Amanda; you are quite an interesting individual. I like that you copped to wearing socks (sometimes) more than one day in a row. I won’t tell you how many times I wear the same pair of pants in a week: I don’t like doing the laundry, and so I recycle probably more than you. 😀 … I crack myself up! lol.
Oh by the by, my boss noticed your comment at the Shelf Life blog (my work blog) and asked about you. Thanks so much being my ONE poster. Huge appreciation comes from me to you!
Don’t forget, most days I’m home, so I don’t think I need to share how that effects my fashion sense (or lack of). 😉
That’s so cool about your boss! I have the Shelf Life in Google Reader, so I never miss one of your posts. 😀
oh, and the seed pod does remind me of hungry birds … specifically bird beaks … it’s a little scary … maybe they are aliens. ^ . *
Yep. That’s what I’m thinking… 😉
