random facts


Today's 3 random facts about me:

1. I use about 4-6 dryer sheets per dryer load. My husband doesn't understand this. I find this extremely necessary so we can smell extra good. Only brand name sheets, no generics.

2. I have eaten a Greek yogurt (Fage [pronounced fah-yeh] is my favorite kind) everyday for the last month. Not on purpose, just because they are so thick and yummy. Krew has joined me many of the times. Has anyone ever tried them frozen? That genius thought came into my mind today while I was divulging in my little cup of goodness. I'll have to try it.

3. Tonight I asked Cameron if I could get my Christmas presents early... as in today or tomorrow. I'd even be willing to negotiate and wait until the weekend. And I'll re-wrap them on Christmas day and act extra surprised [enter fake surprised expression].
His response in the nicest words came down to "no".

Okay, your turn: clue me in on today's random fact about yourself my friend...

I keep losing baby spoons. And I think I just found most of them in my purse while looking for a dollar bill to buy a doughnut (I forgot my lunch for work today!)

Lindsay Rondo said...

I lose baby spoons and pacifiers all the time! I wonder where they all go because I can't tell you how many I've bought.

Urban Nester said...

Confession: I will only eat Fage Greek Yogurt as well! I have it every morning for breakfast with peaches, honey, and oats. So tasty!
I've never tried it frozen, I'm gonna have to though! Thanks for the idea :]

Lindsay Rondo said...

Yea!! Another Fage yogurt lover. That fresh fruit sounds good. And I love honey with it.

i tie my shoes with two bunny ears, instead of the whole loop-around method. i didn't like that method, so i refused to ever learn it. i plan to teach my children MY way.

Michelle (michabella) said...

I have never heard of Fage! I'll have to look for it next time I am at the grocery store! And 4-6 dryer sheets?! Really?! Too funny!!

1. For some odd reason I cannot keep track of what day it is this week. 2. The highlight of my week has been painting my nails at work. 3. I sometimes prefer hanging out with my pup over friends.

Haley said...

i'm totally trying the multiple drier sheets thing! :)

and I love freezing yogurt :) Here's what I've learned though...just freeze it for 1-2 hours, so that it becomes like frozen yogurt/icecream and not like a block of yogurt ice ;) And greek yogurt is definitely the way to go.

PS - you look LOVELY

jkd said...

I already did 5 facts on my blog, :)

but, I can totally relate to number 1). I always put 4-5 sheets too. I love the smell of fresh laundry.

Hollie Ann said...

I hope we can still be friends, I've never used a dryer sheet in my life :/

Rachel said...

Too funny! I love your hair in the post pics. I too use a bajillion dryer sheets. Especially on things like bedding. (I just don't let the hubby know) My husband and I always get a Christmas present early but err not this early. hehe.
Btw, my friend is doing much better. Thank you so much for asking.

lauren brimley said...

Two things:

1. Love your hairs.

2. I love greek yogurt! I am always trying to get people to convert to it.

Tasha said...

Just found your blog through a friend. We lived in the same building in tuscany small world!

Random facts:

2- Michael Jordan signed my head when I was a baby. My dad was a die hard bulls fan- he had no paper- made sense right? haha

Tasha said...

Jessica Sian said...

Mmmm, done-up blouses and statement neclaces - gorgeous!

A random fact is that I automatically start counting in my head every time I hear running water. Waterfalls could probably drive me to madness.

Diana said...

I LOVE your hair in these photos. If only mine was long enough to do the same...

Random fact about me:

I saw J.K. Rowling from a distance at one of the HP movie premieres in London. It was more exciting seeing her from a distance than other celebrities up close and personal.

Anonymous said...

Oooo, I'm so trying out your look in this photo - love, love, love it!!

Thanks for the visit to my site. I'm glad you came over (because now I know about yours and I can look at all your dreamy San Diego living...isn't sun just wonderful?!).

jessi bridges said...

My random fact is the opposite of your's. We use no dryer sheets, mostly because I ran out a couple months ago and everything seems to be okay without them. Plus, I'm not a smelly type of person. I used to just buy the ones without a scent :)

Thanks for stopping by my blog. I'm officially jealous that you live in SD. We moved away from there in March and I die a little inside every day that we're away from it. Hopefully we'll be able to get back there one day!

Haylee said...

haha I love the dryer sheet idea! I've never thought of that but I kind of want to start doing that now.
Fage is my favorite! I love it with granola.
Hm, interesting fact about myself.. how about that I'm currently eating spaghetti squash! haha, another favorite of mine.

dani press said...

random fact: i've always wanted to move to melbourne, australia for a year. who knows, maybe i will. thanks for sharing! xo.

Camila said...

Have you tried liquid fabric softener in lieu of multiple dryer sheets? One of my friends turned me on to the Downy ball and liquid fabric softener and it has changed my life. Even my kiddos' teachers asked me how come they smell so good at school!

Love the random facts....I love to make lists but don't like to end them on an odd number (that is lame. I will think of something better.)
