it’s always nice to read about what people love right? well, here is a list of what i love, along with some of my neuroses {and I seem to have a few *ahem*}…can’t wait to get to know you!

• i am a linear person, i like things aligned, labels facing out, things orderly – this affects the way I photograph, the way i scrapbook to the way i organize my pantry (you don’t even want to ask about my closet!}
• throughout my blog you’ll notice i have a lot of {bracketed} thoughts…this is normal…for me. i have a lot of side thoughts…which i think are funny
• speaking of funny, i used to think i could do stand-up comedy {hidden secret}…until i realized i laughed more at my own jokes than making others laugh {i think people laugh at how unfunny my jokes are…}
• at one point through school, i really wanted to become a forensic scientist
• i discovered a hidden love for Starbucks, especially their fraps and chai lattes
• epiphany of the true meaning of “unconditional love” ~ birth of my son
• i love wine ~ especially a good glass of gewurtztraminer or malbec
• i met/found my soul mate and best friend 12 years ago, and married him a little over a year ago {i’m a lucky chica}
• danger! i’m highly attracted to shiny things
• i love to scrapbook ~ there is so much creative freedom and expression
• i am a list person ~ not a day goes by i don’t have a to do list
• i love to shop ~ i will rarely ever tell you NOT to buy something
• friendships are a two way street ~ that means work on both sides!
• i never had a real nickname…until a few years ago when a few girlfriends decided to call me “mir”

xx, mir
