Ten Little Facts

             Sitting down after a long day - physically and mentally exhausted I turned to my laptop to catch up on my favorite blogs - quickly my mood became lightened as i read many of yours - they always bring a smile to my face.  I can't believe how many different types of people i have met, from all over - we each have a unique story that we unfold to each other sometimes each and every day - our deepest emotions shared - our ups and downs, good times and bad, recipes, loves, hates, struggles.  Yet although we may seem different - our love for blogging ties us together.

This week i received an award from the lovely Mel at neon flamingos and white peacocks  - if you haven't checked out her blog I highly recommend it!!! It's filled with lovely re

cipes as well as great fashion finds and amazing pictures - 

      Well here goes - 10 little facts:

1.  Yes I am obsessed with SUNFLOWERS - always have been.  They truly are my favorite flower - nothing brings a smile to my face quicker than seeing these majestic beauties blooming in late summer and early fall.  

2. I currently live in a condo on a golf course and do not know the first thing about playing golf!!   However i do get a kick out of sitting on my porch with my morning coffee and watch the daily golfers hit many of the golf balls directly into the pond in front of my terrace!!!

3. I have an intense fear of getting stuck in an elevator ever since I got trapped in one about 5 years ago.   It was 2 o'clock in the morning and I was at work in the hospital - i got into the elevator and then it just stopped between floors - i panicked, had to pick up the bright red emergency phone and be rescued by hospital security!!!

4. I've never had my hair longer than my shoulders.  For as long as i can remember i've had my hair cut very short.  I love it - its easy and fun!!!  Although there are times when i wish i had long hair (like for my sisters wedding) and have contemplated "extensions" but i love my hair!!

Every time i try and grow it out - i get frustrated and end up cutting it!!

5.  My dad breeds and races homing pigeons.  Yes - ever since i was little my dad has had these birds - currently he has about 100 of these amazing birds.  What is amazing is that they will fly distances up to 500 miles away and return to their birthplace in the same day.  Amazing right??

6.  To date i have probably delivered over 400 babies.  

Still to this day the birth of a child is truly an amazing thing.  Although stressful i still cannot believe what an experience this truly is.

7. I love FRUIT!!!!   Eat it with almost every meal -you will always find my fridge stocked with fresh berries and the like as well as see my counter stocked with a fresh bowel of fruit.

P.S. How cute are these bananas - they actually are mini-ones - hard to tell from the picture

8. My favorite colors are Yellow  and Green

9.  I must admit - i love wearing my Teva flip-flops in the summer and i love warm cozy wool sweaters in the wintertime!!!

10. Nothing beats a relaxing morning with a warm mug of coffee watching the sunrise!!!
