Randomness

I've gone and done it again. I've skipped a day of blogging that turned into too long (I know ya'll have been there)! Yikes!

I've been a bad blogger and a bad blogging friend.... 

There hasn't been a spare moment to log on a read all of your blogs - let alone type up some posts!!!

(but here I am again...)

So here is some randomness to fill you in:

First - let me just say, I wish you all had the ability to smell my apartment right now. I just made a fabulous potato soup (with corn, beans, grean beans, and cheese) which is curing my case of the blues - due to the fantastic gloomy-sleet-snowy weather we have going on Japan today.

• Not all mozzarella cheese is good for pizza. Some will turn it into a hot-soggy-mess.

• Pants that have a tag that warns against "bleeding" will turn your skin blue.

• Apparently, "fancy clothes" is a dead giveaway for a New Yorker. If only this 8 year old could see my hometown. [Not.so.fancy.]

• Even when you think you are on top of everything, there will always be something else do to.

• BSB (Backstreet Boys) are still hot and currently touring in Japan.

• Functioning on limited zzz's makes my fuse much (MUCH) shorter! [Watch Out!]

First of all:

Heather @ Riding the Roller Coaster gave it to me, so Thank you!!!!

Here are the 7 not-so interesting things about me:

1. I never ever buy clothes full price!
2. I like to experiment in the kitchen.  
(1/2 the stuff I make is not from a recipe..) 
((1/2 of that stuff actually tastes good...))
3. My favorite color is light blue. 
4. I love fashion. 
5. I ride my bike to work a.lot.
6. I have crazy-wild-lion-mane-quality hair that I tame every day.
7. I am married to my best friend. (he is the only person that knows everything about me and doesn't run the other way).

Promise to be a better blogger.

Also: a HUGE welcome a few new followers!
