Seven random facts about me:

1. I love hot tea! In the fall and winter I almost always have a cup of herbal tea next to me. My favorites are fruit flavors (peach, blueberry, cranberry apple), I'm not as fond of green tea or black tea. When I'm sick Echinacea tea is my best friend.

2. I'm always multitasking. When I'm blogging I enjoy having music, an audio book, a TV show or period drama playing.   

3. I love cats. My two gray and white kitties are great fun to snuggle with, talk to and tease. My older cat has been sick the last few weeks, she's quite an old lady but I'm going to miss her terrible when she goes.

4. My uncle in the Air Force just recently went to Scotland. I'm so jealous but he took some marvelous photos which I've been enjoying. It's refreshed my desire to visit Scotland some day!

5. Candy corn is one of my favorite fall treats.

6. My favorite items to browse through at a store are the scarves and bags/purses. When I first starting working for my current boss she must have thought I was crazy because almost every day I'd show up carrying an entirely new bag! I had so much fun with that! :)

7. My sister and I have been in a Christmas music mood recently, I know it's not even November yet but we've been listening to all of our favorite Christmas albums. 

My favorite hobby:

Probably blogging! I do it because I love it! Blogging combines all of my favorite things: writing, reading, researching, history, book, music and beautiful paintings and photos. And of course Jane Austen and period dramas!

My favorite color:

I usually say red, a deep rich red color. But I also love lavender/lilac and light green when paired together. 

I personally wear a lot of blues, browns and pinks.

Similar to my mine, I always cut my onions smaller

My favorite food:

Tricky one. Maybe pizza because I don't usually get tired of it and you can put anything on it. I love making pizza for my family, my pizza crust is a wonderful recipe that turns out so delicious! My family's favorite is when I make BBQ chicken pizza  (and for the guys Buffalo chicken pizza). Yum! :)
