I first saw this type of post on Erin's blog {Living in Yellow} and decided I wanted to "borrow" her idea. {Hopefully she believes "imitation is the best form of flattery!"} I didn't realize it would take me weeks {literally} to come up with self-descriptors for each letter of the alphabet.
A: Austin, Texas - my home from 2005 -2008 {grad school}.
B: Bond Girl - specifically credit analysis of municipal bonds. It's what I do for a living.
C: Cake - quite possibly my favorite food on the planet...or chips & salsa, which also begins with C, so I'll go with both! Oh...and I also love champagne!
D: Dorothy - what people in Texas think my name is..."You're not in Kansas anymore, Dorothy!"
 |
| Halloween a few years back... Lily was the perfect Toto! |
E: Economics - one of my undergraduate degrees.
F: Farming - the source of my supplemental income.

| Riding the combine with my brother during wheat harvest |
G: George Strait - my all-time favorite entertainer. Since I was born...till the day I die!
H: Hot Tamales {the candy} - my longest-lasting addiction...CAN'T.GET.OVER.IT! We're talking 20 years. I've even been known to refer to these lil cinnamon treats as "medicine."
I: Ink {as in tattoos} - I have two!
J: Jo - my middle name.
K: Kansas - home sweet home.
L: Lily - the 5-pound diva that rules our house. {see more about her here}
M: Macaroni & Cheese - one thing I'm actually good at making...not the box kind. I'm legit when it comes to mac & cheese.
N: Nashville - my favorite TV show.
O: Overload - what I tend to do to my schedule/calendar.
P: Pizza - my preferred meal on Sunday nights {or any morning following a night that involves cocktails!}
Q: Quantify - what I try to do to anything and everything. I'm just a numbers girl!
R: Ryan - my husband, the love of my life, my best friend.
S: Sorority - I was an Alpha Chi Omega back in the day. {It hurts to calculate how many years I've been out of college!}
T: Traffic - my worst enemy. It makes me wish I could be in a demolition derby...except my car is the only one that moves in my vision of a demolition derby.
U: Unmade - how I leave our bed most mornings. {Shhh! Don't tell my mom...she'd be so disappointed!}
V: Vision - 20/20...thanks to LASIK, the Best.Investment.Ever!
W: Watermelon - my favorite fruit...and one of my favorite lines from Baby in Dirty Dancing.
