Kindred Connection Party!

It's Wednesday (Happy Cinco de Mayo!) which means it's a Kindred Connection party at Windy Poplars. Hop on over there to join the fun!

Here are this week's questions:
1. If you had a day from this past week that you could "live over" (either to enjoy the good all over again or to change something for the better) , which one would it be and why?

I'd want to re-live this past Saturday. I went to my boyfriend's cousin's wedding and had a wonderful time. His family is so sweet and so welcoming to me and everytime I see them I feel more and more at home with them. His dad even asked me to dance which I thought was so sweet! I spent the afternoon stressing about what to wear and being nervous though so I would like to go back and be waaaaay more relaxed.

2. Do you work outside the home? Are you a SAHM? Are you self employed?
I work outside the home (although luckily my job is flexible and I can "work-from-home" a couple of times a week if I want to).

3. What are two blogs that you really love, and why?
There are so many different blogs I love, but here are two that I recently discovered:

According to Nina - Nina's posts are insightful and fun! I love her style!

Summer is a Verb - Alice's posts are funny and delightful. I love hearing about all her great shopping finds and attempts to hide them from her hubby! Plus, she is definitely an authority on all things preppy!

Kindred Spirits

Did anyone ever read L.M. Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables series? I loved those books and movies when I was younger. Did anyone else love them too?? A few years ago, a friend of mine visited Green Gables on Prince Edward Island and I was soo jealous. A visit there is definitely on my to-do list. I came across the Windy Poplars blog (btw, Anne of Windy Poplars was my very favorite book in the series... check it out if you've never read it!) and her Kindred Connection party. I liked the questions a lot, so here I go!

1. If you could describe your desired lifestyle in one word, what would it be?

Light-hearted. As they said in Garden State, if you can't laugh at yourself, life is going to seem a whole lot longer than you'd like. I tend to be a huge worrier, so I need to remind myself to take things a lot more lightly.

2. What style of home is your "House of Dreams"?

An elegant and stately brick Colonial... like this one for sale in my parent's neighborhood. It's probably a little too big to realistically live in!

3. If you could live in a fictional story/movie, which would it be and why?

Maybe Harry Potter or Narnia? That would be fun. Or Great Gatsby's East Egg. Or Gossip Girl!

4. Do you prefer coffee or tea? Favorite kind?

I like both, but I prefer tea. I love iced tea with lots of lemon in the summer. I also love Earl Grey tea and Red Rose tea. This Early Grey with lavender is wonderful.

5. Share the last sweet/romantic thing your hubby did for you.

Well, I don't have a hubby... but I mentioned to my bf the other night that I was really in the mood for a McFlurry and he surprised me with one!

What would your answers be? Or better yet, visit Windy Poplars and join the party!
