take 4 tag

Jenny from Australia tagged me. Wow Jenny! That's some reach you got there! I personally love to read through posts like this--I'm always interested in knowing what makes people tick....but if you'd rather not hear I yadda yadda, me yadda yadda, once when I was 12 yadda, yadda---------then move onto the next post where I shall share a heavenly recipe with you. For those of you stickin' with me: *thanks!*



4 jobs I've had:

1. working at the sand and gravel pit my mother use to own. I was about 12. I'm sure I was more trouble than help, but it was always a great time hanging out with my mom, playing on the typewriter (yes--I'm old!), and making copies of my smooshed up face on the copy machine.

2. At Millhollow Frozen Yogurt during college. That was mainly just to support my nasty sweet frozen dairy product habit though. Hi. I'm Jennifer. And I wish Ben or Jerry were my husband.

3. The Emporium. It was a clothing store geared mostly toward old people. It was during this time that I realized how much I loved putting displays together. I may have been creating scenes with mannequins wearing polyester elastic-waist pants and kitty-cat sweatshirts---but they were rockin' I tell you---ROCKIN'!

4. I dropped out of the German/ Secondary Education program, got my interior design degree instead and started my own business--The October Co. Interiors. That's where I've been ever since. Worked first for builders choosing finishes (carpet, tile, paint, lights, etc.) in spec homes, then moved to residential work. I love it!



4 Movies I could watch over and over again:

1. Galaxy Quest (I LOVE Alan Rickman in that one!)

2. Pirates of the Caribbean (only the first one though. The last two have gotten a little weird for me).

3. Anne of Green Gables. (It's like Lord of the Rings for girls!)

4. A four hour documentary on the DNA study of the Hopewell Indians. I don't know if that counts as a "movie"--but seriously, I could watch that thing over and over and over.



4 people I email daily:

*uh--no one really. Except lately I've been bugging my blog designer an awful lot via email. I am so anxious to have my page done--and I guess I just have no patience at all. She probably wishes I'd lose her address already!



4 favorite things to eat:

1. Pasta. Any kind. My last meal would be gnocci in a sun-dried tomato and Gorgonzola sauce, and some butternut squash ravioli with browned sage butter. I loves me some carbs.

2.Salads. I even prefer to eat them dry (no dressing) as though I were a rabbit. It kind of balances out all the calories from the pasta!

3. Raspberries.

4. Ice Cream. Only on Saturday nights now. What willpower.



4 places I'd rather be:

*I wouldn't RATHER be anywhere--I love it here. But I would like to be...

1. shopping a great furniture store with a pocket full of free money.

2. In a quaint old cottage in the English countryside somewhere.

3. In my bed--asleep.

4. At one of those fantasy dinners where you invite any 10 people you want living or dead--I have my list of guests ready!



4 things I look forward to this year:

1. Zane

2.Ethan

3. Liam

4. James

my kids are the source of a new adventure every day!



Now I think I'm suppose to tag 4 people...... but I'm really awful at that. So if anyone from my Daily Rounds list would like to take this challenge and hasn't yet--feel free :)! I will come read all about you!
