5 Things You Didn't Know About . . . .


It's Wednesday and that means it's time to find out 5 Things You Didn't Know About . . .


Yes, Christine at Design Esquire!


Favorite music at the moment: Please don't judge me too harshly, but I still love cheesy 80's music (The Go-Gos, The Cars, The Bangles, A-Ha, Bon Jovi, Chicago, etc.). I also like other upbeat songs from today - like the new one from Black Eyed Peas, I Gotta Feeling. This is out of left field, but I also always have Louis Prima's greatest hits in my car CD player (it's taped live and incredible).


If you didn't live where you do, where would you live: This is a tough one. I went to law school in Philadelphia and loved the town, but I may want to head a little further South (like North Carolina). If I hit the lottery, my answer would be Sonoma, California.
Favorite cocktail: Red wine. Perfect for the upcoming cold weather!

Best advice you ever received: I think I learned this when I was a Daisy in Girl Scouts - "Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver and the other's gold." That is a good life lesson.

Person you most admire: My mother. She hasn't had an easy life, but she is continually moving forward and stays positive, and she is always so giving towards others. Through it all, she has maintained a good sense of humor too.


Thank you, Christine! It was great getting to know more about you {I love the 80's music, too}!

Be sure to join us next week to learn 5 Things You Didn't Know About . . . someone else!

You may have noticed that I didn't have a Blog Of The Week feature this week; I ran out of bloggers that offered themselves up for this. If you are up for being featured here on my blog {it is normally a Monday feature} please let me know; you can email me or leave me a comment and I'll get in touch. The only thing I ask is that your blog have something to do with home decor in one way or another and that you include pictures in your blog posts.
