If the man in my life could tolerate bold patterns, these chairs would be in our home. { image: urbanoutfitters.com }

what font are you?

I took an online quiz the other day that told me which FONT best matches my personality. The result was Helvetica. I can't say that this surprised me at all. I'm sure that upon first impression, I come across as very straight-laced and average, practical and without frills. But I must say that I can't always be described as plain old Helvetica.

When I'm at my best, when I'm clear-headed, motivated and in tune with my creativity, I am Dalliance Font. When I'm in a deep fog, lost in being lazy and reclusive, I am News Gothic. When I'm getting my work done, following through on other's expectations of me, I am Georgia. When I'm safe at home with J and our dogs, I am Fleurie.

So, what font are you?

thanks for the cookies!

Sometimes the best gifts are the kind that are destined to end up in my stomach. J's mom has a true talent for baking and we're always so happy when she sends us cookies for Christmas.

big nerd

It's possible that I might be THE BIGGEST nerd on the planet. My significant other gave me a bunch of binder clips the other day, in all my favorite colors, and I was positively giddy about them. It's safe to say that I was more excited about these binder clips than I would have been had he presented a bouquet of flowers – although flowers would have been nice, too. *wink wink*

I love office supplies! Especially supplies that just sit around and look pretty (and supplies that don't remind me of the actual work that I should be doing). Hey, so did you know that binder clips were invented in 1911? I had to look that up.
