7 things about myself:

I’ve been with my husband for almost 14 years (this December). We got married on our 11th year anniversary.
When I eat a banana, I can never eat the end pieces —even if they’re flawless and unbruised. I don’t know why.
I am a proud owner of a MINI Cooper S. Her name is Minnie.
I got to see Hugh Jackman up close and personal (4th row from the stage) in San Francisco when he did his one man show
tour. *SWOON*
The cleanest part of my house is my kitchen. You can literally eat off the floor. I have this OCD thing where I have to make sure the kitchen is clean and there are no dirty dishes in the sink before I go to bed. I can’t sleep knowing the kitchen is a mess.
I am obsessed with baking liners. I have a whole collection
of them.
When I was about 6 or 7 years old, I used to eat chicken brains —cooked of course and I enjoyed it.

Oh, Anne, thank you so much! You are just wonderful and I so appreciate it!

Okay, what do I need to do — same instructions as above? Also, how does this nominating thing work? And the lovely blog award image — where can one find that to use?

And, chicken brains, huh? LOL Who knew? I must say, quite the adventurous palate for a little one! =)

Oh Christina –you so deserve it! You have such a lovely blog! 🙂

So same instructions –you thank the person who nominated you and link back to their site. You nominate 15 bloggers that you think fit under the category. Then you write 7 things about yourself. As for the image, you can include it in your post or I have seen other bloggers that post the image on the side by using a widget or you can post the image on a page. You can obtain the image by right clicking on the image with your mouse (I hope you have a PC. I have no idea how to save an image using a Mac) > “Save Picture As” (in IE) or “Save Image As” (in Firefox) > Save it to your desktop is the quickest. Then you upload it to WordPress > Media > Add New and take the necessary steps to get it on your post or page.

Yeah, I really liked it too. I know –weird! 😀
