Whats your pleasure!

I am really, really bad about responding to tags and posting awards so if you tagged me or gave me a fabulous award I am truly sorry if I didn't play along like a good friend. Since I am trying to do better in many aspects of my life I will try to do better at this as well. I will begin today! My "in-real-life" friend LyndsAU tagged me to play a Favorite Things game. Here we go ... some people used only words and some used only pictures - I think I will use both.

Clothes



If I could only choose one place to shop it would be BR. Banana never lets me down! Their clothes are classic yet stylish and hold up so well. I can shop for clothes and shoes, for day or night.

Furniture

Restoration Hardware ... no explanation necessary. Everything about it is drool-worthy!

City

I know, I know, I broke the rules and chose 3. I am sorry but there was no way for me to choose. From top to bottom is New York City, Lake Lucerne (Switzerland), and Dubai - in no particular order.

There is absolutely nothing like New York at Christmas. There is no way to describe it other than magical.

I was only in Switzerland for a few days but it stole my heart. Lake Lucerne is the prettiest place on earth. No questions asked. I can't wait until the day that I can take the Beau! Please (pretty please) put this on your list of places to go before you die.

Oh Dubai! Dubai is in the United Arab Emirates and is known as the "playground" for the Europeans. I was in Dubai for almost 3 full weeks with my last job in February of 2007. There is nowhere in the world like it. Everywhere we went all I could say was "this is insane" or "are you kidding me right now." The city is unbelievable ... that is all I can say :)

Sweets

Cupcakes are my all-time favorite treat but my flavor-of-the-week is this :)


Sounds sorta gross but girls, you will think you died and went to heaven!

Drink


Coke. Fully-leaded. It is my first true love and my worst addiction!

Music

I am a country music girl through and through! And I LOVE these two!

TV Series

Friends is my fave of all-time.

Desperate Housewives is my favorite new show. I am not saying it is the best show on tv but it is my guilty pleasure :)

Film

Serendipity! I know what you are thinking ... Whose favorite movie is Serendipity? Extremely random. I don't know why it is my favorite ... I just love it. Maybe it has something to do with my love for New York at Christmas. Who knows!

Workout

Sorry, I got nothin. Pathetic with a capital P ... but I am trying to be honest here!

Pastries


You can't beat a blueberry muffin!

Coffee

I am sooo ready for Christmas!

Anybody, and everybody, can play along!

xoxo~

I think you just totally described my life. Well, except the Switzerland and Dubai thing. (My hubby was just on deployment in Dubai and he LOVED it. He keeps saying we WILL visit there!) And Faith Hill is totally my idol.

What a fun post!

LyndsAU said...

yay for playing along :) fun times! it's hard to choose faves isn't it :) your "real life" friend is glad you did :)

I saw NY in March. It was freezing and gray and rainy. But still spectacular. I cant imagine it at Christmas. I might not leave. :)

Sassy Engineer said...

I love Serendipity too! Also, that blueberry muffin looked tasty :)

I LOVE Tim and Faith - used to be mildly obsessed with them, but I am better now. I have been to see their Soul 2 Soul tour twice. My favorite part was when they performed the Snow Patrol song, "Chasing Cars', which ended up being the song on our wedding video. Love them! I want to apply to be their nanny!

Me in Memphis said...

I totally agree with Banana Republic, although I put on a few lbs and now I'm in between sizes. It used to be I could order anything in my size and know it would fit...I loved it. Their clothes are so, so timeless though. Love it.

Monogramchick said...

Great tag!
I want to go to Dubai, I am so jealous :)
We have so much in common, I love Tim & Faith {and country music in general}, and I could watch Serendipity 10,000 times and not get tired of it. It was great to learn more about you.

Petunia said...

I love your choices! Dubai looks like Disneyworld!!

JN said...

Your post just made me really hungry :)

because I said so said...

I'm a cupcake-a-holic....it's a weakness

Just Me said...

Everyone around here is saying Restoration Hardware is their favorite furniture store. Silly me, I dont remember furniture there! It has been entirely too long, I might have to pop over to one this weekend to check it out again.

Nelly said...

hi!! love your blog! I noticed you had Dubai in your favorite cities. I was thinking about trying to get an internship or job there this summer. Do you have any suggestions or know of anything/ Where exactly in Dubai where you? I dont know anyone who has really spent time there so I just wanted to see if you could help me out!
