Yup, it’s that simple. I have been finding it hard to come up with topics to write about since I’ve taken a break from racing (although that break may end soon…more to follow) other than posting a recipe here and there. So I am borrowing an idea from my friend Christa at A Voluptuous Mind and make a 2 part post. One, things I like…Two, you guessed it…things I don’t like! Just a few random things you may or may not know about me…:-)
Here’s part one of Things you may not know about me!
Things I like!
- Romance in all forms
- Surprises
- the smell of the air on a fall day
- key lime pie
- crème brulee’
- the beach
- writing
- lavender
- the smell of sweat after the 2nd or 3rd mile of my run (don’t judge-I know I’m weird)
- belly laughs
- Photography…capturing moments with photography makes me smile
- dancing
- hardwood floors and exposed brick
- honesty
- fancy restaurants
- bon-fires
- music. all forms. But especially Frank Sinatra. I LOVE Frank.
- wine with friends
- cooking gadgets-ALL the cooking gadgets!!!
- massages
- seeing people enjoy the food I prepare for them
- that feeling you get when you are no longer runner, but flying…
- hugs where you don’t feel like you have to let go
- lunch time walks
- cold pillows and warm blankets
- challenging myself to chase my dreams 🙂
These are just a few of my favorite things (now you’ve got the song in your head, don’t you?!)!!!!
What are you favorite things?! I’d love for you to share a few of them! ❤
Stay tuned for part 2 of Things you may not know about me…coming soon!

I love key lime pie too. Although I do not creme brulee. I think it’s bc of the consistency.

Love this list ❤ I've got some similar tastes too but off the top of my head some of my favorite things are: wine, bunny kisses, cute animal pictures, family dinners, coffee, the crisp smell of fall (pumpkins and apples and spices galore!), and curling up with a good book and hot cocoa in front of a fire in winter!

Yes, I do have that song stuck in my head! I like posts like this because you always learn things you wouldn’t ordinarily know. A few things on my list are: warm doggies, coffee, sunrise, and any body of water.

I really wish I hadn’t read this post before my 37k run. I’m pretty sure I’m going to be singing that song for three and a half hours now.

Great list – thanks for sharing!
It is funny as we get older how joyous these simple things can be – this morning it was the fog-filtered light of my headlamp and 55F temp on my run … last night it was the smells of fall as my wife and I walked our dogs …
Honesty is so huge, and was one of our key lessons with our kids. Start with the truth and it won’t get worse … of course they had to learn the hard way a few times, but it has worked out well in the end!
Now on to the next one 🙂

I agree. Sometimes so many can’t face the truth, and get so mad when it’s brought up to them.
