I've Been Tagged! 20 Things About Me
I was tagged by Holly in Ontario. Now to finish my list of 20 things about me:
1. I lived in Ontario, Canada for about 20 years. I love hockey. Favorite Hockey Team? My kid's team of course! Then the Detroit Red Wings against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
2. While in Canada, I only drink Tim Horton's coffee. While in the U.S. I only drink Starbuck's coffee. I have my favorites, what can I say?
3. I look forward to winter because I like to ski, snowmobile, ice skate, play hockey, sled and build snowmen.
4. Fall is one of my favorite times of year. The air is crisp and clean. You can open all your windows and let the freshness come in. The colors energize me, especially red.
5. I too collect beach glass, on the shores of the Great Lakes and the St. Clair river. I recently found an antique electrical plug made of porcelain washed up on shore.
6. I love antiques and old victorian homes. I can envision what the victorian home would look like restored. I also love chalet type mountain homes and hope to build one.
7. When I go into homes or public places, I have to straighten the pictures on the wall. I try to do this without anyone knowing, however I have been caught on occassion. I don't like anything that hangs crooked. I have been affectionately named "Dead-Eye Dick" because I can level a picture without the level! On a recent stay at a Hyatt Regency Hotel, I noticed the paintings in the foyer were crooked. I had to fight my urge to straighten them as the hotel was crowded with employees and guests.
8. My favorite foods as a child were: tacos, clam chowder, shrimp and frog's legs.
9. The only time I ever skipped school, my Mom happened to be driving by and caught me.
10. I have never bleached my hair. Being a brunette has always been my trademark.
11. God and Family are first in my life-oh and right after that is illustration and design!
12. I want to learn to speak Portuguese fluently.
13. My favorite movie to watch with my husband and children every Christmas is Home Alone and Home Alone 2, it's just hilarious and gets me in the holiday mood.
14. My favorite salad is the Fuji Apple Salad at Panera Bread. Try it! (Only offered in the summer).
15. I am already stressing about Christmas and what to give as gifts.
16. I love to go to the apple orchard in the fall and have homemade apple pie and ice cream. It's time!
17. Being a Mom has been the most fullfilling experience of my life.
18. I was once a bumble bee at Halloween.
19. I broke my jaw in 3 place in 5th grade. Nasty business.
20. I am not quick to judge and dislike people who are.

OMG!! I was still laughing about your Mum catching you when I saw this!
They are so interesting - nice to get to know you a bit more Maggie!
I still cannot believe my Mom caught me, it was the hand of fate. I was walking with my friend on the only route to the closest burger joint!
I am glad you liked them, now I can't wait to see yours!
