The Blonde Diaries

Hey Yall!

I figured I’d go ahead and do an about me post before I started blogging away.

So Who Am I?

I’m a 26 year old Texan transplant. I came from Louisiana 2.5 years ago to persue a job as an Auditor and to live closer to a brick and mortar Sephora store. I think there are somewhere between 5-10 Sephora stores here in Houston so I’m a happy camper and I don’t go into bank account shock as much any more since I can spread out my purchases over an entire year instead of my old one time shopping trips.

I love to cook - slow cook, cook from scratch, 30 minute meals, weight watcher friendly recipes, cocktails. The list can go on forever and you will soon be reading all about it. I think my next quest will be recreating my restaurant favorites at home so I don’t go out and gorge myself when I eat out.

Other Factoids:

• I am a Disney Addict. I am currently planning my September 2008 Trip
• Favorite TV shows include: How I Met Your Mother, Friends Reruns, Dancing with the Stars, Scrubs reruns (I don’t get NBC so I can’t watch new episodes). I’m pretty much limited to CBS, ABC, FOX, and the CW. If I knew Spanish my choices would double.
• I’m on a pseudo-weight watchers plan that I have made up in my mind. Unfortunately it isn’t working out too well so I’m going back to the actual plan this week.
• I am a beer girl and prefer champagne over wine.
• Sauerkraut does not scare me. Curry does though.
• I am pro-gecko in the gecko vs. caveman debate with Geico
• I have a zoo membership and go once per month. I do not have kids. I just love the zoo.
• My first degree/career was in IT, my second degree/career is in accounting, and if all else fails my 3rd career will be working at a makeup counter at Nordstrom or Sephora. I am so done with school.
• I hated the color pink growing up and now I can’t do without it. Bright pinks though not baby pinks.
