Hello everyone! Today’s Tag Me Tuesday is featuring the Liebster Award! I had previously been nominated 5 times and then I was nominated 5 more so this is numbers 6-10. The following bloggers are the amazing people who nominated me:

• Ella May – Check out Ella’s blog when you have the chance, she’s an English student who spreads positivity and blogs about pretty much everything. Oh and she just reached 1,500 followers on her blog!
• Gluecksgeist – Do you like beauty, fashion, youtube, and overall beautifully written posts? If so, Gluecksgeist is for you! Her photos are amazing so check out the travel posts too!
• Chloe – Chloe’s blog is fully of posts on beauty, fashion, and lifestyle so I’m sure you’ll find something you love here too! She recently hit 100 followers! Maybe we can help get her to 200 now?
• Cassi – If you love seeing perfect makeup looks, head on over to Cassi’s blog. She’s amazing at makeup! She recently dyed her hair purple and it looks awesome. One of my favorite series on her blog is “Surrogacy Saturday” where every Saturday she posts about her experience as a surrogate, and it is truly beautiful to read.
• Jamie – Jamie is a lovely lifestyle blogger who is obsessed with Shark Week. She can also talk to you all about sports (particularly Boston sports) which is something I’m not able to do (all I can do is yell “SPORTS!” in the conversation).

Each one of these ladies are amazing, please go visit their blogs when you have a moment as I know you’ll love them as much as I do (if you don’t already!).

And onto the award!

   Peony.

   I haven’t but I’d love to try it.

   Homemade tortillas being made.
9. Do you use a planner of any type? If not, how do you organize?
   Yes, right now I use two little planners, a monthly and a weekly. They’re tiny, like “pocket sized”. I mostly only use the monthly because going between the two was not working for me. I am going to switch to a larger notebook sized weekly planner that has a monthly calendar before the month starts so I’m excited. That’s mostly because I know I’ll need that for school.
10. What’s your favorite tv show?
    My favorite show ever is Parks and Recreation for sure!
11. What animal are you on the Chinese Zodiac?
    Goat. I always forget what that means though. I’ll look it up.
    Update: turns out the goat is interchangeable with sheep and ram as well so I’m not sure what that says about stability and decision-making. It says I’m gentle and kind-hearted and I don’t think I would say those are the first things that come to mind.

   “The Room Where It Happens” from the musical Hamilton
5. What are your thoughts on fidget spinners?
   I know I’m getting old because I don’t get their appeal. I was in line behind a child who spent a good 20mins trying to convey why it was so cool to her mom but never spoke a full sentence. Ugh, so aggravating.
6. What’s your favorite pizza topping?
   Pepperoni!
7. What side of the bed do you sleep on?
   The middle, where it’s safe.
