Now, I am supposed to share 7 Things about myself!  ;-)

1. I am a newlywed -- my husband and I just got married this past November.

2. My favorite food is macaroni and cheese -- I could eat it every day for the rest of my life!  But that's not healthy, so...

3. I love, love, love chick lit.  It's probably my favorite genre to read!

4. Girly movies are also a favorite of mine.  I am obsessed with the movie  Father of the Bride and watch it on a weekly (sometimes bi-weekly, I won't lie) basis.  I'm weird like that and just keep pushing "Play" on the DVD remote.

5. I love to cook and try out new recipes -- sometimes I even get really awesome and cook without following recipes.  And that rarely goes well!

6. My husband and I had secret crushes on each other in high school, but we never told each other and didn't get together until well after we had graduated.

7. I am deathly afraid of birds.  They are so scary!

Okie dokie, so, here are the rules for my bloggy friends who were nominated in this post!
