My First Video and Blog Awards!

by | Oct 11, 2014 | Uncategorized | 33 comments

Happy Saturday, friends! Recently I was tagged/nominated by some wonderful blogger friends to share a few facts about myself. Rather than doing 4 separate posts, I’m answering only 1 set of questions in my VERY FIRST VIDEO! This is a bit nerve wracking, but I love watching other bloggers’ videos– so I thought I’d give it a shot!

You may have noticed that I am not nominating or tagging anyone. Instead, I’d like to hear from YOU! After watching my video, please answer one (or more) of the questions in the comments! It would make my day. Then go check out their blogs, linked below!

The 11 Questions:

  1. Favorite TV show
  2. Why did you start blogging?
  3. Who/what has made the biggest impact on your life?
  4. Favorite food
  5. What pets do you have or would like to have?
  6. If money weren’t an issue, where would I travel?
  7. Favorite time of year
  8. Mountains or ocean?
  9. Favorite book genre
  10. Who’s your celebrity crush?
  11. Most prized possession

Check out these lovely ladies who tagged me!

One last thing. Have you followed Simplicity Relished yet? Here’s where to find me:

    Aww thank you so much !! And I agree– I like watching the ocean but not so much swimming in it… and since I’m originally from northern CA I always expect the ocean to be super cold. And yes, love Europe 🙂

    It’s always so cool to see bloggers “in person”! Loved your video. I totally love the ocean too…even if I’m too much of a germaphobe to really swim in it for long! If money weren’t an issue, I’d be traveling all around Europe…ah, if only 🙂

    Loved getting to know more about you and see your video! I love it when bloggers make videos 🙂 I think it’s so cool that you save all your birthday and Christmas cards. I love saving cards! I think it’s so fun to look back on them all 🙂

    Thank you so much, Sarah!! And hooray we can be croissant lovin’ buddies in France 😉 And yes I totally get why the mountains are amazing; the crisp air is definitely a plus (not salty like the ocean). Hope you’re having a lovely weekend, friend!

    I always love learning a little bit about bloggers I follow, so thanks for sharing with us! I guess I’ll answer who my celebrity crush is (so back off ladies! jk!) Ryan Gosling! Last year I annoyed the heck out of my boyfriend by making my entire facebook Ryan Gosling (Cover photos were Ryan Gosling riding the teacup ride at Disney with a bunch of kitties, another was Ryan Gosling with the Backstreet Boys, and totally sacrilegious, but Ryan Goslings face photoshopped on Jesus). He was about ready to lose it after about a month of this going on, so sadly, I took it all down!

    Again, thanks for sharing! Great job for your first video too!

    Thanks so much Emily!! Ooh I’ve only flown through Salt Lake but the mountains truly are gorgeous there. Thanks for watching, friend! <3

    Thank you!! Last answer– very honest!! And I am sure Patagonia is in your future 🙂

    Thanks, friend!! I adore bread as well– and something about French flour and butter is just magical.

    So fun learning more about you! I would say I am more of a mountains girl. Since I am originally from Salt Lake City, UT I grew up around mountains & I love them. They are my comfort & always make me feel at home. But I do LOVE the ocean too!

    1. Toss up between Modern Family/Downtown Abbey/Hitchcock. Like all for different reasons!
    2. Started blogging to explore the medium and chronicle (somewhat) my life journey.
    3. Jesus, agreed. Although my husband and kids are right up there!
    4. Cheesecake, plain. No question about that.
    5. Our second Portuguese Water Dog, Dezi. Not a well-behaved dog, loves Rico more than me, but part of our family.
    6. Paris. Patagonia.
    7. Spring and summer, when the days are long and the weather warm.
    8. Ocean.
    9. Also love Audrey Hepburn, but Cary Grant is probably my favorite.
    10. Sorry to admit it, but probably my iPhone — connects me with the world, fits in my hand.

    Love the video blog!
