I hope y’all enjoy these random facts about me and my sponsors as much as I do!
What You Don’t Know About Me
1. The main reason I don’t wear makeup very often is because I’m too lazy at the end of the night to remove it. I take good care of my skin. I understand the importance of properly removing makeup at night. I usually don’t want to do that, so I avoid my dilemma by not wearing makeup in the first place.
2. To work as an au pair in France, I had to learn how to drive a manual transmission. My skills lapsed after that year, but Dan refreshed my memory this year. Since we sold my beat-up car with its automatic transmission, I needed to master driving a stick shift. I still get nervous driving the Miata, but I do really well in the Ford Focus ST.
3. Have you noticed that I use pink, gold, navy blue, mint, and white in my blog design and graphics? I love this color combination, and it’s spilled over into my real life. Dan and I have decorated both the living room and my home office in this general color scheme.

What do I not know about YOU?
I’m terrible at driving manual so I really admire your skills! x
You just need a really great teacher… like Dan! Or a really strong reason, like having to pick up three kids from school and take them to their swim lessons, all by yourself.
I first learned on a manual transmission too! Like the color scheme you’ve chosen. It’s really cute and fun!
I initially learned on automatic, but I’m so glad I eventually learned to drive a manual transmission! I like it so much better.
Thanks for the color compliments. 🙂 They all sorta just came together several months ago!
