Welcome to this post: One Lovely Blog Award.
All of this is new to me, but I’m doing my best to keep up!
I was graciously nominated by Melanie from slowdownslowly.wordpress.com for the Lovely Blog Award! Thank you!!
Rules of acceptance:
- Thank the person/people who nominated you and link back to them in your post.
- Share seven possibly unknown things about yourself. -Nominate fifteen or so bloggers you admire.
- Contact the chosen bloggers to let them know and link back to them.
Here are seven things you may not know about me:
1. Although I played collegiate volleyball, soccer was my first sport since my days as a toddler.
2. I have monkey toes, they are nearly a second set of hands.
3. I have lived several states apart from my parents and brother while I’ve been away at college–and the homesickness is palpable.
4. Favorite Artist: Billy Joel.
5. I have a weakness for wasabi, I put it on nearly every plate of eggs I eat.
6. I didn’t get my driver’s license until the beginning of this year at age 24. I have used either my bicycle or my legs to commute while in college.
7. I started this blog on a whim, but am increasingly excited to share the knowledge I have accrued through years as an athlete and nutrition-conscious individual.
These are some EXCELLENT blogs that I follow (and you should, too!). I’ve already learned alot from these individuals!

We have two awesome things in common:
3. I have lived several states apart from my parents and brother while I’ve been away at college–and the homesickness is palpable. Me too! I have lived in NJ, California, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Maryland, Virginia & South Carolina
That’s SO cool!! I bet living in several places has made you good at adapting to new surroundings. I’ve lived in Florida, Texas, Indiana, and New Jersey– I feel like I’ve grown so much from living in each place! So, in a way, it’s quite a blessing.
It’s a dream of mine to see Billy Joel live! LUCKY!! I bet that was unforgettable–like you said.
Thanks for sharing…..so neat to meet wonderful bloggers like you via the internet! 🙂
thank you for nominating me! i love this…..and feel so honored 🙂 and my toes look like fingers too
You’re so welcome! Happy to do so. Funny we have the toes in common!! hehe 🙂
oh the toes. I’ll join the chorus, my toes are prehensile and dad reckons I could climb a pole with no hands…deadpan expression. My partner hates me moving them because he reckons my finger toes scare him. I bet he just wishes he could pick the bath mat up without bending like me!
And you so deserve this award, you and your pink-hot blog. I love Billy Joel as well, I have a best of album of his that a LOT of play here whilst I’m blogging or having a few sparkling wines!
Keep up your blogging, I’m glad you’ve found a passion for it even though it started on a whim.
I will have to go through your list of nominees! I will never get off the computer, I think I have to quit my job 🙂
Hahahahaa! You might have me beat then with the toes–mine are mainly long and skinny–they just look funny on me. Glad to hear Billy is getting some air time! I feel like if I get too wrapped up I won’t leave the computer either! Thank you so much for the encouragement an here’s to finding balance!! 🙂
Monkey toes – that’s awesome!! I think it’s great that you played soccer your whole life, I’ll admit I don’t even know how to play. 🙂 I’m no good at team sports like that. 🙂 Thanks for the nomination!!
yep, monkey toes—haha 🙂 Well thank you so much! and you are so welcome! You may not have played team sports but you sure do offer a whole lot of great knowledge and I enjoy everything you share both on your blog and on instagram!! 🙂
