My Personal Crayon Box


Colors depict a person's life. In my opinion, a person's favorite colors say a lot about that person. So, if my life were a bunch of crayons, these are the colors I would choose... 


Roll Tide Red

Original name, I know. Well this shows my allegiance to The University of Alabama. Roll Tide Roll. Everyone needs some red in his or her life, or wardrobe. It looks great on everyone, guaranteed.


Icy sky  

I love to ski and I love the beach. You can have a warm sky at the beach, or an icy sky when you are skiing in Colorado. If I had to choose a trip to the beach or to the ski slopes, skiing always win. I guess that’s what I get growing up in an anti-beach family.


Fields of Green

I love the country. I love farms, I love the animals, I love the open air. Growing up in Tennessee, it was amazing to drive down the road past farm after farm and not have a care in the world.


Happy Stick

This color has 2 meanings. 
Number 1: Butter. Paula Dean is amazing and I LOVE to bake. LOVE. However, I don’t love butter on bread or by itself, weird I know. However, butter in any recipe makes it that much better.
Number 2: Happiness. Yellow is a happy color and I love happy people.


Making Me Blush

If you know me at all, you know that one little semi-embarrassing comment about me or, actually, me being singled out in any circumstance, makes my face blush. Bad.


Volunteers Orange

I tried to delete this one about four times then decided to hell with it. University of Tennessee orange. There, I said it. Go Vols. Now, I am only saying this because I grew up in Tennessee and I almost went to the University of Tennessee. But, thank the good Lord above that I didn’t. And that’s all I have to say about that one.


Fresh Iris

Iris is the state flower of Tennessee. My mom loves to garden and we always have these in our garden and fresh ones in our house. An Iris reminds me of my family and my home.


Chocolate Cake

Once again, I LOVE to bake! Give me any recipe, or ask me to make you any dessert or dinner, and there is a good chance I will do it. I really would love to have a food blog and get paid to bake 24/7, but there’s a slim chance of that happening. Now, since it is the day after Valentine's Day, I must go to Target and raid all the discount chocolate and bakery items.

Love of my life

"You’re in a bar one evening. You’re alone. You’re not involved romantically with anyone. Suddenly, someone walks in and the two of you lock eyes. You know instinctively, with every fiber of your being, that this is the person you must spend the rest of your life with. This is your chance. You begin to think about how you’ll figure out a way to introduce yourself when suddenly – you realize that this person of your dreams isn’t sitting down! Instead, your soulmate just came in to ask directions from the bartender and will be leaving in seconds. In a desperate act, you quickly grab a cocktail napkin from the bar and have just enough time to write five words that will convince this person that the two of you are destined for one another..."
