To Know You

Yesterday this little bloggy hit 200 followers and I can't tell you how excited that makes me! (What makes me even more excited is that I know there are more readers that registered as followers!)
While I can go on and on about how much I heart & appreciate you and host giveaways to thank you, one of the most rewarding things is getting to know you a little more. I had lots of fun reading through your answers here and here and can't wait to read your answers to today's!

Lately I've been listening to:
Grace Potter & The Nocturnals; Florence & The Machine; Bon Iver; Sigur Ros; Jack Johnson; Brett Dennen.
Honestly, I haven't found anything fabulous lately and would really like to, so if you have some suggestions I'd love to hear them!

Reading:
I stayed up way too late last night finishing The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets Nest, I haven't decided what my next read is.

Wearing:
Dresses, I have to wear a uniform at work so when I get done I live my life in dresses.

Watching:
Not a ton of TV, we've been pretty busy lately, but I love Intervention & Criminal Minds (in addition to some trashy shows like Teen Mom and Sixteen and Pregnant)

Eating:
BLUEBERRIES! Jus & I love frozen blueberries and we go through them like crazy. And ice cream, I always try to get Jus to make a meal out of ice cream and we eat ice cream 4 or 5 times a week.

Working on:
Wedding stuff, wedding stuff, wedding stuff, and a little on our back hall.

Ok, your turn!

PS Don't forget to sign up for the giveaway!
