I like...

I've been getting very annoyed at things lately. I partially blame the election; it brings out the crazy in people. I've had to severely limit my Facebook and Pinterest time, because getting on them just makes me upset. I have thought about doing a rant-y blog post (I'm great at being rant-y), but figured that would probably just put me in a worse mood. I decided to instead take the high road and write a happy blog post. So instead of anger, you get a slightly incoherent jumble of things that I like.

I like tall girls that wear high heels, and short girls that wear flats. Not letting your height determine your shoe options is serious kudos in my book.

I like butternut squash. I'm obsessed. I think butternut squash should replace the whole pumpkin obsession everyone seems to have. (I am doing a butternut squash post on the food blog later. I know, I've been a little MIA, I'm trying to fix that).

I like my height. It always seems that tall people want to be short, and short people want to be tall, not me. I am happy at my 5 feet 2 inches. Yeah, I may need a foot stool to reach the top shelf, but I can still comfortably ride Puff at Lagoon.

I like eating with forks. Spoons are for soup, cereal, and ice cream, and sometimes I even attempt to eat those things with a fork.

I like hanging out with geeks. The more I interact with people, the more I realize how geeky I have become. Gaming tournament = Being with really nice, fun people. Story time at the library = Me questioning wanting to interact with people ever again.

I like spiders. I pick them up, let them crawl on me, and give them names. I don't pick up poisonous ones, so I'm not super crazy. I think spiders are awesome. They have such an elegance about them. They help kill all the stupid mosquitoes too; how could you not like that?

I like eating breakfast for dinner. French toast is probably one of my favorite dinners ever. Maybe I should make butternut squash french toast, that could be magnificent.

I like slobbery baby kisses, 6 am wake up calls, peanut butter hand prints, nap time tantrums, and crayon scribbles in my books. I like Juliet. But really, who doesn't?
