Our Fabulous Design Team!

Hello!  I’m very pleased to introduce you all to our new Design Team!

Now, instead of doing the usual short bio, we each answered a silly questionnaire that I made.

Alison!

1.What is your favorite color combo?

That's a tough question, as I have several favorites. But one of my go-to combos is teal, purple, hot pink and lime green.

2. Are you a perky morning person, or a night owl?

I would say that I am more of a morning person. I can get a lot done in the morning, whereas at night, I prefer to just chill.

3. Do you play video games?(If so, what are your favorites?)

I LOVE me some video games! Unfortunately, with 2 little ones, it's hard to find time to play...especially since the games I prefer aren't really kid friendly, like Mortal Kombat. I also love Tetris, Legend of Zelda games, Epic Mickey, Soul Calibur, Super Mario Bros....the list can go on for a while!

4. If you could be a tree, what tree would you be?

Another tough question! I would probably say either a maple or a redwood. Maples are beautiful trees, with gorgeous wood, and let's not forget the syrup! And redwoods are just stunning. The height of them is awe inspiring.

5. What is your favorite number?

My favorite number is 2. I don't know why. I've just always like it, which is weird, since I typically prefer things assymetrical.

6. Who would you want to portray you in a movie of your life?

Maybe Fariuza Balk. People always used to mistake me for her, and she is totally weird enough to be me. 

7. White, milk, or dark chocolate?

Milk. While I love all 3 (even though white chocolate isn't really chocolate), I prefer the creaminess of milk chocolate. Though, as I am typing this up, I am snacking on dark chocolate covered almonds!

8. Fiction or Nonfiction?

Depends on the genre. My favorite type on fiction is paranormal romance, specifically if the story includes vampires. As far as non-fiction, I love to read New Age books, though it has been a while since I have read one.

9. What was the last movie you saw in a theatre?

Breaking Dawn Part 2. LOVED that movie!!!! I don't frequent the theatre very often. 

10. List one more random thing about yourself.

My kids' bedroom used to be our library. It was Egyptian themed, so I wrote on one of the wall -in heiroglyphics- "Shut up and read." We still have it on the wall, and my kids LOVE to read.

Black, White, Grey, and Red

2.  Are you a perky morning person, or a night owl?

Honestly both, I can stay up late and still get up early and be ok, although I have to admit I love getting up early cause that is my time!!!  My time to reflect and plan my day!

3.  Do you play video games?(If so, what are your favorites?)

Yes, Spyro is my all time favorite, all of them.  But right now my favorite is Alice Madness Returns

4.  If you could be a tree, what tree would you be?

an Oak tree

5.  What is your favorite number?

4

6.  Who would you want to portray you in a movie of your life?

Melissa McCarthy or Roseann Barr, because I am all about embracing my sarcastic smartassness

7.  White, milk, or dark chocolate?

absolutely positively DARK

Fiction
