I'd much rather talk about my kids' toys, but here are seven things you might not know about me.

1. I can correctly identify *and* sing along to 8 or 9 of 10 polka songs, and I don’t know why.
2. I am a roller derby grrrl.
3. I resent fruit for pretending it’s so easy to eat, when it actually requires all kinds of washing, peeling, and chopping to turn it into nice little bites.
4. I have never skied, eaten a biscotti, or watched Saturday Night Fever.
5. Robin Williams once cut me off and took the parking spot I wanted.
6. Tall ships make me swoon. In a dreamy schoolgirl crush kinda way.
7. I am not really left-handed.

My Fab Fifteen Baker's Dozen (in no particular order):

1. Living That Life / Firewife Elly - Did I mention she will make you a custom tutu?

10/12 - Introduction

Hello there. It all started when we were dancing around the living room to cowboy songs with our toy horses. I realized I had to leave for work, and put my assigned toy down. Lil' Guy looked at me with big brown eyes. "But you have to take her to work with you!"

From then on, I've been given a toy most mornings to take to work with me. I take some pix of the toy "helping" me and send it home. Interestingly enough, my friends and coworkers have been just as amused by this project as the kids. So, since I'm all about modeling good behavior (when I want to), I will share the joy. Because sharing is what this is all about. Awwww.
