A Milestone!

Photo from Glogirly

Wow, it is hard to believe that this day has arrived after only 5 months! I am very excited that today is my 100th post on Canoe Design!  I have really enjoyed creating each and every of my 100 posts and hope that you have enjoyed reading them.  My introduction to the blogging world has been one that I am touroughly enjoying and I have met some really wonderful people. I love being part of this community and thank you all for your continued readership, connections and support. 

I am also happy to reveal my blog's new look!  I thought that this would be a good opportunity for a little make-over, and being new to HTML, it has taken a little time to plan, but I hope you all like it!

As this is (at least for me) a pretty big milestone, I thought I would share 10 things about me and my blog with you...just so we can get to know each other a little better.

1. I am a die-hard blackberry fan and cannot every imagine switching to an iphone - I might eat these words in the years to come, however for now I am holding strong. 

2. My blogging buddy is our Italian Greyhound Lina - she is a great support and is always by my side!

3. I only signed up for a twitter account 4 days ago. I know...behind the curve.

4. My favorite drink at Starbucks is a "Half-sweet-skinny-chai-with-a-shot-of-espresso". Also known as a Dirty Chai!

5. I have just finished a series of interviews for a top Manhattan Interior Design company, and am crossing my fingers that things work out.
6. Scary movies and roller coasters terrify me.

7. I have been fortunate enough to travel to some incredible places in the world including the Galapagos Islands, Fiji, Costa Rica, the Maldives, France, Italy, New Zealand and Australia to name a few.

8. My girly guilty pleasure is to get my nails done on a regular basis.

9. I miss the incredible Gastro Pubs in London. We have seen some here in Manhattan, but nothing compared to what there was in the UK.

10. I love everything to do with the water and if I hadn't become a Interior Designer I wanted to be a Marine Biologist!

  5. I love the new look!!!!

    So many pieces of information, I don't know where to start!

    1) Good luck with the big job potential!!

    2) I have officially become an iPhone geek. Sorry BB.

    3) Doesn't html make you want to pull your hair out? When I first started my blog I used to change things all the time. . . now I am so lazy with it!

    4) 100 posts is awesome! You're moving up there A.
