Korean, Zooey Deschanel & Chocolate Ganache

I was tagged by the lovely Tonya behind the awesome Kotori blog.

What's your current obsession? Collecting Tea Cups and mismatched plates.

What's your weirdest obsession? Texas Grapefruit before bed every day. I almost can't sleep without one. And note it's the Texas variety that I am obsessed with, they are so sweet, and not ridiculously bitter.

What are you wearing today? Jeans and a tank top.

Why is today special? Brian proposed to me one year ago from today!

What would you like to learn to do? speak Korean

What's for dinner today? Chicken and Cauliflower with Cheese Sauce

What's the last thing you bought? A Chocolate Raspberry Tart with Dark Chocolate Ganache (one among a few desserts).

What's your favorite weather? When it's warm but breezy, and when everything around me is a bright shade of green.

What's your most challenging goal right now? Deciding where to buy a house!

What do you think about the person who tagged you? OK, the first thing that drew me to Kotori was that Tonya has AMAZING taste - her home is gorgeous, and a lot of her decorating details are do-it-yourself (I have bookmarked some of her ideas for when we get our own place). Tonya also has really great recipes that are so easy to make! Tonya is basically a creative genius, and is willing to share her secrets with us bloggers!

If you could have a house totally paid for, fully furnished anywhere in the world, where would you like it to be? Back in my homeland - Australia. Specifically in the town of Noosa, where i used to live. Right on the beach would be lovely!

Favorite vacation spot? I loved Santorini in Greece, and Switzerland is gorgeous too, and I loved New York. Too many good ones, but those are the top three!

What would you like to have in your hands right now? A pair of airline tickets to Australia.

What would you like to get rid of? National Debt.

If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go? California to see my family.

What's your favorite thing about the city you live in? Houston is so diverse and has so much culture! Theatre, museums, parks, events, shopping, you name it - it's here (ok, no snowboarding - but I only did that once or twice a year before I moved here anyway!)

If you had $150 now what would you spend it on? A room at a cute little bed and breakfast for the night.

Do you admire anyone's style? Zooey Deschanel. She always looks so pretty in a quirky, unique way. Not like the usual generic Hollywood clones. I don't know who to give the kudos to - her or her stylist if she has one.

Describe your personal style. I love feeling girly. So even if I am wearing jeans and a t-shirt, I will add feminine touches like a necklace or dangly earrings and heels.

Who's fashion show would you want tickets to? I am not really in-the-know about designers and who designs what. I see things I like but have no idea who designed them!

What are three live shows that you have seen? Wicked on Broadway, the Vienna Ballet Company in Vienna, and Cirque De Soleil's Mystere in Las Vegas.
