Welcome Aboard!

I’m not too sure how to go about this so I thought I would start by introducing myself (having writers block is not helping the situation.) Most of you reading this probably already know me but for those that don’t WELCOME and here’s a little information about ME!

My name is Nikki and I am from a smaller town outside of Toronto, Canada, that’s right I’m Canadian EH! (For the record we don’t end ALL sentences with EH! Or pronounce about "A-BOOT" but thats for another blog all together ha-ha)

I enjoy being active (although lately the gym routine has become a bit more lax) I will pretty much try anything once and am quite competitive when doing so.

My favourite season is SUMMER and I spend most of my time at my family cottage located on a beautiful beach in Ontario. We pass the time around warm fires and great company.  The wine and beer is always flowing and the food so yummy! I am a beach bum and wouldn’t want to be anywhere else during the summer months.

Like most girls I love shopping, all kinds of shopping to be exact. I can spend hours in the cosmetic or lotion section at shopper’s drug mart. I truly love decorating and designing the home and clothing shopping is just a given. Although I HATE mindlessly walking through malls, I usually create list of things I desire and shop online most times before venturing to the mall to purchase such desired items

I LOVE to plan and throw parties, at the moment I do it as just a passion of mine but in my heart of hearts I believe I should be doing it as a career.

AND

I LOVE to dress up (not in the kinky way ha-ha) but in the Halloween costumes or theme party way. This is why I have thrown many parties which require a costume or have a clear theme.

Ok so maybe I have a problem ha-ha but the first step is admitting it right...right?

Moving on.....

I enjoy baking and cooking (although am a much better baker than cook as I like to follow recipes to the exact measurements and I find cooking always works better when you “throw a pinch of this and a dash of that”)

OH! and I have an abnormal addiction to CHEESE!...I'm serious its a real problem (for the wast line and the budget!) I dont like your fake processed cheese, rather I crave all the fine gourmet ones! I have tried to quit or cut down but that only leads to late night fridge binges and hiding under my covers getting cracker crumbs all over the place. 

CHEEEEEEEESSS CHEEEEESSSSS...this video pretty much explains how I act.

Recently my boyfriend (I will blog a bunch more about him) has accepted a job offer that is taking both of us across the country to VANCOUVER BC.

I guess this little tidbit is one of the reasons I decided to start this blog, as a way to stay in contact with the people we are leaving and also an outlet for me to express all the changes that are happening with us... oh and a space for me to post pretty much anything I want to!

I hope you stick around, it may be bumpy but I'm sure it will be quite the ride!
