I'm Into It...

I discovered this pretty cool linky party that Hope Studios is doing called "You're Into It." One thing that the results from the poll is showing me is that you like personal stories of mine. I figured this would be a fun way for you to personally get to know me a little better. Here it goes!

These are some of the things that I'm majorly into as of late:

My Poverty and Justice Bible that I got as a Christmas gift from my husband. It's the only thing I wanted for Christmas. I love it! Since social justice is one of my biggest passions, I'm really enjoying being able to read my Bible every day and see all of the verses highlighted about social justice. God definitely had a lot to say about social justice. Jesus was a social activist, loving every single person everywhere He went. Did you know that there are over 2,000 verses on social justice? If you're interested in buying it, go HERE. (Cheapest I've found it on the web!)

One of the main ways I am Getting Thin in 2010 is by doing Zumba 3-4 times a week. It is the best workout, and the greatest thing is that you do not feel like you're working out at all! It's an hour-long class, and you can burn up to 1000 calories in just one class. This is how I lost weight for our wedding, and now I am returning to it once again. It makes our budget very tight, but it's worth it to me. I know that it's a workout I will actually stick with because I enjoy it so much!

Bethany Dillon is one of my favorite music artists out there. She's always inspired me. She has one of the biggest hearts for God I've ever seen, she writes and plays her own music, her voice is gorgeous, and her lyrics are incredible. She's so real. Do yourself a favor...go download "Hallelujah" by Bethany Dillon (acoustic version is best). The song is amazing. It's hard to pick just one song that I love, but this song has always helped me praise God, even in the darkest of times.

I would do a commercial for Back To Nature. I am obsessed with their Chocolate Delight granola. When it goes on sale at Publix, I grab about 6 bags of it! Next time it's on sale, give it a try. SO yummy! I also love this company because they are organic, rain forest certified, and fair trade certified.

I have always loved dangly earrings. You almost never see me without some type of dangly earrings on. Lately, though, I have a love for wooden dangly earrings, like these! They are so light-weight and you can barely even tell they're hanging from your ears! And the designs and colors are so bold and awesome!

Oh man...I'm really putting myself out there on this next one. But isn't blogging all about being real with your readers and being yourself? Don't think I'm weird...

Yep, I'm a "trekkie." Bet you would have NEVER guessed that one, huh!? It really does actually fit me, considering I love Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, King Arthur, etc. I always thought Star Trek was stupid and very "nerdy." About a year and a half ago, though, my husband and I decided to give it a try. They have all of the Star Trek series and seasons at our local library. We already went through all 3 seasons of The Original Series. Now we are on season 3 of The Next Generation, and it is amazing. I like it way better than the Original Series. So, no, we never watch TV...but almost every night my husband and I sit down to watch a Star Trek episode with a bowl of popcorn. Please don't judge us...He He.

Since we went Vegetarian over 6 months ago, I have fallen in love with Indian Cooking. My friend Blake introduced me to it, and I thought it was quite strange at first. I now love it more than almost any other type of cuisine. It is so delicious, full of flavor, low-fat, healthy, and colorful! Curries are so much fun to make...and SO easy!

Hope it was fun learning a little bit more about me...and knowing that I enjoy more in life than just coupons, Publix, and Swag Bucks! Ha ha!

What About You: What are you into??? I'd love to get to know my readers a little more!!!
