Liebster Award
So...something super unexpected and exciting happened to me a few days ago, and I'm just now getting around to sharing it. The Liebster Award is something that is given to lovely little blogs all over the internet with under 200 followers so that those blogs can gain popularity. To my complete surprise, someone nominated me! Isn't it crazy to think that a person other than you enjoys reading your thoughts? 'Cause...I think it's pretty great. Emma, the mastermind behind A Winter's Walk is the person I have to thank for the publicity :) So, thanks Emma! Click here to go and read the original post on her blog, follow her, and check out all her awesome recommendations!
The Rules
-You have to link back to the person who nominated you
-State 11 facts about yourself
-Answer all the questions you have been given
-Nominate 11 other bloggers and create 11 new questions for them to answer
-You can't nominate the person who originally nominated you
-You have to inform the people you nominate that you did, indeed nominate them
The Facts

2. I have a cousin who was born only four days after I was
3. I can't touch my tongue to the roof of my mouth

6. I'm obsessed with cranberry Red Bull

10. I can't get back massages because it tickles too much
11. I did cheer in high school
Questions To Answer
1. What is the meaning behind your blog name?
-My family has a cottage up in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. There's a sign that hangs over the back door that says "seabee" on it. Some of my very best memories were made there, so it reminds me of summers gone by.
2. Who is your blogging inspiration?
-Sprinkle Of Glitter is definitely one of the main reasons I started blogging, but as far as inspiration goes, I can't really say there's one person in particularly responsible. I'm inspired by great stories and lovely pictures.
3. Whose blog design do you love the most?
-Hmm...I'm not sure exactly. I'm in love with Beauty Becky's design right now...it's very minimalist, fresh, clean and girly.
4. Where do you want blogging to take you?
-Hopefully far! No...but seriously. I'd love to do anything with food, design, beauty. Maybe pull a Tanya Burr and have my own makeup range :)
5. Where is your favorite holiday destination?
-I went all over Europe when I was 10 years old, and since that trip, it has been my favorite. Crossing my fingers for another trip to Paris!
6. Where would you like to live one day?
-Honestly, I'd like to live in the French countryside...but, seeing as that probably won't happen, I'd be content as long as I had the people I love the most around me.
7. What achievement are you most proud of?
-I'm not sure exactly. I'm rarely very proud of myself, but whenever I cook or bake something that I thought would be difficult, I definitely feel a sense of accomplishment. Also, I'm pretty proud of my little blog so far :)
8. Describe your fashion sense in five words.
-Comfy. Polished. Classic. Flattering. Modest.
9. What's your guilty pleasure?
-JUNK FOOD! Without a doubt. Gummy Bears, Carbs (of all kinds, I don't discriminate), Cool Ranch Doritos, Fruit Loops, Little Debbie Swiss Rolls, PB&J, Japanese or Thai food, and Kemp's Strawberry Froyo
10. Do you have any blogging regrets?
-Not starting sooner and Google Adsense...dang you, Google Adsense...(I'm obviously still harboring some resentment over that one)
11. What are three things you're wishing for right now?
-An opportunity to move into my own home
-Some finality and stability in personal situations
-For my anxiety to get better
