The Tuesday Ten

Last week, I launched a new series on One Fine Day -- Ten Random Things. And just as I'd hoped, my readers and fellow bloggers stepped up to the challenge. Have I ever told you how tickled I get when you all want to get involved? I had the best time reading through your random factoids. In an effort to make this bloggie community a tight-knit crew, I'll feature someone new each Tuesday. Buckle up, buttercup! 

Today, I'd like to introduce you to blogger, Ali Bronska, from A Dash of Details. 

10 Random Things: Ali Bronska

1. I was born and raised in Scottsdale, Arizona, and lived within the same 5-mile radius until I was 18 years old.  
2. If it was acceptable, I would eat noodles with butter and a pinch of salt every night.  I may become overly obese, but it would be well worth it.  
3. P tells me I have an addiction to buying striped shirts, and he may be right.  I have to confess that I own ten blue-and-white stripe shirts.  
4. When I was only three years old, I put on my first pair of ballet shoes. I grew up in my dance shoes and to this day I wish I was a professional ballerina.  
5. Being a dancer growing up, you can imagine that I was a super girly girl. I have a secret that most people who know me do not know -- I still have my bow collection from when I was a little girl.  There are pink ones, and green ones, polka dots -- you name it and I had it.  
6. A few years ago I was fortunate enough to study in Italy and travel to fourteen different cities during five months abroad.  My favorite place I traveled to was Cinque Terre, a city of five towns built into the mountains.  It is the most magical place I have ever been.  
7. I have a confession, I am terrible at tennis (well why I am being honest, all hand/eye sports).  I have tried, practiced, and attempted to play but I am just awful.  
8. I dream of someday opening an art gallery and event space, not of my art but with artwork of talented artists who love what they do.  
9. When I was growing up my dad was an architect.  Every weekend he would pull out his water colors but he wouldn't let me use his "good paints".  When I graduated college my dad bought me my own set of nice watercolors. 
10. Whenever I feel defeated or get discouraged at times I remind myself to "Never Forget That I Am Awesome". 

How can you go wrong with stripes, bows, art, and carbs? 

Around here, you're in good company, Ali! Thanks for sharing.
