It is said that there are certain people that are connectors, people that join others together...
Ina is a connector. I would have to say that most of us that read her blog now read each others. A wide and varied group are we!
There are certain themes that resonate, interests that we share. Because memes are so popular with bloggers and on facebook I thought I would do a 25 things I know about Ina. if I leave anything out, please let me know.
Here goes:
- LOVES, no really loves dogs, especially hers!
- LOVES, seriously loves her husband and family.
- Has purple streaks in her hair.
- Is from new Jersey.
- Looks at licence plates...a lot.
- Loves shoes.
- Has champagne EVERY Thursday.
- Has a wonderful neighbor named Joan.
- believes passionately in animal rescue.
- has some Italian roots.
- Works in her husband's law office.
- An avid tennis player.
- An avid Yankee fan, no make that passionate!
- Changes her header picture on her blog more frequently than anyone I know!
- She is a reader.
- She is a traveler.
- She is close to her family in NJ.
- She is a creative cook and hostess.
- She is a thoughtful and supportive member of the blogging community.
- She has expensive taste. ( you know what I mean INA!)
- She loves UGGS.
- She reads the NYtimes every Sunday.

- **I can't believe I didn't include this from the beginning cuz not everyone would know this-unless you read her blog. INA BLOGS FROM ALASKA!!!
Most of all, what I really know about Ina, (without ever meeting her in person) is that she is a loyal, supportive, curious, interesting, funny, gutsy, and adventurous friend.
She is someone that I want in my book group, to go on a road trip with, shop, and have a drink with!
I think if you read her blog you know what I am talking about and if you don't...
Read her blog and you will be like me and consider Ina a true friend!
XOXO Ina.

Oh Wow, Preppy, I am sincerely impressed at how accurately you have described me! I love people and am indeed a people person! I am thankful to have met this amazing circle of friends from all parts of the globe and enjoy my DAILY visits with all of you. I change my header to keep it fresh and show off parts of my world... I'll add a couple more to the list....
!. I love the Jersey Shore and get back there at least 2 times each year
2. In addition to my spendy tastes, I also love a deal and have found many unworn bargains (not that hat) at resale consignment shops
3. My wish would be to gather all of you together for an in-person visit and a glass of bubbly with Joan.....
4. Love to play games!!
(I love that picture of me and Snowzilla!)
