Love your list! Thanks for sharing it.
“wildflowers make my eyes sparkle”
That is the most beautiful thing ever said about wildflowers.
An writing my own 100 list!
Love the list. Love the photo. Love that you took the plunge + learning more about you.
Very fun to read. You are too cute, even with the green streaks. :)
Is it sad that the only thing on this list I didn’t know was the definition of Pescatarian? Well, maybe it’s only sad because you’re so far away now.
