Finish This: Week Forty-two

My mother would like to point out that there are less than 10 Saturdays until Christmas. Which makes sense, given that we are in Week Forty-two of 2014. Ei yi yi.

Linking up with the ever-fabulous Nicole at Three 31, Lisa at Coastlined, Becky at The Java Mama, and Jen at The Arizona Russums.


It took me a long time to realize that touch is my main love language and that I am not a freak for wanting to connect with people through an arm pat, a hug, a high-five, etc. I walked around high school for three years wondering why I wanted touch so much, and then my dad, while asking Dahlia what her love language was, gave me as an example: "Rebekah's love language is touch." I was stunned, yet it made perfect sense!

I surround myself with order, black-and-white {this color combo brings me so much joy}, adventurous friends, and fantastic wine {19 Crimes, anyone?}. 

This week's prompts are short and sweet because Nicole is helping us prepare for our Year in Review post, which is hella long, and we only have 10 weeks to finish it - yikes!

Thanks for joining!

  2. Oh yes! My love language is the same ... it took me a while to understand that as well & had to explain to my boyfriend (now husband) that if he didn't hug me hello, or pat my arm, I felt like there was a disconnect between us.

  3. Isn't it funny how much of a difference knowing your love language makes?! Now that I know, I am much more confident in showing affection, and I'm more attentive to what others' love languages are. Have you read the book?

  4. Mmm, so great. Are you a red or white wine person?

  5. Definitely!


    And no, I haven't read the book ... but I did complete the 5 Love Languages profile with Caleb when we were dating.

  6. Oh the profile is good to do, too. I make my friends take it if they haven't already - what a good conversation starter! :)

  7. White and blush wines.. Never been a big fan of red. What about u?

  8. I started with white and now am a red fan... apparently that transition has to do with your taste buds maturing from white {sweeter} to red {not sweet}... crazy! My favorites are 19 Crimes and Menege Troix :)

  10. Oh interesting. I never heard of anyone's love language being touch, I love it! And I love the idea of black and white being around you :)

  11. Angie, have you read the book "The 5 Love Languages"? It explains them all pretty well, and since reading it, I find that I can guess others' love languages pretty well. :)
    Yes! Black and white are my favorite! :)
