What do you do for a living? 
I work for a social service organization that assists seniors.

What is your favorite way to spend a Sunday? 
Sundays are my lazy day. I like to wake up late, have brunch with my fiance (usually at home), watch a movie, catch up on some reading.

What is your dream vacation spot? 
I'd love to take an African Safari someday.

What beauty item could you not live without? 
Lip balm. I am an addict. It's the only beauty item I use daily.

What two people (past or present) would you have as guests at a dinner party and why? 
My paternal grandma and Oprah.

My grandmother died when I was very young. She's always fascinated me. She sailed with her parents from Russia at very young age. My father and his sisters don't seem to know much about her life in Russia or much before she married my grandfather. I'd love to learn more family history.

Oprah, well because she's Oprah. She went from a small talk show in Chicago to being a world wide conglomeration. I'd love to hear some of the stories she doesn't tell on television.

What is the best piece of advice you've ever received? 
Be true to yourself. My mom gave a card filled with advice right before she became ill. But learning to listen to me has definitely been the best advice.

What are your three favorite blogs besides blueorchidblog.com?

Weddingbee - I love all the different bees and getting to hear about all their planning.

Southern Wedding Style - I love the South and sometimes dream about living there.

Junebug Weddings - probably the first wedding related blog I started reading.

Thanks, Linda!
