Thank you so much to http://ediblesubstance.wordpress.com/for nominating me. I’m a relatively new blogger and this is such a fun way to start dialog between bloggers –  I’m so happy to have been nominated!

The rules for the award are:
1) Thank the person who nominated me and link back to them in my post.

2) Share 7 things about myself

3) Pass the award on to 15 more bloggers that I enjoy

4) Contact the bloggers I have chosen to let them know that they have been selected!

Okay so seven things about myself
1.  I graduated from NYU where I double majored in journalism and history.

2.  I spent about two months in Africa studying maternal mortality, learning how to properly dance, and eating lots of goat meat.

3.  I’m the production manager at Relix, the best music magazine available.

4. I love comic books and graphic novels.

5. I’m a big Star Wars geek.

6. I have a knee sock collection that could put school girls to shame.

7. I have one kidney.
