Community Matters - Meeting Carolina Girls Is Fun

Hey y'all is it really Wednesday! Well, I am introducing one of the special "Carolina Girls!" because Tuesday was such an awesome day, I got carried away and it Works For Me Wednesday to introduce you to our Carolina Girls girlfriends rollcall today. And it WFMW even more to share with you that Community Matters. So with out much ado I introduce to you: Meet Carolina Girl, Antique or Not.

Where are you from (can be as general as you wish)?

I’m a native of Charlotte, North Carolina. Have lived several other places, but have always come back home.

What is the name of your blog?

Antique or Not

How did you name your blog?

My blog was originally intended to be a “business” blog, so I named it after my company. I came up with “Antique or Not” because I wanted to convey that I sell antiques, but I didn’t want to limit myself. I thought, well, I want to sell things whether they are antique or not, and that’s how the company (and the blog) got its name.

How did you get into blogging?

I accidentally stumbled across a really cool blog, which led me to another and another. Soon after that some of my friends started blogging so I thought I’d give it a whirl!

What do you wish to convey on your blog?

I have to convey something? And here I thought I was doing okay just rambling along…LOL

What is your favorite thing about your blog?

I love my blog’s graphics; every time I open it up it makes me feel good. Thanks Shabby Miss Jenn! And I love that it gives me the chance to write every day. One of these days, that novel that’s lurking somewhere deep inside me is gonna come out!

What is your favorite Ben N Jerry's Flavor?

Coffee Heath Bar Crunch….yummmmmmm!

What is your favorite song/iTune right now?

I’m a bit behind the times; no iPod for me. But the song that I never tire of…that always makes me happy…is Izzy Kamakawiwo’ole’s medley “Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World”. It gives me chillbumps!

Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts? ;)

Gotta rock the boat here…I’ve been a Krispy Kreme girl since I was in diapers.

What is your favorite Carolina Place or Food?
Hmmm…favorite Carolina place and food…deep fried onion rings from South 21! Whenever I’ve lived other places and came back home to visit, that’s the first place I wanted to go to…I missed those onion rings! (Between you and me, hubby and I are moving out west later in the year and one of my big concerns was what I was going to do without my comfort food from South 21.) Here’s a link to a page where there are a lot of pics of South 21.

Thanks much Antique or Not!

Warmly,
