Guest Post: The Freakin' Fun Gabby

[It's Shabbat again and you know what that means: rest, rest, rest! So we're gonna do just that. Yanno, walk around the area, lounge in the Red Sea and on the beach and then have a free night on the town in Eilat. I might just see a few old girlfriends tonight. We'll see! Heeeere's Gabby!]

Hello! My name is Gabby and my little corner of the web is called gabby, she wrote. I've been a fan of Ali's blog for a while and I am so super excited for her and her trip! Can't wait to hear about it!

So, guest posting is always a little nerve wracking, especially when you're told you can write about whatever you please. I mean, I can't even decide if I am more appalled or entertained when I watch Jersey Shore! So I was going through my inspiration folders and got to thinking...

I love this room. If I lived here, I would be the type of girl who drank champagne cocktails nightly. A weekend jaunt to Jackson Hole or Honolulu would be the norm. I would be the type of girl who used the word "jaunt". If I lived here, I would own leather pants. I would definitely have a house cleaner. If I lived here, I would go to bed with a sleeping mask on and wake up with gorgeously tousled hair.

I love this room. If I lived here, I would be the type of girl who would wear a ridiculously cute apron over ridiculously cute jeans all day long. I probably made the pillow. If I lived here, you would walk in and smell apple pie. And I would offer it to you and my golden retriever would probably jump up on you but you would laugh. If I lived here, I would sing "Edelweiss" to my babies. Oh, I have babies (if I lived here, not for reals whoa whoa whoa).
Unfortunately, I don't live in any of these rooms. I do live on a man-made nature reserve (what's that about? i mean really). I do drink champagne when the occasion calls for it. And I do sing "Edelweiss" to my little neurotic chihuahua whenever I can. Life is good...and maybe one day I'll be that type of girl.

I think you did a lovely job guest-posting Gabby :) It's always fun to think how people live in certain environments, especially based on how the rooms are designed. Love how I keep seeing these fireplaces being used as bookshelves. It's quite catching.

"I love this room. If I lived here I..." That would be a fun, easy meme to play with. I might have at it myself :o)

Love room #1!
