11 Questions from Wendy @ Read With Me ABC
  1. Why did you start blogging?  I've been following other teaching blogs for years and was never able to find a teacher as obsessed with dogs as I am or a "dog themed" education blog.  So I decided to make one and share all my resources!

  3. If you couldn't teach, what job would you have?  I would probably open my own dog boutique.
  4. I need a new book to read.  What do you recommend?  I sometimes like to read what the kids read because they always ask me "did you read this?"  (Veronica Roth Series, Vampire Academy, Sylvia Day Series, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, Revenge Wears Prada).
  5. Where is your favorite place to shop for "Teacher Clothes?"  Lilly Pulitzer and White House Black Market
  6. I love animals. Do you have any pets? YES, I have a Shih Tzu Terrier named Filly.
  7. What is your favorite TV show?  Supernatural
  8. I have a serious sweet tooth.  What is your favorite sweet treat?  Anything chocolate!
  9. Which of your TPT products is your favorite?  I don't have a TPT store yet, but of the resources I've purchased from other TPT stores, my favorite has to be the Dog Collection from Schoolgirl Style.
  10. If you could travel to a sunny location, where would it be?  I'd go back to Bermuda.  One of my most favorite vacations.
  11. Spread a little sunshine.  Share a favorite quote?  "Anything is possible with sunshine and a little pink." -- Lilly Pulitzer

  1. I love the dog collection from School Girl Style. My next door neighbor (at school) and I redid her room design this summer using that collection. It turned out so beautiful! Your quote is sweet-Lily rocks my world. Oh and I'm a mac person all the way! Happy Sunday!
