Good morning, an exciting Superbowl, don't you think? I am not even a football fan but it was thrilling to see the Giants claim victory! Both amazing teams though. I am really happy and excited to be here with a brand new series, entitled One Word to take the place of my Behind the blogger. Its another fun, interactive and interesting way to get to know your favorite bloggers. Today I am thrilled to present Brooke from Velvet and Linen, it is only appropriate I "christen" this series with Brooke as my first guest because incidentally Brooke's fabulous blog was the first blog I ever read, and trust me that is way before I even knew I was reading "a blog". It wasn't until many months later, that I even realized what a blog was. All I knew was I would visit her site and all of these magical pictures would appear, and there was seemingly a never ending supply, then when I would click on other little pictures...voila! I would be transported to even more special sites where more magical pictures awaited me. Boy I have come a long way since then!
And that my friends...... is how I started off in blogland, so thanks Brooke for making Velvet and Linen such a beautiful place to visit that I kept wanting to go back (and still do)! Brooke has been at this for awhile now and in addition to her beautiful blog, she and her architect husband Steve run a very successful design firm out of California though their work takes them all over. In addition you would have to be living under a rock to not have seen or heard about their beautiful new book, Patina Style that she and Steve recently wrote. Its a favorite of mine and I have since given a few out as gifts. Highly recommend! So without further adieu here is Brooke in one word......
