Fint i Danmark: Did you know...

Jan. 13th-
Julie KING Richardson just tagged me in a sort of blog competition to see if you could learn the most about your friends, and well, I don't have enough people to tag myself but I thought it sounded fun to play! The objective is to get your friends to reveal 6 things about themselves that you wouldn't otherwise know.

My random six:

1) I have a wonderful friend named Julie K. R. who is my only friend currently with adorable babies. Living out in Seattle I was "just around the corner" from her WA home down near Portland. I've been spoon feeding "Aunt Kelly" to her children ever since I first started going there. Haha. Julie's a great mom who spends so much time coming up with cool crafts to do for and with her kids. She follows a bunch of blogs and I

follow hers http://richardsonshine.blogspot.com/ to get updated on Celia and Madsen whenever I am not around, because I usually start missing them before I am even out the door. This is my confession that I am forcing Julie's kids to accept me and love me as their "Auntie".

2) I have another wonderful friend named Jacqueline Kipp who also keeps a blog! http://zenacres.blogspot.com/ She has been married now for a year and a half and she and her husband Joe have committed to living an organic, sustainable lifestyle. This blog records their efforts. My confession is that I have tried to be like Jackie and I planted a few feeble tomato plants in my Seattle backyard and I killed them. Or the frost did or the bugs, but I only got two tomatoes out of them the whole season. I think what I'm saying is that I'm a bad gardener!
3) Last year I took the Myers Briggs personality assessment and I found out that I am an ENFP. E is extrovert, N is intuitive, F is feeling, and P is perceiving. These are the exact opposite letters of a typical engineer!!!! No wonder why I feel like I'm in the wrong profession! Also, this exact personality type has THE hardest time making decisions because everything sounds so good they can't commit to one thing. Ahhh, reality phobe... that's me!! I also share this personality type with my Aunt Donna, isn't that cool? I highly suggest taking this test if you're curious what you're personality is described as because from my experience it is dead on accurate;)
4) I once tried out for a casting call in Boston and got rejected first round, ouch!
5) I had braces until my senior year in high school and I always smiled with my mouth shut.
6) I had two sisters growing up.. one sweet, fake one called Theresa and one real, manipulative one named Marybeth;)

Thanks Julie that was fun! Stories from everybody else are welcome in the comments or you can email them to me. What would your six random fun facts be??

Alright now, one last time to speak of Kinger, I went to a modern art museum in Denmark this past weekend and thou

ght of her because I know she'd love it! Its called Louisiana ("Loos-iana") http://www.louisiana.dk/dk
I loved it too. Its in a beautiful setting just north of here and it's right on the coast. The museum makes great use of the park around it and provides a real serene, contemplative environment. You can get away from people and

sit out by the ocean and get some peace and quiet. I really liked it up there. I wouldn't say I'm very big on museums but after spending the day there, taking my time and walking around the park,

I really had a new appreciation for the modernist art form. The exhibit that I really liked was by Per Kirkeby, a Danish artist. http://www.smk.dk/smk.nsf/docs/Kirkeby
There was also an exhibit on MANGA which is that Japanese cartoon style of drawing. It was

actually really informative and covered a broad scale of media from ancient Japanese books to comic strips, tv series and now modern day anime.

I made one other stop that day up to Helsingor. Probably the most well known castle in Denmark, because of its ties to Shakespeare, is there. It's called Kronborg Slot. This castle is
