Tagged!! - 10 of my Favorite Things

I was tagged by Nicole sometime ago to do a blog post about 10 of my Favorite things. So here goes, not in any order!

1. Macaroons - I simply LOVE LOVE them. So light & tasty treats. The really good ones are quite expensive in Singapore. Nevertheless, I can never control myself to get some every time I walk pass a Macaroons / Pastry shop. My favorite flavor is Hazelnuts!
   
   
2. Souffle - This is another French dessert that I simply must have if it is ever on the menu. I recall visiting a restaurant in Paris which specializes in Souffles. They have the savory ones which we do not get in Singapore.
   
   
3. Sex & the City - Even though the TV series has stopped running and the movie is out. I still love the show and somehow you never get tired of watching them over and over again. Even if it is just to check out the fashion, bags & shoes. :)
   
   
   
   
4. God - HE is my everything and without him, nothing around me would matter and anything is possible with Him by my side.
   
   
5. My Hubby & Family - He is my life partner and best friend. He makes me laugh & giggle like a little girl. We share everything (almost) and I thank #4 for making him mine. Family (mum, dad, in laws, siblings) is always something close to my heart.
   
   
6. Pigs - Love them since I was little. I think they are just adorable whether they are babies or adults. Thus my shop name I guess.
   
   
   
   
   
7. Moscato or Ice Wine - My favorite drink. I can drink this all night long...
   
   
8. Music - I am always humming a tune, whether I am walking along the street or having a shower. I love music of all genres but rock, alternative, punk, jazz, house & chill are some of my favorite.
   
   
9. My bed - The place that I spend at least 7 hours in. Got a nice king size one that is simply divine.
   
   
10. My Car - I don't owe a very fancy car (I drive a Toyota Altis) but I simply can't live without having one after driving for so many years. Even though Singapore is a small country. The convenience is something that I have gotten used to and taken for granted sometimes :P Although now I have to share it with my hubby.. kekek :)
    

Not sure how many of mine are also your favorites.. but do share yours.

2009 - Top 3 Items

It's almost the end of the year. 2009 has been a great year for me in terms of my Etsy shop as well as my day job. It was also a great year for my family. Looking back, I decided to do a tabulation of the top 3 best selling items in my shop.

Counting down... At
#3 - Cute Birds in Chains. Earrings

This pair of earrings was a surprise for me as I thought the big hook ones will sell better. I love chain earrings and will definitely make more in the new year. Birds have been one of the hot items in 2009. Status: Available in brass, silver or gold.

#2 - Little Robot Love. Necklace

I love this little robot. There is some geeky-ness in this cute little thing that is just perfect for girls like me who loves computers and is in the technology industry. Status: Sold Out.

And... the #1 is...
#1 - Hedgehog. Necklace

This does not come as a surprise for me as who doesn't love hedgehogs?! They are simply adorable animals that are curls but feisty when provoked. Hmm.. doesn't that sound like some people we know (ourselves)? :) Status: Available with Limited Stock.

So do you agree with the results? :)

Top Sellers - Singapore

A fellow Singaporean Etsy seller sent me a convo with this link! I was so amazed that she actually took the effort to do up a countdown of the top sellers in Singapore and even looking to post more countdowns like the top sellers on Etsy, the top sellers of vintage, supplies, handmade items etc..

.. and I am so blessed to make it to the #13 spot!! Here's the amazing list and her link to find out more.

** speech : I would like to thank my customers for this honor to be in the #13 spot. I will strive to do better next year. ** :D
