Top Ten

I was cruising Big Picture Scrapbooking and daydreaming about the classes I'd take if I had the time and resources, and I stumbled upon this, kind of a bio about one of the instructors. Thought it'd be fun to do as a blog post. So I challenge anyone reading this who blogs, but particularly my scrappy friends Kelly, Shawn, Kerry, KM and Maricar to post their own top 10 lists. (Stop cursing at me, Kelly, this is fun, dammit!!) :)
