Welcome!

About the Blog...

 
Welcome to A Cute Angle! The lifestyle blog was launched in June 2013 and was created as a place to women to gather and share their stories and ideas.




There are many different things on this blog that work to feature aspects of a woman's lifestyle. I often share favorite products and recipes, host giveaways, participate in link ups, and let the reader in on what's going on in my life. 
It's a safe place to receive encouragement from others and share with others. I am always looking for brave souls to share their stories, or at least a selfie. Don't be shy – no matter the walk of life I'd like to feature you. You can contact me via e-mail BloggerAsh703@gmail.com, on Twitter @ACuteLifestyle, or visit the Facebook page.

I don't claim to be a fashionista, personal trainer, therapist, makeup artist, or professional chef. I am just a normal girl - a girl who knows what she likes and likes what she knows.  

This blog wouldn't be possible with Tom McMeekin. To find out more or enlist his design, consultation, or editing skills check him out on Facebook or e-mail him at tmcmeeking@gmail.com. I am forever thankful for the time and energy that he has put into A Cute Angle. 
Thanks, Tom!

  • I enjoy watching shows about true crime.
  • I would love to put all my belongings into storage and travel through Europe for a year doing odd jobs.
  • I love country music!
  • I love my brother and sister more than anything; although, they probably don't know it.
  • I love reading.

  • I love reality TV.
  • If I had to pick a favorite TV show I'd pick The Bachelor and The Bachelorette.
  • I've written fiction since middle school.
  • I HATE cooking, but LOVE baking.
  • I wear reading glasses.
  • The nuttiest place I've ever visited was California. I'm an East Coast baby.
  • When I lived in Pennsylvania, I loved taking day trips to “The City.”
  • I'd like to visit: Montreal, Monaco, Holland, Ireland, go back and spend more time in Germany, Switzerland, Poland, Spain, Norway, Greece, Australia, Fiji, New Zeeland, The Grand Canyon, Nashville, and take my husband to Rome.
  • I hate all things citrus.
  • My sister is one of my best friends!
  • I live 600+ miles from where I grow up. I did it for a great guy.

  • I've never smoked a cigarette (or done illegal drugs).
  • I bit a girl at the park once because she shoved in between me and my sister in line for the slide. Don't mess with The Angle Sisters!
  • I grew up with a single dad.
  • I am allergic to penicillin, augmenton, maple, birch, and oak trees, cats, dogs, and fungi.
  • I hate sharing a bed.
  • I'm a terrible person to share a bed with.
  • I can't have my syrup touch my bacon.
  • Some of the most important lessons I've learned are: (1) with hard work anything can happen, (2) always be yourself, (3) be responsible for your own actions, own up to your mistakes, don't place the blame somewhere else, (4) the size of your success is based on the size of your belief, (5) life's not fair (6) love, love, love
