\"MeganStickel\"
\nMegan Stickel, UncommonGoods Associate Buyer, Children & Desktop<\/em><\/p>\n

My hometown\u2026<\/strong>
\nPhillipsburg, NJ<\/a> \u2013 known for having one of the oldest football rivalries in the country with neighboring Easton, PA. I never went to a single game but apparently it\u2019s a big deal.<\/p>\n

An uncommon fact about me…<\/strong>
\nI enjoy doing chores. Mowing the lawn has always been a favorite and I find weed whacking<\/a> to be especially satisfying and fun.<\/p>\n

My guilty pleasure is\u2026<\/strong>
\nHaving too many cats.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m passionate about\u2026<\/strong>
\nTacos.<\/p>\n

The most beautiful thing I\u2019ve ever seen is\u2026<\/strong>
\nIt\u2019s a toss-up between the Great Ocean Road<\/a> in Australia and Bjork at ACL (Austin City Limits)<\/a> in 2007.<\/p>\n

My favorite place to eat in New York City is\u2026<\/strong>
\nToo many places! I really love this Korean place called Hangawi<\/a> where you have to take your shoes off. Other favorites are Candle Caf\u00e9<\/a>, Champs Diner<\/a>, and Angelica Kitchen<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When I\u2019m not working, I\u2019m probably\u2026<\/strong>
\nObsessively cleaning my apartment. Once I finish with that, I usually like to hang out on this random stoop with my friends \u2013 sounds lame but it\u2019s actually perfect because none of us live there, so people just come and go as they please. No commitment!<\/p>\n

My relationship with Mother Nature is\u2026<\/strong>
\nI love the outdoors. I grew up in a very rural area and spent a lot of time hiking in the woods, playing in streams, and riding bikes up very steep hills. I love animals and have very strong feelings on how humans use them. I think that a lot of people are beginning to open their eyes to the truths of this as well as how we treat the environment \u2013 and that\u2019s a great thing.<\/p>\n

If I won the lottery, I\u2019d\u2026<\/strong>
\nOpen a massive animal sanctuary! Also, buy a bunch soft-serve ice cream machines and open a fully vegan\/non-dairy mini version of something like 16 Handles<\/a>.<\/p>\n

My style is\u2026<\/strong>
\nMmmm, I don\u2019t know. I\u2019m pretty simple and just want to be comfortable and boring. Whenever I buy something that\u2019s not basic, I end up having no clue how to wear it and it just sits in my closet. I wish I could pull more things off!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
