Flattered!

When I first thought about blogging, two of my friends told me I needed to look at The Poe Fam site.  I was instantly in love and blown away with Brittney’s site!  She is an amazing mom, and SO STINKIN’ CREATIVE!  She is a blessing to her family and a blessing to anyone who reads her blog!

.

Sooooo, I was so very flattered when she awarded me with the “Stylish Blogger Award!”  I’m still trying to figure out what I’m doing on the ole’ world wide web, and I’m in the middle of a complete overhaul on my site, but I completely appreciate her kindness!  Thank you, Brittney!!!

Upon receiving this award, I am supposed to:

1) Thank and link back to the person that awarded it.

2) Share 7 things about myself.

3) Award 10 great bloggers.

4) Contact these bloggers and tell them about the award.

.

I decided this could be fun…

.

So here are 7 things you always wanted to know about me.

1. I was born in Greenville, Mississippi and I loved spending my summers there as a child/teenager.

2. I am 25% Italian, 25% Lebanese, 100% Southern!  I love homemade Italian spaghetti sauce, eggplant parmesan, and cannoli.  I love Lebanese stuffed grape leaves, kibbee, and tabouli.  I love Southern style grits, chicken fried steak, and fried okra!  I just like FOOD!

3. I don’t use calendars…it’s a problem!  I’ve missed or messed up many a birthday party! (SERIOUSLY…as I was typing this I got a text from my friend Elicia that said, “Where are you?  I’m going to eat your piece of cake!”  I MISSED ANOTHER BIRTHDAY PARTY TODAY!!!  i truly can’t believe the irony of receiving this text as i was typing that!!!

4. I live less than a mile from my parents…less that half a mile from my in-laws.  Wouldn’t trade it for the world!

5. I’m a MESS!  A serious mess!  I like having a clean house…I just can’t seem to get it there.  Keeping house is NOT my strength!

6. In 5th grade I had a bike wreck, and I had a scab on my elbow.  This crazy boy sat next to me and he used to draw on the scab.

7. I married him!
