Happy Monday everyone. How is 2010 treating everyone so far?? Can’t complain here. I’ve had the last two glorious weeks off from work, but now it’s back to reality. I’m really looking forward to seeing the students again. I feel like it’s been ages since I last stepped foot in that school. On another note, the highlight of my entire winter break happened Saturday night when a lady at the karaoke bar told me I had a rockin’ body. I was like, “Who? Me??” That doesn’t change the fact that I need to lose about 5 lbs. (if not 10) before bathing suit season.
I can’t believe I’ve been putting this off for so long. Right after Thanksgiving Dorothy from FuzzyKoala’s Caketastic Adventures awarded me the Kreativ Blogger Award. This is my first award and I’m so excited! My sincerest apologies, Dorothy, for taking so long to post this. It really meant a lot that you would consider me for the award. The rules of the award are to post seven facts about yourself, then nominate seven other bloggers you feel are “Kreativ Bloggers.” Here goes:
1. I am an only child. My husband is also an only child. Isn’t it weird that our kids won’t have Aunts or Uncles??
2. I love to sing karaoke (lately I’ve been going about once per week!) but I’m not very good at it.
3. Despite living in the South (where it goes on everything), I hate mayonnaise. I really think it’s the most disgusting thing EVER created. My mom swears I can’t be her daughter since I won’t touch the stuff.
4. I got my degree from the University of Florida in Advertising, but had a change of heart post-graduation and am now becoming a teacher. I’m an aide for Pre-K this year while I work on my certification, and hopefully I’ll have my own class next fall! Teaching young people is the most rewarding career I can possibly think of.
5. I am a big theatre dork. I grew up performing in plays and musicals and even competed in Thespian festivals in middle and high school. I cried when I finally saw Wicked on Broadway.
6. I never cooked a thing until my junior year of college. Growing up I hated cooking and thought I’d have to hire a personal chef when I “grew up.” Look at me now!
7. I absolutely adore Carrie Underwood. I think she is a beautifully talented woman with such grace and class. I would die to meet her!
Here are the seven bloggers I’m passing on the award to. These are but a few of my favorites. I love keeping up with each of you and drooling over your delicious creations!
1. Jessica of How Sweet It Is
2. Meghann of The Inner Workings of a College Graduate
3. Jessica at The Novice Chef
4. Kevin at Closet Cooking
5. Lindsay at Cookin’ Lean Like Paula Deen
6. Kim of Stirring the Pot
7. Elizabeth of Musings of the Waspy Redhead
