An Award? Seriously?

I was reading my comments on Sunday, and what do I find awaiting me in my email but an award from cute-as-a-bug Brandy over at Life of Perks! Well, that just made my day!

I need to start hanging these somewhere...

Anyway, Brandy is brand spanking new to the blogosphere, but obviously not to crafting. She's got some great ideas to steal inspire you, so definitely take a few minutes and check her out.

Now, as always, there are rules involved in accepting an award, and they are:

1. Thank and link back to the person that gave you the award.

2. Share 7 things about yourself.

3. Pass the award to at least 4 fellow bloggers who inspire you.

4. Let them know about the award.

Brandy, thank you for wandering into my insanity and looking past all the weirdness. I'm not sure what's left after you strain that out, but I'm flattered that you appreciate it, and it gave me an opportunity to discover you as well.

Seven things, eh? I'm not sure what I haven't told you that won't freak you out...

1. I lived on an island off the coast of North Carolina through high school, and I could actually surf. Past tense. So past tense.

2. I have the world's ugliest toes. I'm not even kidding.

3. My favorite animal is the wombat. I have not been allowed to have one up to this point, however.

4. My husband says I treat men like garbage. In my defense, he seems to like it.

5. We were married in a Buddhist ceremony performed by my female yoga instructor and favorite psych professor, who was a notary public.

6. I did my own wedding for 150 people with full buffet, bar, dress, and flowers for under $2000.

7. My husband and all of our groomsmen wore Chuck Taylor Converse high top sneakers in different colors with bow ties to match their sneaks. It's kind of Sam's trademark.

 (My Child Groom is the hottie in the center sporting a princely mullet in a tail. Hey, it was 1990. Bonus tidbit: he owned that tux, and our oldest just wore the jacket to prom.)

But enough about me.

My 4 choices to pass this onto are:

Audra, at Simpsonized Crafts and Then Some

Yanet, at 3 Sun Kissed Boys

Marty, at A Stroll Through Life

Robyn, at Create Something Pretty
