Sarah at Honey, Sugah, Dahlin' was kind enough to give me the Versatile Blogger Award. (Thanks, Sarah!) We've never met, but I feel like we'd be friends since she is also a Georgia Southern Alum. GO EAGLES!The rules are:
1) Thank the blogger who presented me with this award…done!
2) Share 7 things about myself.
3) Pass on the award to 10 bloggers I have recently discovered and love!
So here we go! Seven random things you might (or might not) want to know…
Here are my seven things:
- I (like Sarah) have a ridiculous amount of cookbooks. I do cook a lot, but I should probably make myself some kind of deal that I won't buy another cookbook until I've tried 50 new recipes or something like that. Maybe that should be my challenge for the summer.
- I collect carnival glass. My friend Andy probably thinks it's a little bit old lady-ish of me, but that's fine. I like it because each piece is a little bit unique and it reminds me of my Granny Grits (my great grandmother).
- One of my favorite places in the world is St. Augustine. My husband took me there to celebrate our first year of dating and we've been back many times since. It's so laidback, you can walk practically everywhere, there are great outlets and the drinks are cheap!
- I love photography and hope that one day I'll have the opportunity to turn it into an occupation instead of just a semi-part time occupation.
- I'd love to live at or near the beach at some point in my life. Maybe even just for a summer...seems like you'd almost have to be in a good mood if you lived close enough to the ocean, right?
- I am a proud Southerner, but if I had to choose any other culture to be a part of, it would be Italian. I love Italian food and could eat it 24/7 and the people seem like they really enjoy life. Plus, how pretty is Italy in the movies? I hope I get to visit one day!
- I am obsessed with being frugal. I subscribe to 'frugal' blogs, print coupons, clip coupons and I'm always on the lookout for a deal. I rarely pay full price for groceries, clothes and a lot of other things. I love to save $$$!
And here's who my recent favorite bloggers are:
Katie at Tale of a G.R.I.T.S.
Amanda at I Love You Days
Leslie at lmstoehr
Mrs. M at My Life as Mrs. M.
Lori at Baby Hennesy
Carolina Girl at Ramblings of a 30 Something Year Old Carolina Girl
Thanks for mentioning me and my little ol' blog! Collecting carnival glass may be old lady-ish, but isn't old lady the new 20-something? And as for frugal blogs, the hubs follows (and loves) Get Rich Slowly. He talks about the guy like he's an old family friend.

....that one. It's my grandfather when he was stationed in Hawaii during WWII. And you can be a "fan" of that picture on facebook. How ridiculous is that?!
Do you subscribe to the Frugal Girl? I heard about a lot of good deals from her.
ReplyDeleteI live very near the beach and should go more often!
