Better Late Than Never

I also owe Ebony over at Sizzling Publications a very belated thank you for giving me the Gorgeous Blogger award!

I have to give five facts about myself so here we are:
1. I really want a puppy.
2. I'm home for winter break and lovin' in.
3. I love chai tea and my awesome boyfriend helped me figure out how to make it just like Starbucks does!
4. I love having enough time for blogging and having a break from "real life."
5. I love lists and am therefore addicted to this blog.
Thanks again, Ebony!

Happy Sunday, lovelies.

My First Blog Award!

I am very excited to share that I got my first blog award thanks to Ebony over at Sizzling Publications! So now I have to follow all the instructions and pass it along!





1. “The Honest Scrap” award is not one to hold all to your self but it must be shared!

2. First, the recipient has to tell 10 true things about themselves in their blog that no one else knows.

3. Second, the recipient has to pass along this prestigious award to 10 more bloggers.

4. Third, those 10 bloggers all have to be notified they have been given with this award.

5. Those 10 bloggers that receive this award should link back to the blog that awarded them “The Honest Scrap’ award.

Well, I don't think I even have 10 things to list that no one knows, but I will list 10 things about myself, so here goes...

1. I love avocados and I could eat them with nearly everything, or just by themselves.

2. I am in love with a wonderful man :)

3. I would like to live either at the beach, or in Colorado one day.

4. I love reading and I really wish I had more time to do it (right now I do since I'm off work! Yay!).

5. I really like adventures.

6. I really like Ikea.

7. I'm not very good at accessorizing, but I'm working on it.

7. I've kept a pen & paper journal since the 2nd grade.

8. I have a really high tolerance for physical pain (emotional, not so much...)

9. I'd like to have a ton of kids whenever I get married somedayyyy

10. I love my bed-related items like pillows, blankets, covers; anything comfy and wonderful.

I know this is lame, but I think that almost all the blogs I follow have already been awarded this, and most of them pretty recently, so I'm not going to be tagging anyone :(. I guess I'll have to go make some more blog friends :)
