First off, guess who I met yesterday?
Here’s a picture with my crappy cell phone (because, of course, I forgot my camera … wasn’t on the list). I met Rachel from Musings of a Future Pastor’s Wife yesterday and she’s cute as a button. (Why a button? Is a button really that cute?) Well, she’s as cute as cute can be. How’s that? Dang, I look old.

I went to market in New Orleans and walked around with her for about an hour. Rachel, next time it will be longer. (Shhh … we’re planning a LA get-together, kinda like a day trip, nothin’ crazy. You LA bloggers hollaback.)
But, guess what else? 
I bought my “Dare to Wear” item. She bought an identical one in another color and I can’t wait to show you all. I’m excited and scared at the same time to put them on.
Now, I got a few awards I need to mention.
This one from Fringegirl at The Domestic Fringe, a new blog I’ve been reading and love, love, love. Well, you know why I got it, right? ‘Cause I’m so “Kreativ,” with a “K,” not a “C,” and not spelled “Creative,” because that would not be a kreativ way of spelling kreativ. That’s how I roll. I’m big on misspelling words to get my point across. (FYI: I’m actually the church proofer, which I didn’t want to tell you because then, if I made a mistake or misspelled a word, you would think I stunk at grammar and spelling. Anyway, this is my place to be free from that, so don’t judge.)
Thanks, Fringegirl! Go by and check out her own kreativ blog.

Then, I got this one for the second time from Aspiemom from Then I Am Strong, another new blog I’ve been reading written by a sweet, sweet lady (notice the two sweets … means super sweet). Thanks for this sweet (another sweet) award. Ya’ll go by and say “Hey.”
