(in other words, a slight delay does not diminish the gratitude)
Just wanted to take a quick minute to thank Jenn and Kelly for thinking of me and my little blog experiment when they were handing out Stylish Blogger Awards a few weeks back. Look, there’s even a sparkly button:
Ooh la la. Makes me want to put on my red suede heels and get down to blogging. (or maybe the navy blue stilettos? Or the teal satin heels with the bows in the back? Ok, I digress…)

And it’s also about not wanting to get home after 8 hours in front of the computer and plop down in front of the computer every night. Just some nights. So bear with me.

If you are new around here, or want to finally make that commitment, you can subscribe by email or Google Reader via the sidebar. I’m also toying a bit with Blog Catalog and Blog Lovin’ – two other ways to follow along. And since we’re feeling all fancy around here, I’ll even include the fashionista Blog Lovin’ button here too:
OK, time to head on out of here. I have pork crockpot simmering in root beer at my house! Will let you know how weird/scrumptious/awful/amazing it turns out!
I like writing, photography, reading, music, design, typography, paper products, days in the seventies and sparkly snow, Spanish wine and cans of PBR. I spent a year in Córdoba, Spain, working as a
