It My SITS Day and I'll Squeal with Delight If I Want To!

Wooo-whooo! W-E-L-C-O-M-E!
It is my SITS day and I feel fancy!
If only I had a tiara...see I always wanted one...
I wanted to be a pageant queen...of course,
I also wanted to be a cowgirl...
maybe I really wanted to be Dolly Parton?
Maybe Heather and Tiffany at SITS knew it was my birthday
weekend and wanted to give me a a very cool present!
And, oh yeah, check out what I got for my b'day....
a ticket to Bloggy Bootcamp in SF...who's going???
Whatever the case, 504 Main is my home away from home.
Makeup, mochas, and "I Love you Mama"
keep me sane and motivated!
I am a not-so-domestic diva, turned full-on domestic diva
...and I LOVE it...mostly.
{Read more about it here}
I cook, create, and attempt to entertain.
Of course a little bribery...
a steaming hot mocha with homemade
whip cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon,
or a perfectly chilled sparkling wine
and some brie...
usually keep the guests here longer.

Here's a small sampling of what's happening at my place!
** I LOVE to be creative {Monday is usually DIY Day, but don't quote me on that, I have an issue with schedules}. I L-O-V-E all of my creations, but the Birthday Chandelier I made for hubby's big b'day is to-die-for!

** I was a wedding planner in Los Angeles and had a few brushes with reality show {semi} fame, read all about it in How to Make a Beautiful Bride Ugly.

** I cook! BUT I love to bake! Have you tried Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies yet?

**I am forever rethinking my list of must haves.
 {sorry, I know that is 4! but I never know when to stop...it is genetic!}

Oh yeah, one...no two...final tidbits
{I promise I'm done!!!...See, I told you I never know when to stop...you were warned!}
** If you want to read a hot topic...check out the discussion on Blogiquette
**Come back every Friday to see who/what/where in blog land and beyond has Tickled Me Pink. 

I just want to end with a BIG thank you to the The SITS Girls!  When I started my blog {OK, I actually have two blogs...anyone engaged or getting hitched?..check out HipWeddings}. I had no idea what I was doing. I was tech savvy enough to manage my way through blogger set up...and even get a fancy background going on {which has been changed numerous times}. Then, I kept seeing this button...
I got up the courage..."OK, I can click on it, the computer won't explode." I did and guess what I found a community of bloggers who made comments {that was still foreign territory for me}. It gave me courage to go forth and comment and I did...and I got followers....and I started to have fun. All leading up to this day...my day as SITS featured blogger. 

THANKS everyone for coming by...I will be by to visit or respond to you all {you did read Blogiquette, right?}! Follow along if you like what you see and be sure to let me know!

  29. Happy SITS day! I'm loving your blog... mostly because most of my childhood dreams centered around headgear based professions (firefighter, Queen, etc.) and I am a BIG fan of brie :-)

    When I quit dieting my love of brie (and the total insufficiency of fat free slices of American cheese) were a big factor (No, I'm not a giant cheese wheel shaped homebound 2-Ton-Tessie - I lost 80 pounds eating brie) :-)
