Some Gratitiude


I really wanted to participate in Tessa's awesome Attitude of Gratitude!
Basically, everyday you post about something you're thankful for.

Easy peasy and makes you feel cheesy ;)

See?  Cheesy already!

Well, I missed yesterday, so I'll have two things today!

Firstly, I'm thankful for having a job.
I know MANY people unemployed right now and I pray for those going through difficult times.

Years ago when Hubby and I started a family I was in Nursing School and we found ourselves without any income for our family because he'd lost his job.  It was so stressful, especially since we were just starting out in life.  But, we were reminded of how strong and important family is.  They were ALWAYS there and they told us not to worry.  In time...though a very stressful time....we got back on our feet.

Second, I'm thankful for my wonderful Scrappy friends!  Thank you so much for taking time out of your life to visit my blog.  It touches my heart everytime I see a comment from you all!  I've learned so much from each and everyone of you.
I love you all!

Muah,
Mo

Me? A snob?????

Hello All!

For those of you taking part in the All About Me Blog Hop, you probably came from
Wendy's blog.
But if you are starting here, be sure to check out the AAM blog for the start of the hop!  I'm SURE you'll find loads of inspiration!  The girls, I'm sure have been hard at work!
Our theme for the hop is Royalty!  Grab your tiaras and hop along ladies!  We all deserve to be Queen for a Day!


Sometimes associated with Royalty is snobbishness.  Are you a snob?  Think real hard, you just may be...about something!  Are there things you're particular about?  Let's have fun with being a snob...it doesn't have to be negative....we're all human, we can't be perfect...so air out your dirty little secret!

So, as sweet-natured (wink wink) as I am, I really can be snobby about certain things.....like refusing to eat foods that are messy....chicken wings, crab, unpeeled shrimp, anything sticky....ew!  My mouth might even be watering to taste a wonderfully amazing dish...but I'll stand my ground and keep my hands clean!

(Whispered secret)....sometimes my Mom or my Hubby will crack my crab legs or peel my shrimp for me (he he)!  And I'm soooooo super happy when they offer!  Yum!  Great food with out the mess...or effort!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, that's not what I scrapped about because I don' t have any photos of that stuff...soooooo...

for the newest AAM Challenge.....I'm a SNOB......

I scrapped about how snobby I am about eating Filipino Food.  My Mom's cooking is THE BEST!  I usually don't eat other people's food at family parties I go to.  Other than Mom's food, I eat my Aunt J's food, one of my besties (Sherry's Mom's food...cooks some dishes almost EXACTLY like my Moms'), um...and only a handfull of other people's cooking.  Mind you, this only applies to Filipino Food (I don't know why, I'm just weird like that)!

Aaaaah....Mom's food is the awesomest & bestest thing in the world!  I've missed it sooooo much now that I'm all grown up with a family and house of my own....boo hoo!!

Yum!

Now...there's a prize!  To be eligible, you must comment on all the DT blogs on the hop, so be sure to start at the AAM blog to get them all!
Sponsor prizes consist of product from our sponsor this month....Digi-Doodle!  There will also be a $10 gift certificate to Two Peas from Melissa (AAM admin/mastermind) who will I'll also be giving away a class called "Scrapbooking with Symbolism"....and this is truly an amazing class...you've got to check out her blog (AAM blog hop starting point)!

AND for another chance to win a prize.....submit your layout to All About Me using this "SNOB" challenge!

Next stop is Fabi's blog!  She what fun she's created for you!

Hugs,
Mo
