My sweet Lindsay nominated me and my blog for an award and here are the rules:

I have to write 10 interesting things about me and nominate 10 other bloggers.

10 interesting things about me:
1. I am married to a great, sweet, sometimes stylish (ha,ha) man.
2. I have 3 wonderful boys that are all boy all the time:)
3. I own my own business: Hissyfits Boutique
4. I have great employees that I call "My Girls" which causes confusion with people. They then think Scott and I have daughters.
5. I am a military daughter (Army) and have travelled the world. So, therefore, I have friends worldwide:)))
6. I am crafty and used to make my boys clothes (smocking and so on), quilt, paint, make hair bows, flip flops, and even do pottery.

8. I am a certified teacher K thru 6th grade.
9. I am a raptor rehabilitator and can also rehab small mammals and birds.
10. I own, or should I say my boys own, a snake. Santa brought us a Western Hognose from the Everglades Herp Farm. He actually arrived via UPS!!! LOL His name is Hoggie and came to keep the boys from catching wild snakes. WARNING: THIS METHOD DOES NOT WORK!!! A-man is on his 10th wild snake.

I nominate:
This will have to come later after I figure out how to write their blogs and names:)

Cooking! You won't beleive it!!!

Scott's dinner.
My dinner. Scott ran to town to get this for me to
help with my sinus headache.

Scott cooking with me for him and the boys.


Sitting around talking and having a moment to enjoy is rare.

Ok, can you believe I cooked? This is what I made.
Scott and I loved them but the boys think they
were BAD!
Love my measuring techniques? I do NOT cook much. LOL

Here's the dough.

Here's the icing.

The first time I used my baking stone from pampered chef.
I bought it in October!@!

Finished cookies:)










Maggie with our newest creation.
It is a chalk board wreath which you can hang on your door and
is great for leaving notes to your family and friends.
We will be making a lot of these for college students
and can change out the bows to fit your needs.
We have had a lot of great ideas from our customers for future door hangers!!!
Thank you for your support.
A family that needed extra income has offered to make
this task easier:)
Ribbon candy I bought for the girls to try at the store.

Here is Lindsay trying her first ever piece
of ribbon candy!! Jennifer had never tried it either.
I think only one of my 6 employees has had ribbon candy!!
Ok, I admit, I had never had any before yesterday either.
I think it's because of the price!!!!

Claire thinking we are CRAZY for making over ribbon candy while ringing up a customer.



Cassie and Maggie posing.
