The Spunky Diva received a blog award from Jake and Alison at Welcome Sunshine Home! Thanks guys!

Seven things about me: (some of these you will already know)
1. I am mom to one plus one on the way, and also have a wonderful stepson.
2. I can't cook. Hence you will most likely never see a cooking post on this blog. If you do (and it isn't a guest post) you will know that it is an idiot proff receipe.
3. I love creating with fabrics. There is just so many options when you bring home a new group of fabrics home.
4. Tying into No. 3 - I am a fabric-a-holic!
5. I love living in Central Texas. I am all about the heat and dry after growing up in the Pacific Northwest.
6. I recently discovered 2% Egg Nog, and seem to have developed an addiction to the stuff.
