You Sexy Thing

My friend Linda has presented me with the Sexy Blogger Award. I am honored. I don't usually get awards. So this is all very exciting.

The way to accept the award is to write 5 things about myself that are "sexy". I don't usually put me and sexy in the same sentence so it was very hard to think of what is sexy about me. I have thought for a while and I think that I have come up with some things that are very sexy indeed.

#1. I'm an Animal Lover. I truly and deeply care about their well being and do all I can to help them. I do charity walks, I donate to the ASPCA. I even brush them at the zoo so the can look as pretty as can be. Even goats need a stylist.

#2 I'm thrifty. My husband and I love to go out. But its far too expensive. So we have what I like to call "club Matty and Bananas". This is our very own version of going out to a hip and trendy bar but we stay home. It all takes place in our kitchen and living room. We plug in our twinkle lights, light some candles,put on some cool music and drink home made cocktails. What is so great about club Matty and Bananas? Well for starters, it's named after me,there is never a cover charge, there's no wait for a seat at the bar,there's always plenty of parking and the drinks are free! Matty makes the best dirty-vodka martini ever!

#3 I love to cook. I'm really good at it. I can make anything from pies (from scratch of course) to a thanksgiving turkey. I read recipes from gourmet magazine, bon apatite and food network.com. But I never follow the recipe exactly. I like to add my own touch to it. I usually find that when I put my own spin on something it's much better. Here I am a while back making a beef stew that called for beef stalk broth as it's base but I used a just little stalk and a Guinness beer instead. It was tasty.

#4. I'm goofy. I have no fears of beings silly or of what people might think of me if I am caught acting like a total spaz. It's fun and freeing to do "The Robot" at a party, to sing as loudly as I want when I'm driving in my car and to pretend I am chugging syrup in an homage to 'Elf" while shopping for groceries. I embrace my inner silly. And it feels good!
#5. I'm Crafty. I have been making jewelry for myself for a few years. I was inspired to do so because grew tired of seeing these beautiful pieces in magazines and at boutiques for insane amounts of money. I once saw a necklace in a store that was $85 dollars. I went to a bead store and made it myself for $10. The necklace bellow is my own creation. I think it cost me about $5 to make it. I like it. It's one of the nicer ones I have made in my collection.

Well there you have it. My sexy list. I would like to pass this award onto some fellow bloggers that I think are very deserving of this award. They are in no particular order...

NGS. She goes running. In the MORNING! If that's not deserving of an award I don't know what is.
