So the strangest thing happened Friday night while I was leaving American Girl with my pack of 15 rock star little girls.
I walked out the door, and all these flashbulbs went off and there was all this shouting…”Hey, Stiletto Mom…over here! over here!” I was momentarily blinded and then I realized that probably those pictures that I took got out from that night that I drank all the Patron and met the sailors and then we…wait, this is just not the appropriate venue for this.
Anyway, once I remembered that I had burned the negatives from that night (weekend, whatever), I checked my blog and realized I had won two awards this week!
The first came from Tina over at Adventures of a Working Mom who gave me this on Tuesday.
My apologies to Tina for being so late in saying a very public Thank You. I started stalking Tina because every Monday she posts her weekly menu and she works full time like me. I like to look at it to remind myself I have such a long way to go. People, I have yet to see canned Spaghettios on her site once and it’s a staple in the Stiletto household. The rest of the week she has either fantastic recipes or great stories about her life. I really can’t allow The Man to read her blog though. First of all he’d be all like “Wait she works and still finds time to cook?” and then he’d go farther with, “Wait, she works and she still finds time to cook GERMAN FOOD???” I just can’t handle that kind of pressure. I’ll keep reading though, and trying out your recipes…I appreciate both the award the many great ideas I get from you during the week!
The next award came from my pal Steenky Bee. She and I seem to have developed this obsessive nature with eachother and I adore her. I’ll admit, I was the one who started all this nonsense. I saw her on another blog, clicked over….and well, it was love at first post. I just had to have her (stop it…thats not what I meant) and I just kept posting until she came to visit me in an attempt on her part to make it stop. Sometimes she embarasses herself and her husband . Also? I think her children are baby geniuses. A week or so ago, she tried to take a few days off to get caught up in the real world…all I can say is it was one of the darker periods in my life, I hope she never tries that again or I’m going to have to get on a plane and no one needs me invading their personal space. Steenky, you’ve been warned. Anybee, Jen was kind enough to share this little jem with me.
Once she gets her shit together and makes Steenky Bee tees, I will be the first to wear one and prance proudly through Times Square with it on along with a tiara and stilettos…well, and pants. Or maybe not. Wait, I’m going down the wrong path again.
I know I’m supposed to pass this on but I’m selfish and I don’t want to share. Just kidding, sorta. I am, however, on massive doses of some hideous drug designed to drain my sinuses before my face actually explodes, which could happen at any moment. The good news is, I’m walking around with a little 24 hour buzz. The bad news is I feel lucky to get an entire sentence on paper…it’s taken me the better part of two days to write this and it was an easy topic. Given that, and the very real fact I may make an ass out of myself (again) I’m going to pass this out a little later and hope the bloggy Gods don’t rain their wrath down upon me. Thanks again Tina and Jen…I adore both of you!

bravo! bravo…..I’m working on passing on mine, too. You’re OUT now that those ladies beat me to the punch. I mean award.
Congrats! I’m all over the Steenky Bee like a cheap acrylic blanket too, but I somehow think she enjoys it.
BTW, I’m at home full time and often feed my kids and husband cereal for dinner. Send your husband over to read my posts a few times and he will be so thankful for the effort you put in to those Spaghettios.
Awesome! Congratulations!
And now I have more people to stalk! In a totally non-scary, bloggy-love kind of way I mean…
Oh, girlfriend, please! You could never stalk me enough. You deserve everything you have coming to you. Well, the good stuff that is. Any bad stuff better stand in the way of my stank. Now excuse me while I go work out with my thigh master. If we’re to be prancing the streets pantsless then I need to do some serious toning. Brilliant post!
YAAAAAA Stilletto Mom! BTW, I ordered the MJ’s a half size too small.. I’m ass. Please don’t make me go back there tomorrow.
Hope the bday weekend was FABULOUS!!!!
Congratulations on being recognized AND for surviving the American Girl experience! Hope you’re feeling better soon!
Those awards are just the beginning. You are so clever, I am sure a stint as an Oprah guru is in your near future!
Hey Mary Anne,
How ya’ feelin’? I’m so sorry that your dealing with nasty sinuses. That’s so painful.
I’m back from the long weekend trip to my mother-in-laws and the wine is a flowin’. Holla!
Whew. I’m glad to be home.
I would like to try my best and be a ‘guest blogger’ in your world. But with all these awards you’re receiving I don’t know if I’m up to it!
Congratulations Mary Anne. You deserve those. (You can’t really post my video blog roll award, can you?) Yeah for you!
Let me know what it is you would like me to do and I’ll do it.
(OH! My mind is racing! ;-> )
Congrats on your award! You well deserve it. Now we just have to get you better so you can post again.
P.S. My sincerest wishes that your sinuses don’t explode.
Pass some of that hideous sinus medicine my way! I can actually HEAR the dripping inbetween my eyes down to my nose! I am blogging with one eye open and one closed: pirate blogging! But, I wanted to tell you congrats on the awards and recognitions! Well deserved.
You totally deserved the award, your blog makes me laugh each time I read it. Working mom’s have to stick together

Aside from that insurance coverage is also good value of the car, so the more costly it is, then higher a premium you pay.
