We are SO excited to have received this amazing award from Crafty Like Lindy

So here we go...7 things about Amanda:

1. The hotter the better! 
Food that is...I cant get enough of spicy & hot foods. 
Our garden this past year consisted solely of hot peppers and they made the best hot sauce, rubs and salsa I've ever had!

2. I am 23, have been married for 4 years and have a nearly 3 year old. 
People think I'm crazy & too young to have a family but, I wouldn't change one. single. thing.

3. There is nothing more therapeutic to me than painting the walls in our home. 
I love the change and seeing the finished product.

4. I don't have a runners body...my legs are really short but,
I love to go for a nice run and the occasional race.

5. I am super competitive. 
Which can be a curse because I take everything personally and obviously cant win at everything.

6. My favorite food is cheese...and I'm lactose intolerant:/

7. I love to make crafts as easy as possible...I'm all about the glue gun and tape!

  1. Thank You! Super sweet of you guys!! The hotter the better for me too - in that case if you make my jalapeno popper dip I suggest doubling the jalapenos (i'll be doing that next time;)
