Today I’m participating in Friend Makin’ Mondays, hosted by Amber at {aefilkins}. Today’s topic:
What are your hobbies? What do you wish you knew how to do?
Let’s start with my hobbies, shall we?
I love to read. The oh-so-generous husband bought my a Kindle for my birthday, and I’m just devouring whatever books I can get my hands on. I average about 5 books a week.
I also love to cook. I wish I had more time to cook and bake but I guess my waistline is better off only enjoying oreo truffles once per year.
I love crafting! I also love obnoxiously big flowers in my hair, by the way. Tutorial coming later this week!
I love to play dress up with my chihuahuas. Do they like it? Not so much, but it brings me and the husband great joy.
What do I wish I knew how to do?
Sew! I’ve actually signed up for a 6 week class at Hancock Fabrics that starts in two weeks. I’ll let you know how it goes!
I have secret aspirations of becoming a makeup artist, and I wish I had more practice and experience at applying makeup to other people.
I wish I knew how to knit! I’d love to be able to make blankets and scarves.
How about you – what are your hobbies? What do you wish you knew how to do?

Love your cute dogs, can't wait to see your tutorial. Happy Monday!
oreo truffles... DROOL
The Buzz, Brandy
nice meeting you!
that is the cutest chihuahua picture!
You and I are a lot alike. I love to bake, cook, read, and blog (of course). I knit like it's going out of style and just finished a quilt that a friend bribed me to do for her. :-)
You're going to laugh at me... but I'm contemplating getting my canine massage certification!
I can't wait to see the flower tutorial! :)
I wish I could read 5 books a week! I love to read but don't pack nearly as much away as I'd like. I wish I could paint & draw! Maybe one day I will take a class, but I'm worried I'll be the only talentless one in the room. lol!
I'd also love to be able to dance. In the privacy of my bedroom, I think I am not *that* bad, until I accompanied a girlfriend to her hip hop class. That's where I learned I have zero coordination and even less memory for dance steps.
I so want that kindle!!!
I love the flower in your hair. I hope you are feeling great. I love to blog, read, and garden. I wish I could sew also and cook great meals.
I love your little doggies...and seeing what you dress them up in! And oreo truffles...wow, I could handle those right about now!
Hope you're feeling good!
Hugz,

I'd love to learn how to knit too. Come to think about it my Mom knows how, but has never taught me, wait maybe that is crocheting. Hmmm, I have a lot I want to learn to do, I better get busy!:-) How are you feeling?
5 books a week!? Go You!! I need one of those Kindles. I would so read more. And those oreo truffles look so yummy!! Happy FMM and thanks for stopping by!!
Looks like a great list!! I wish I had a kindle. Do you think you read faster with it?
i LOVE those oreo balls. My bible study leaders make them for us sometimes...DELISH
Oreo truffles...dude, I haven't made those in years! But now you're making me want to!!! So nice to "meet" you - can't wait to hear how your sewing class goes!
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I hope that you'll enjoy sewing-it's so great to be able to create things! And easier than I think most people think. Enjoy!!
You average 5 books per WEEK!? I don't even average 5 books per YEAR. lol.
And I do love the obnoxious flowers in your hair. :)
5 a WEEK?!!? Please tell me that was a typo? Soak it all up girl because after Cooper arrives you'll spend your "free time" napping!
Oh, I wish I knew how to sew too. I've tried and it's so hard.
You are SO talented. You always have the best crafts and cooking ideas!
I wish I could read 5 paragraphs a week, let alone 5 books!! Enjoy it now ;)
I knit, try to crochet and cross stitch... but I'm soo off and on with it that I haven't finished a project in a while.
*drooling over your Kindle*
OMG, oreo truffles sound heavenly!!!
I love crafting too and totally wish I could pull off a big flower in my hair like that. Adorable!
hey girl! thanks for stopping by my blog! i also wish i knew how to sew! I'm asking my hubby for a sewing machine for christmas this year! I'm crossing my fingers that i'll get it!
Awww SO glad you're back!!!
Totally love your blog! I love to shop at Target, JcPenny's, Online, HSN, Macy's, and the list could go on and on!!!
Glad you are blogging girl. It was almost like there was this loud silence without you here. I too widh I could sew because I love fashion so much. Hobbies : I used to bead but I guess my biggest hobby now is blogging and I also like to document my travels via my blog. I love french so I try to keep that up. Anywho, hope you are having a fab monday. :)
oh yeah!! can't wait for the tutorial I LOVE headbands and hair accesories.
That is so great that you are going to take a sewing class. I need to find one of those around here!
Those oreo truffles look so good! I have heard so many blogers say that they wished they could knit - it's too bad we couldn't start a ladies knitting group.
have a great week!
XOXO

I would love to learn to knit, but so far I haven't had the patience:)
I love your blog, especially the name:)
Oh I really wish I could sew too!!
Thanks for stopping by my blog to say hi!!

Thanks for visiting my blog! I love BIG flowers in my hair too and am also a make-up artist. Am so glad to have connected with you and will be visiting often - your blog is awesome! Miki
LOVE your blog. Seriously. & Love your list~ you can practice putting makeup on me whenever you want! {One little problem~ I live in TX. :(} I can't wait to see how your sewing class goes. Sounds like fun! I'll be a Follower :)
You should try makeup. It never really appealed to me to do other's makeup, but my girls love it. I have done makeup a few times for other models for photos & it's surprisingly easy.
You should SO take up knitting! I have a web show on MomTV where I teach knitting! Knitting is so relaxing.. I LOVE it. I wish I could sew.. I actually sewed my sleeve to a project once. Oh well.. I also wish I could do makeup like you can.. I'm all thumbs. :)
