Better Homes & Gardens, July 2010
My Mother called me last night to tell me I have nice legs.
“Your Aunt Sarah and I were talking and we both agreed you should wear skirts more often.”
Thanks, Mom. They were discussing my two-page photo spread and interview in the July issue of Better Homes & Gardens, which is on newsstands.
My Mom also told me that my two 5-year-old nephews refused to accept that the beautiful gal on page 125 and 126 is me.
“Luc and Nico denied that was you,” she emailed me. “They said the pictures were not the same person because the outfits were different and that it wasn’t you because your hair isn’t that curly! What they will learn…”
Better Homes & Gardens, July 2010
My slightly older nephew, who is eight, realized the pictures were of me but wasn’t sure what to make of it.
“It’s just weird,” he told my Mom. “That’s not her hair. Her hair is black.”
HA!
Okay, I’m done tooting my own horn. Back to work on the Frugal Festival this Saturday.

I loved the photos and clothes but the shoes were a ittle expensive for trips to the grocery store and shool pickups. Smile.

Va-va-vooooooooooom!!! Sensational look, and love the flippy, curly hair… really softens your look… very becoming, and so stylish! Now if only it were that simple to maintain without all those people standing by to help… Congrats on yet another rung up the ladder to even greater success!

I hadn’t heard of your blog until reading the article – I’m glad I found a bit of time to sit down and catch up on my magazines today. Hope the article brings you continued success!
