New Project: Try-It Tuesdays!

Hello long lost friends, Oh boy I'm going to cut straight to the chase today because I'm so excited about this... Nicole and I have decided to take on a new project with you all: Try-it Tuesdays. So some of you may recall the good ol' girl scout "brownie" days where young girls are given patches called "try-its" for well, trying! The patches weren't based on ability or skill, or even knowledge, they simply meant: you tried something new, and that's freaking awesome! And although were not touting that you go out and buy a zillion boxes of girl scout cookies (ok, we are.), we do think that you should still receive recognition for trying new things. So, whats the big deal, you ask? Ill tell you!

Every Tuesday we will come up with a new project for you...Some projects will ask you to make something (and show us, duh!), some will ask you to tell us something, to meet someone, to do something outside, simple enough, right?? Well for your participation, we vow to send you a little something special as our way of saying "Hey, you rock for tryin it!" Oh yeah, you can bet Nicole and I will be participating too!

So here it is, your first try-it Tuesday: Make a list of 5 things you enjoy about yourself.

Simple enough, right? Just post a comment with your list of lovely quirks and misshapen bones, and viola! Send us your address at TableB5blog@gmail.com, (seriously, we wouldn't have anyone to give it away to, so don't worry.) and be proud of yourself! Alright, yada yada... Here is my dosage of ego-stroking self-love:

Five Things I Love About Myself. by Rachel Stahl
1. I Like that the hair around my ears curls just so. I got it from my mama!
2. I cannot hold a grudge. Seriously, I cave. Butter, if you will.
3. I make it a point to hold doors open and talk to the mailman every day.
4. I really am clumsy, and I have amazing scars to prove it. Ask me to show you!

5. I love that I value my alone time, and I can respect when others need to be left alone too.
