MamaKat’s Writers Workshop: The Top 5 Random Bits of Trivia about The Princess Bloggers’ Family…

5.  My husband and I met Eddie Van Halen and Valerie Bertinelli…at a club…while they were still married.  I know, that’s probably not a big deal to most people.  But as a former resident of the state of California, I hold on to this moment.  You see, we live in rural East Texas now.  We don’t meet famous people here.  Thankfully, I have my memories.  As a side note, my husband offended Mr. Van Halen (that’s another story) and was promptly given the bird (flipped off).

4.  My husband’s favorite food is a sloppy joe.  No joke.  You could sit him down at a table filled with filet mignon, lobster, pizza, and he’d still choose a sloppy joe.  I make this disgusting concoction once a year.  And it’s all for him!

3.  I hate to shop.  Really.  I’m an embarrassment to my gender.

2.  We are not a “football family.”  We are not “football fans.”  Yes, we live in Texas.  Snubbing football is basically like burning the flag to most Texans.  Football season is a very lonely time for us!  Ha!

1.  We are in the process of applying for domestic adoption (of an older child, pre-teen or teenager)!  This is the least random piece of information on us! I have a feeling that this child will be a sloppy-joe-loving, shopaholic cheerleader.  And I can’t wait!

About The Princess Blogger

I'm a forty-something year old working mother of one adult son who hopes to adopt more children! I am married to a man who is too hip for his own good. I work...alot. We live in beautiful East Texas. No tumbleweeds here, unless you've imported them from West Texas. No, just the tall piney woods. Love this place.

    The Eddie Van Halen/Valerie Bertinelli one is awesome – guess I’m showing my age by saying that! Also not a shopper and we are definitely not a football family. Lots in common! All the best as you move forward on your adoption process! A subject near and dear to us on both sides of the family.

    Fun list. Being the same age as Valerie Bertinelli, I can appreciate #1. I remember feeling like the Ugly Duckling watching her adorable-ness on TV! I do love a good sloppy joe, would never shop again if I could find a way out, am bored to tears by football and wish you tremendous good wishes on the adoption!

    #1 is awesome and Eddie flipping the bird, so him! I wish you luck with the adoption process.
