Awkward, awkward....

That's what this feels like, the starting of a blog. Just awkward. Where do I start, what do I say first? Like I'm standing in a room of complete strangers, starting a new job. "Let's go around the room and introduce ourselves, tell us one thing that is interesting about you!!!", says the way over enthusiastic instructor. But what if I can't think of anything interesting? So let's just start with the basics: I'm Amanda, I'm 29, I've been married for 10 years, we have a 2 year old son, and I'm the owner of BleuRoo Handcrafted Sweetness. There is so much more, of course. I actually had a whole introductory post written out, ready to go. But at the last minute I scratched it, I didn't like the feel of it. Soooo, here I am, standing in front of all the strangers, with nothing to say. Except, thanks for checking in. I hope you come back often. I plan to use this space for a bit of both personal and business use. My goal is to post at least once a day. I wanna do some giveaways, post things that amuse me, maybe rant a time or two. Who knows? Okay, I'm boring myself now. There it is, the introduction. I promise the posts will only go uphill from here. I mean, really, how can they go any lower?
Wait, don't answer that....

(I apologize, this is where my mind is at right now. In a lounge chair, on the beach, with a good book and good drink, and no where to be for the foreseeable future. BTW, I took this picture of the beach that is located only like 40 minutes from my house. So close, yet sooooo far away.....)
