I’ve been tagged by East Side Bride to tell four things about my husband – amusingly labeled “Mr. Nibs.”
1. Mr. Nibs loves to hike and often takes our son out for weekend adventures in upstate New York.
2. Mr. Nibs loves to read. His favorite authors include Dorothy L. Sayers, C.S. Lewis, Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, Walter R. Brooks and sometimes Fyodor Dostoyevsky.
3. Mr. Nibs gutted, framed, wired, insulated, sheetrocked, and trimmed our hundred year old house. His favorite complement was “it doesn’t look like you did anything.”
4. Mr. Nibs plays acoustic rhythm guitar and sings.

My husband reads, and plays guitar… hiking and renovating are NOT his forte however. Sounds like you lucked out!

I work with Mr. Nibs at school and he told me about your Twiggy paper dolls—FAB-U-LOUS!

Mr. Nibs looks as nice as my husband—who would also do anything to make my “nest” just right.
