we are so fancy!


while cruising Etsy.com I came across Miss Label's shop and was in love with the possibilities! You can order your custom labels or ribbon on their easy to use site at misslabel.com , the shipping was free and they arrived so fast!
(found that satin is hard to take pictures of with a flash, shiney!)

narcissist or small business owner.... you be the judge

so as a small business owner I spend a great amount of time getting the business seen as many places as possible; directories, websites, twitter, facebook, blah blah.... and hope that it's all good stuff that people are seeing, and trying to be wise with my few marketing dollars!

as a narcissist I check these places regularly to see if people are saying nice things about the business (ok so I may check to see if my name made the comment too.... hey I warned you, little narcissistic) , and make sure that people are able to find the nice things people are saying about me... I mean Trim Time. (No I haven't been drinking, it's been a long week)

anywhoo.... while I was fact checking tonight, I ran accross, a new review I hadn't seen before, it was left at yelp.com and written by Lincoln and Booth's mom (pic below, of them.... not their mom.... that would be weird if I just randomly had a picture of her- that would make me kinda stalkerish, besides if i WAS stalkerish i wouldn't tell you).

so it officially is my favorite review ever, it has all the right mix of compliments, compliments, do gooding, and compliments. It's.... well just read it yourself:

I feel as though I have written a review of Trim Time before - but I guess not. Better late than never.

Jennifer rocks. No, really. She, and the rest of her staff at Trim Time are awesome.

I like my dogs groomed a certain way - instructions for which I gave Jennifer on our very first visit when the pups were mere weeks old. They are now three years old, and they are always groomed impeccably on every visit, with no reminders of my expectations. (Apparently, Jennifer is either a genius memory savant, or they write it down... I think it is probably the former.) My husband can take the dogs in and not worry that I won't be happy with the results.

Not only is Trim Time awesome, but they give back too. Jennifer has an animal rights blog, and at least twice over the time we have been going there has had charity events (One is coming up on Friday July 3rd!)

If you are looking for a groomer, and you live in the greater Southwestern United States, Jennifer is your woman. I think I would take the dogs to her even if I lived in San Diego. Seriously, she is that good.

to Mrs. Lincoln & Booth, I humbly thank your for all your kind and honest words!

to the one person out there reading this that is competitive, you probably couldn't write a BETTER review than this. Just saying, it was that good.
But TRY IF YOU MUST! ( here, here, here, or here. or you can just click the kudzu button at the top of the page.)
